I found the solution myself. In the setting I have “Recurring event instances” unchecked and I added this to my functions.php:

function my_events_pre_get_posts( $query ) {

	if(! is_singular( 'tribe_events' ) ) {
		$query->query_vars['tribeHideRecurrence'] = 1;
	}
	return $query;
}
add_action( 'tribe_events_pre_get_posts', 'my_events_pre_get_posts', 1);

On the events list pages I show event date range for recurring events with tribe_get_recurrence_start_dates

Hi, OK that fixed it! But I want to only show the first parent event of recurrent events. Is there a way to enable tribeHideRecurrence checkbox by default?

(I could add ?tribe_paged=1&tribe_event_display=list&tribeHideRecurrence=1 into the navigation link, but is there any “cleaner” way to do it?)

With some more searching I found this function tribe_get_recurrence_start_dates

And it returns all three recurring events correctly.

BUT it only has the start time of each event. And I would like to print each event with

DATE + Start time + End time

So I cannot fully use tribe_get_recurrence_start_dates.

Why this tribe_get_events returns only one recurring event? Same seems to be reported here: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/getting-all-instances-for-recurring-events/

Hi, Thanks Jennifer. That worked and I’m now able to print the parent and the child event dates.

BUT it only works when there is 2 events (one parent and one recurring event for it)

When I add 3 events (one parent and 2 recurring events for it) then the last day is not shown for some reason.

E.g. I have

2018-09-27 (parent)
2018-10-04
2018-10-10

I don’t see the 2018-10-10 event in the child event list. This query returns only one event which is the “2018-10-04”:

				$recurrence_args = array(
					'post_parent'    => $parent_id,
					'meta_key'       => '_EventStartDate',
					'orderby'        => 'meta_key',
					'order'          => 'ASC',
					'fields'         => 'ids',
					'posts_per_page' => -1,
				);

				$child_events = tribe_get_events( $recurrence_args );

Could you still help me what goes wrong with this? Thanks!

I tried to edit my post but I get “ERROR: Forum ID is missing.”

So I wanted to be more clear:

“When viewing either 10.10.2018 or 12.12.2018 event I would like to see in the meta details both event dates:
10.10.2018
12.12.2018”
