Then we&#8217;d change it so that the event would recur every 4 weeks, and it would display every week for a duration of 6 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Today we hit upon a workaround. It appears that as long as I click the blue &#8220;Update&#8221; button twice, the recurring events are created as expected. Here&#8217;s the procedure I used:<\/p>\n<p>1. Create the event and add recurrence rules<br \/>\n2. Click the blue Update button and let it complete its process<br \/>\n3. Then click the blue Update button again and let it complete its process<\/p>\n<p>It appears that this workaround is working reliably. But I don&#8217;t understand why this is happening.
