That’s fine, and it accurately reflects the title of the event “My Annual Event, Day 1, Challenge 1, November 1”. So I want to clone this event, reschedule it for the next day, and just change a few details. I click “Duplicate Recurring Event” and make my changes. Then, because I want to keep cloning to make more recurring events, I click “Duplicate” again, change the details, and save. Then again, “Duplicate”, lather-rinse-repeat. All seems to be going fine.

I expected the permalink slug for the published event to be updated when I changed the title, similar to how it works with Posts and Pages. Instead, after several duplications, the permalink looks like this:

my-annual-event-day-1-challenge-1-november-1-copy-copy-copy-2024-11-04

Is there any way to fix this?

I’m trying to follow along with the grouping tutorial here but I’m stuck either only showing a single instance of a recurring event and nothing else, or I’m showing all events including every instance of a recurring event.

Has anyone had better luck figuring this out? Is there a different event plugin that will work better while being free? Thanks for your assistance!

Is there a way to display the different dates separately when listing events? Even if it’s through a second plugin, I would appreciate the recommendations. Thank you!

I created a recurring event.
When I click on an occurrence, I would like to have the list of other occurrences (if they are not passed).
Is it possible ?
If yes, how to do it please?

Thank you in advance for your help

Is it possible to set the form in a way that a user can see the form only once a day ?
So if you submitted the form on monday, you have to wait till tuesday to submit the form again ?
Like a recurring event but user-based?

For example : User Paul submitted the form on Monday, so he has to wait to submit the form again until tusday… but if User Harry comes online on Monday, he can still submit the form ?

I use Search & Filter Pro to filter my events. It works great except that the date format between the two plugins are incompatible. S&F wants YYYYMMDD and EM creates YYYY-MM-DD.

To filter, I create a hook with ACF to copy the event dates in two custom fields that I can use with S&F.

My problem is that it doesn’t work with the recurring events.

Is there a hook with EM that I can use to copy the dates (in ACF) after each event is created and before it’s saved in the database ?

Here is the code I’m using :

// Convert Events Manager dates yyyy-mm-dd to yyyymmdd and save to an ACF field, for Search & Filter Pro to use

function save_event_meta( $post_id ){

if (get_post_type($post_id) == 'event'):

$filter_event_start_date = date("Ymd", strtotime(get_post_meta($post_id, '_event_start_date', true)));
$filter_event_end_date = date("Ymd", strtotime(get_post_meta($post_id, '_event_end_date', true)));

update_field( 'filter_event_start_date', $filter_event_start_date , $post_id );
update_field( 'filter_event_end_date', $filter_event_end_date , $post_id );

endif;

}
add_action('acf/save_post', 'save_event_meta', 20); // run before ACF saves the $_POST['fields'] data

Thanks !

thanks in advance
