  • [Beta9.1] Event detail for repeating event shows first date rather than selected date...


    Hello,

    To reproduce the problem:

    • Create an event that repeats every Sunday. I created an event on 5th Jan 2025 for 10:00-12:00 and set it to repeat every Sunday.
    • View the calendar (e.g. month view) and the event correctly shows as repeating.
    • Hover over one of the repeats (19th or 26th or whatever) and the date of the event shows up correctly. OK so far!
    • Click one of the repeats - for example, 26th Jan. The date of the event now incorrectly shows as 5th Jan.

    The above is the detail for the event on 26th Jan 2025. As you can see, the date is given as 5th Jan which is incorrect.

    5th Jan is (of course) the start date for the repeating sequence - but we don't need that as it is repeating the information shown on the next line (underlined) where it states the start date and the details of the repeat.

    Our users complain about this behaviour. They expect the correct date to be displayed - that is the date of the calendar entry that they clicked.

    Thanks.

    John

    This one will probably have to be on hold until 5.x. We have some improvements we want to make for recurring events, and this issue should be handled as part of that. Unfortunately there isn't a simple way to fix this right now.

    Fair enough!

    Now, that's interesting... Will you be including "first Sunday of month", "last Sunday of month" (which might be 4th or 5th depending upon the number of Sundays in the month), "3rd Sunday of month" and other variations on those themes?

    Thanks.

    I don't think we've thought that far ahead yet. 😬
