Recurring events with complicated dates/times

[Daniel]

Hi, I’m wondering about creating recurring events with more complex scheduling. For instance, I got an email from a community events user who wanted help creating these performances of a show:

Friday, August 19 at 7:30 p.m.
Saturday, August 20 at 4:00 p.m.
Saturday, August 20 at 8:00 p.m.
Sunday, August 21 at 1:00 p.m.
Sunday, August 21 at 5:00 p.m.

I did it, but had to make an amalgam of custom events to make it work. I’d love if I could create one event with these recurrence dates/times. Any thoughts? If it’s not possible yet, might it be in the works?

Howdy Daniel,

I would love to help you with this.

That is possible right now using the “Custom recurrence” option. When you create your recurrence pattern select custom, weekly, then choose your date and time. If this is only happening that one week, then tell it to end after 1 event. Now do that for each of the 5 dates and times, and you’re set!

Does that all make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know.

Cheers!
