Calendar Recurring By Day Week, etc

[Worldoversea]

How do you add a recurring event (example meeting) that happens every second Tuesday of every month at 8 PM?

You can't!

This would be a handy feature indeed to add to the Calendar in that I have users that meet for certain events every other Tuesday or a every second Thursday of every month at a certain time.

Rather than enter this for the entire year on separate entries, you enter once and your done!

Many thanks.

I need such recurring events too - every second tuesday in every month, p.e. I am surprised that this is not possible - it's a standard feature in other software :ermm:

[Claudia999]

Can we hope for this feature in 3.1.3?

[Claudia999]

Can somebody of IPS talk about this "bug" or when we can have a solution, in which version of IP.B? It's a standard feature in other community software :(

I really would be interested in this, considering we use this for our municipal/goverment website.

This is an important feature! More organizations set their monthly meeting date this way rather than say the 7th of each month.

[SteveOrM3L]

Still waiting to hear about any consideration of expanding the options.

I too would like to add my voice to have recurring events added to the calendar

Add my voice to this one too. Still waiting for an improved Calendar with better RSVP events and topic creation for events. Maybe this all fits in same process.

I can do recurring events in weeks,months,year and set if it is an all day event or a specific time event on my forum 3.1.4


I do it for all military events and it works nice, this is the standard and no hooks for this.

We mean something other - recurring events like "every first tuesday in every month" or even "every first tuesday of every second month". We don't mean "every 15. in every month". ;)

Im all for calendar improvements. There aren't many kick ass online calendars for CMS/CCS out there.

Add me to the list. I asked about this WAAAAAAAAAAAAY back in 2.1.x. It is a standard issue for anyone using a calendar for a club of any sort. Our membership meeting is the second Wednesday of every month, BOD meeting is 1st Wed. of every month. Just about EVERY other calendar software I have researched has this capability. It would save me a TON of time, and I always forget where I stopped adding the damn things. On top of that, I can't copy an event - another would-be-nice-to-have feature. At least that way, I could copy the 1 meeting, and just keep changing the date. But no, I have to type in all the body of the event, and the title of the event EVERY month. Gets really old, really quick.

PLEASE - I can't believe it is that complicated to add this logic to the calendar.

[Claudia999]

In current 3.2 preview this feature is not yet implemented. I don't understand. In vBulletin is this a feature since many years. What's the problem? Or can we hope for this feature in gold version?

[megmeyer]

No lie. Apparently, they want me to switch to joomla, and some other forums software. I can't believe this is STILL an issue.

Staff, Please, please revisit this issue. You have added many wonderful features to the updated Calender, but without this one feature, the application is nearly unusable to many whose boards deal with clubs that schedule there weekly/monthly events via this format.
