Recuring Events
Is there a solution to have recurring events in a calendar other that entering one in for each day?

RE:Recuring Events
Hello,

You can set duration of an event by adding a new field into the CMS.Event document type as it is described below:

1) Go to the Site Manager -> Development -> Document types -> CMS.Event -> Fields

2) Add following field into it:
Column name: EventEndDate
Attribute type: Date and time
Field caption: Event End Date
Form control type: Selector
Form control: Calendar

3) Set dates for your event

4) Update your Event calendar web part with those new fields:
Event start field: EventDate
Event end field: EventEndDate

Best regards,
Jan Hermann

RE:Recuring Events
Thanks for responding. However, I am looking to be able to set an event to repeat on a weekly basis or even a monthly basis. A place where I can say first Friday of of every month or something like every Monday. We'll probably have to build the control ourselves but was hoping that maybe someone had done it already.

Thanks
Lawrence

Hello,

Regrettably, this is not implemented yet, but it should be in next version of Kentico CMS/EMS.

Best regards,

It does not look like this was included in 7. Unless I am missing something.
