Recurrence Display Trouble

[Anonymous]

Here’s what I am working on: http://wordpress.naturkuenstler.de/termine/

the first two paragraphs list single events, which work just fine. The third header (under ‘Wöchentliche Kurse’) lists recurring events (most of them occur weekly). I used ‘#_RECURRENCEDESC’ to pull the duration of the event, which is great, BUT the way the dates are displayed (Von 2013-02-21 bis 2013-03-21) doesn’t work in German. Where can I change that? or would there be another placeholder I can use instead?

The second problem I have with recurring dates is that every single recurrence is displayed. The website owner wants to have people sign up for the event block only, not for the single events, and would like to have them displayed only once as well. Right now when I click on a recurrent date it only shows this one date, and the user doesn’t even know that this is a whole month of seminars he is buying here. Even with ‘Startdate – Enddate (#M #d, #Y – #@M #@d, #@Y)’ the same date is just displayed twice. What am I missing?

The third problem is with the widget on the right side of this page: http://wordpress.naturkuenstler.de/

the first four dates that are showing have already expired, but don’t go away. I am using the event list widget, where I left the default for ‘Scope of the events’ as ‘future’. ‘Show Ongoing Events?’ is not checked. Do I need to do anything else that I can’t see?

thanks so much for your help and your great plugin!

I ust checked the code and I see that the #_RECURRENCEDESC doesn’t take the WP preferences into account for date-ranges. I’ll change that (moving to bugs for this).

And I’m confused: either it is a multiday-event, or it is a recurrent event. I think you want a multiday-event, if people should write up for the full month.

For already expired events appearing: check your event definitions, either the end-date is not set, or (typically for recurring events): you confused the end-date for a “single” occurence with the end-date of the recurrent series.

Ok, fixed with some extra cleanups here:
