It's very common for organizations have meetings on the "3rd Wednesday
of every months" or the "1st Monday of every month". This isn't
possible with the current module.

I've tried a variety of different combinations in the repeat form and can only do:
1) every 3rd Wednesday (not every 3rd Wed. of each month). This happens when "repeat type" is set to "weekly" and interval is set to 3.
OR
2) All Wednesdays in every 3rd month (see screenshot). For example, all Wed. in Jan, April, Jul, October, etc. have the event. This happens when "repeat type" is set to "monthly" and interval is set to 3. This occurs whether or not months are selected from the Month(s) field.

this functionality works fine, i just tested it.

couple of things you may have missed:

  1. in the setup doc, it instructs you that cron is necessary, and you must have at least one cron run completed in order to 'seed' the calendar_map_table. you can get it seeded immediately by installing and enabling the module, and visiting your site's cron.php page
  2. the Day(s) list has a specific selection for '3rd Wednesday'--that select list is huge and contains nearly every possible selection you can think of. yes, the interface is clunky--but it works :)

my settings to get 3rd wednesday of every month:
Repeat type: Monthly
Repeat end date: whenever you want it to end
Interval: 1
Day(s): 3rd Wednesday

everything else unset.

please re-read the install/config instructions for both event and eventrepeat, and take another crack at it :)

Ah! All this time and I never noticed the scroll bar to the right of the days of the week. I just saw Sat thru Sun and that indicated to my brain that was all there was to choose from. You might want to consider lengthening that selection box a bit for other boobs like me who might come along.

Thanks!

Determines what day(s) of the week/month this event repeats on (by day of the week). Lots of options available, scroll down!

missed that, section, eh? :P

No I actually read that. For whatever reason (tired?), I thought the recommendation to "scroll down" referred to the page, not the list.
