I'm creating courses as events for a scuba store.  They usually follow a reoccurring pattern but not always so I've created individual events for every date.  This creates a massive number of events to change when there is a simple change, such a s price increase.  Is there a way to create a reoccurring series and then delete one, or to enter dates similar to variants?  I would use variants but then it wouldn't show on calendar.

Ideally it would handle problems like event every 1st & 3rd weekend, except May, with an extra class 2nd weekend of July & August.

Hi Sam,

Our current recurring event logic could handle patterns such as "every 3rd Wednesday" but could not handle the "not in May" part. As your recurring date pattern has quite a lot of human determined logic, what I would suggest is we add a new option in the existing "recurring interval" setting named "manually entered dates". Here you could enter all the dates that would like the event to recur on, that way you only have a single event in the admin to update and it would allow you to add / remove dates as per your needs.

If you would like a quote to implement the above please email me nigel@cartviper.com and we can discuss this further.

Regards
Nigel.
