Adding multiple dates to an entry saves time when creating recurring sessions, multi-date events, or courses. This article explains how to add several dates to a single entry and manage different times, including tips for recurring events.
Recurring schedule
To set up a recurring schedule:
Open your Scheduling page, then add a new entry, or select your existing entry, then Edit entry:
Select the Dates & Times tab to open the dates and times settings, where you can tailor the schedule's date/time/duration.
Add the Start date, Start time and Duration of the event (or tick the All day event checkbox).
If your entry has multiple dates that occur at the same time each day/week/month, you can set up a repeating event by ticking the Repeating event checkbox:
You can tailor how often that particular time repeats by minutes, hours, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.
Once you're happy with the dates/times, select Save at the bottom to add them to your entry. If you need to add any more dates/times, select Add another date/time.
Repeating event settings
How often does it repeat?
Use the How often does it repeat? drop-down menu to select if the event repeats in minutes or hours, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.
Every x minutes/hours/days/weeks/months/years
Use the text box field after Every to input how often it repeats (depending on the selection made under How often does it repeat?).
Repeat on days of week
The Repeat on days of week option only appears if you select Repeat weekly from the How often does it repeat? drop-down. Select the days which this time repeats.
Repeat until
Use the Repeat until option to set an end date for your recurring time. You can choose between Forever (no end date), Until a set date (and select the specific date) or For a number of events (and enter many repeats)
💡 Remember to select Save to save your changes once completed:
💡 To note:
If your duration is less than 1 hour, please add a '0' in the Hour box.
You cannot have a "Forever" occurrence on entries with course tickets.
Schedule with varying dates/times
Add varying dates and times to the same entry by selecting Add another date/time in the top right-hand corner of the Dates & Times setup:
You can tailor each new time/date you add, whether a single date/time or another repeating event. This is particularly useful if you have an event that, for example, runs on a Monday and Tuesday at the same time or you would like to offer a one-off date.
💡 To note: Any dates you add sit under the same entry information. If you'd like to set up a special, one-off event (with different information/pricing), you must set up a new entry. Alternatively, you can duplicate your entry and edit the new, duplicated entry separately from the original.
