Hi Caroline. Thanks for reaching out, and for posting this. I am seeing the issue on your site and appreciate you sharing the links right off the bat (which all too many users forget to do).

I’m wondering if this has something to do with how the event is configured; when I click into it I see that it is set up as a recurring event (http://d.pr/i/m9rP) but recurs only the 1 time. It seems if I understand your goal here, this would make more sense as a standalone two-day event that DOESN’T recur.

Can you try setting it up that way (just disabling the recurrence) and let me know if the issue persists? We can do our best to help address it from there.

OK i did your suggestion and it did make the event appear on the main calendar page … the thing with doing it that way is that the event is 6pm to 2am each day — as opposed to 6pm on Friday until 2am the following night … so i figured re-occurring was the way to go? Thanks for your help!

Hi Caroline. Thanks for the follow-up, and my apologies that this slipped through the cracks until now. So you’re trying to show an event that runs late into the night (technically the next morning), but you don’t want it to show as a two-day event (since it technically isn’t)…right?

If so, there is a setting option that should help you with this: go into Events -> Settings and look for the Multiday Event Cutoff option. Sounds like it’ll help you out here but let me know if not.
