Hi,<\/p>\n

We have just purchased the events calendar PRO and are looking into the way recurring events work.
\nCan anyone please help explain the ‘Exclusions’ section of a new recurring event?<\/p>\n

Say we have a weekly event running from May to November, but not over school summer holidays (i.e. 6 weeks in July \/ August) . How do we set up the exclusions to cover this?<\/p>\n

If I use the exclude weekly, there is only an ‘end’ date for the exclusion. How do you set an exclusion range to be from July – August? Using this end date seems to schedule the exclusion to happen from ‘now’. Is there no corresponding ‘start’ date for an exclusion window?<\/p>\n

Do I have to add a ‘Once’ exclusion for every week of the summer holidays?<\/p>\n

Any help appreciated, thanks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1338034","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nRecurring events, excluding a date range -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/recurring-events-excluding-a-date-range\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Recurring events, excluding a date range -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi, We have just purchased the events calendar PRO and are looking into the way recurring events work.
