Subject: Request: Limiting returning events
Hey Guys.
I was just wondering if it would be possible to implement the following feature:
You can repeat events, which is really nice. Now it would be even better, if you can limit that repeats. Lets say you would like to repeat an event on a weekly basis, but just for three times (e.g. a seminar).
Is that already possible, or does it need to be implemented?

Alex,
At first, I too found that I could only enter events that would recur forever and not ones that would stop after a certain date or after a set number of occasions. However, it turned out that there is a solution!

Jeff Segars advised me to enable the "Show secondary options (palettes)" box at the foot of the Typo3 page. Sure enough, I could then see an "Until" field. Now I can place an ending date or a maximum number of recurrences for any event. You will find the "Until" appears on the page on which you set the frequency of the recurrence.

Hope that is what you are asking about!?

If not, do forgive me You will need to ask someone else if your question is more complex!

Cheers,
Calum
