Getting all instances for recurring events

[Dan Feeley]

I was following this example to get all the instances for a recurring event and it works perfectly everywhere:

• Functions.php – works
• Custom plugin – works
• EC Template file – works

HOWEVER, if I select “Recurring event Instances” (Show only the first instance of each recurring event (only affects list-style views).) in the settings. It no longer works everywhere.

• Functions.php – still works
• Custom plugin – only returns one instance
• EC Template file – only returns one instance

I am trying to use this in a custom plugin (and we do use that setting), is there a better way to get all the recurring instances?

Hello Dan,

Thanks for reaching out!

We have a function that you might be able to use: tribe_get_recurrence_start_dates()

Will this help you move forward or do you need more help?

Cheers,
Andras

It looks like that will do the job, thanks.

Cool! Let me know if you need any more info, I will leave the topic open for now.

Note, if there is no movement here for 3-4 weeks, then it will be automatically closed.

It would be great if you could share your solution afterwards. I’m sure it could be helpful for others as well.

Cheers,
Andras

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
