Problem with recurring events and site wide search

[johnpokeefe]

Hi, We have constructed a general purpose arts promotion site using The Events Calendar Pro that accepts ‘events’ (viewed via the calendar or selection from a grid of associated featured images (flyers)) – and Posts (typically press releases or information about training opportunities etc.)

Problem is that when using the standard WP Search Widget, it returns every instance of a relevant recurring event in a list view. Not helpful when an event runs for three weeks!

How can we turn this off so that only the first occasion is shown (+ annotation saying that it repeats)?

Your help would be appreciated.
