Hi John,
Yes and no 🙂 You can make a recurring event and then go in and edit the individual instances, but that will break those instances out of the recurrence pattern. So if you did make changes and then wanted to make changes to the whole series, that would not be possible. Also, events would not show as part of a recurring series on the front end. But if that’s not important to you, then you could use them as you describe. Does that answer your question?
Best,
Leah
