Is this custom field a calendar field? Or a simple text field?
The date ranges only work on fields that are stored as actual dates in the database (yyyy-mm-dd with optional time: hh:mm:ss).
Can you give me (super) admin and (s)ftp access so I can take a look?
And tell me on what url I can see/reproduce the issue.
You can use the 'Confidential information' button in the forum editor to hide sensitive information.
It's the most embarassing thing, but I just re-added the syntax mentioned in the original post so you can see the issue. And guess what, now it works. So it was obviously my mistake (` instead of ' or something like that ...?).
So sorry to have bothered you! Super user and FTP accounts were already ready for you 😉.

Anyway, thanks again for your great support and of course for this outstanding component!
Sort of a follow-up question here - if you can spare the time. Is it possible to show the 4 future articles closest to the current date and then if some "pass" the current date, show the ones from the past (if there aren't 4 in the future anymore)?
So if today is the 30st of August and we have these articles:
- 9th of September
- 8th of September
- 3rd of September
- 2nd of September
Then let's say today is the 4th of September and there aren't any Articles after the 9th, it still shows the 3rd and the 2nd of September instead. Do you know what I mean?
I just don't seem to have enough "memory" in my head to figure this out using the manual ?. But I suspect you do ... but no hurries!
I don't see how Articles Anywhere could manage that is a single tag.
I recommend you solve this via custom php. At least to get the list of article ids, which you could then pass to the Articles Anywhere tag.
