I have a view set up listing dates events. The setup, if I remember correctly now, included a date CCK field, a custom content type for "Events", and then setting up a view to list the 5 next upcoming events.

It is working, but there are a couple of things I cannot seem to correct.

  1. In one event, I have 5 total recurring events. The event repeats for 5 days. The view shows the first date and time for all 5 days instead of listing each date separately. So it lists like this:

    EventName
    Sunday, February 12, 2011 - 6:00pm
    EventName
    Sunday, February 12, 2011 - 6:00pm
    EventName
    Sunday, February 12, 2011 - 6:00pm
    EventName
    Sunday, February 12, 2011 - 6:00pm
    EventName
    Sunday, February 12, 2011 - 6:00pm



    Instead, what I would like to see is:

    EventName
    Sunday, February 12, 2011 - 6:00pm
    EventName
    Monday, February 13, 2011 - 7:00pm
    EventName
    Tuesday, February 14, 2011 - 7:00pm
    EventName
    Wednesday, February 15, 2011 - 7:00pm
    EventName
    Thursday, February 16, 2011 - 7:00pm


  2. I would like to be able to list separate times for different dates in same event - is that possible at all?
  3. Just realized one other item I've yet to find how to change as well: How can I eliminate the line in the first event that says, "Repeats every day 5 times . "?

I'm hoping it's something simple that I'm missing. Can anyone shed any light on this? My example actually shows both issues in one, hopefully the example makes it pretty obvious.

Thanks for any suggestions, references, tips, etc..

I wish I could help with both questions but I think the repeat rule is under structure, content type, 'event' (whatever you called it), then manage display go to the date field click the sunshine button (don't know what it is called) and you will see the option for the repeat rule to display or be hidden.

Thanks, I had found that option a while back as well. And actually, I now have 2 out of the 3 items covered.

The option for whether or not to display the repeat message - pretty easy one, I had just overlooked it.
Showing each day correctly - so showing Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc... vs repeating the same day.

The only thing I don't have set yet is showing a different time for each day. THAT, I think, may just be a limitation in the module design, but not certain yet. I've seen it asked a couple other times, and so far no solution to that one. Oh well.

Hi! How did you fix it so it shows the correct date/time on the repeating events?

I'm having the same issue. Thanks!
