Hi there,<\/p>\n

Our client has just reported problems with their events calendar listing. I’m assuming it’s related to recurring events. We had it set to create events 12 months ahead. I’m not sure what the total was before, but now it’s around 60,000, and the listing on the front is frequently timing out.<\/p>\n

I’ve reduced the setting to only create for 4 months ahead but there’s still the same number of posts. How do I get it to purge?<\/p>\n

Past that, I’m wanting to investigate if this is simply having a too long a range for creating recurring events, or if there’s a problem here. I’ve updated to the latest version of the plugin (and PRO, which I use). Have you had any issues recently that might relate to this? Where should I start for diagnosing the problem?<\/p>\n

Cheers,<\/p>\n
