Is it possible to set an event to run every 2 weeks (alternating weeks) or is it only possible to do it weekly? Looking at the event manager it would appear only weekly but I’m hoping there’s another way.
Im also asking for this before but seems not to be any available ways
Not possible.
[quote=“Torben, post:3, topic:9702”]Not possible.[/quote]Is this something for future versions or in v5.x? GMail for example offers following options for calendars recurring events.
If you choose Weekly then a new box appears asking how often.
In order to say something like “every two weeks”, you must remember the start date of the event, that is, the date that it was first executed. Google Calendar does store this information, but mAirList’s Event Scheduler does not (it is “stateless”, so to say). So that won’t work so easily.
Another option would be to use a condition like “only in odd ISO 8601 week numbers”, but then there is the problem that most years have 52 ISO weeks, but some have 53, so at the end of those years, you end up with two odd weeks in a row.
And what about the people who wish to run an event only “on the first and third Saturday each month”?
Not sure what the easiest, “generic” solution is here.
