Wordpress Events Made Easy Show Recurring Events Only Once
Recurring events are events that occur more than one time. You can schedule these events to reoccur after a certain time or on a certain day, date, or month of the year.
Repeated events or recurring events are similar to alarms. This means that the alarm will go on at the same time every day, repeatedly. Similarly, a WordPress calendar with recurring events helps you set repeating events on specific days, weeks, months, or years.
EventPrime Recurring Events extension helps you to create this type of event. It simply eliminates the manual labor of creating one event again and again.
What are WordPress Events Calendar and Recurring Calendar Events?
The WordPress event calendar is a plugin calendar for your WordPress website. This modern event calendar helps you add or mark your upcoming calendar events.
Whereas, calendar recurring events are repeating events that occur regularly. Instead of adding these events to the WordPress calendar over and over, you can simply set these events on repeat, automatically.
You can completely customize the recurrence pattern as per your needs. For events that repeat, you can also specify the type of repetition and how many times such recurring events occur.
Here are a few examples of recurring event pattern:
- Weekly on Thursdays at 9:00 AM, until December 31, 2021.
- Every weekday at 7:00 AM, until May 30, 2021.
- On the first Monday of every month at 11:00 AM, for 6 times.
- Yearly on June 14.
This is how you can set repeating events on a WordPress event calendar.
