Hello everybody,
I have a small question around returning events.
Is there a way to show recurring events, spread over several days, correctly?
I have the following problem.
In our village there is an annual event spread over 3 days. Every year the event is scheduled on the 3rd Sunday in June and the 2 previous days (Friday and Saturday).
So, I’ve created an event from 15/06/2018 until 17/06/2018 and let it return every 12 months. For this year, it’s fine but in 2019 there’s an issue. Jevents made an event on Saturday 15/06/2019, Sunday 16/06/2019 and Friday 21/06/2019. This means that each separate day is a third day of the month. Unfortunately the fact of a third day is only applicable on Sunday.
Is there a way for doing this?
Best regards,

Thank you for your reply.
Ok, I will make a repeating event and edit the wrong dates.
Perhaps this topic can be interesting when adding new functions.

Interesting, you could create the repeat. Then edit each individual event it creates to the correct date in that instance.
As aguide I would use a monthly repeating events every 12months on X date on X day.

Unfortunately this method result in corrupt data.
The (3day) event is planned each year in June in the week of the third Sunday of the month.
This means that the number of days will shift every year, below an example.
2018 event is on day 166 to 168
2019 event is on day 165 to 167
2020 event is on day 171 to 173
In my opinion, there’s just only way to fix this issue.
An additional date must be implemented.
This date is needed as fixed marker to calculate the days before or after.
Or is there any other solution to achieve this?

Hello,
Well you can use the yearly repeat and comma separate day's of that year i.e. 120 for 120days into that year? That would work. You can also edit repeats too :-)
Many thanks
Tony

Dear,
Thank you for your support.
With this method the 3 days (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) are staying together.
Unfortunately, it’s the wrong week from 2020 and later. From then the events are placed in the second week of June and it should be the week of the third Sunday in June.
In my opinion, there’s no solution for doing this right now.
Perhaps the developers can add an addition where you can specify just one single day for a multi-day event. This single day can be used for calculation the previous (and/or next) days of this event.
Any advice or workaround?
Best regards,

Dear,
Thank you for the reply.
In case you count backwards you have an issue in 2020. The third last week is from 11/06/2020 until 14/06/2020 but this is the second Sunday of the month. So unfortunately, this way of working won’t solve the problem.

Try setting it to count backwards :-)
