[QUOTE][u]Quote by: Laugh[/u][p]Isn't this where an event group would come in?  You could create multiple events for the group to cover this instead of having a complex user interface that most normal users may have a problem understanding.

I also think recurring events indefinitely is needed for holidays, bithdays, etc... Why not have an end date for the calender of 5 years or something (has to be a set date).  If the admin wants to advance the end date then a script would be run that would insert more recurring events.  I can't see many sites needing a calendar that looks beyond a couple of years at the most.

[QUOTE][u]Quote by: jmucchiello[/u][p]I would amend advanced to say there can be multiple advanced options. For example I could want an event that is every 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month. Or the first Sunday and 3rd Wednesday of the month. Or how about M, W, F this week, T and TH next week and so on for the next 3 months.

I also think that recurring indefinitely is a tall order since the easiest way to do recurring event is to create a database record for each "instance" of the event.[/p][/QUOTE][/p][/QUOTE]
