      @sdetweil Thanks for the reply.

      I have the maximumEntries: 100 but only the initial event displays and does not recur.

      Any other ideas?

        @oldrocker can you show me the calendar config from config.js. just xxx out the url

        and can you show me the event from the ICS file

        to get the ICS file, open a terminal window and do

        curl -sL  the_url > somefile.txt
        

        the edit the somefile.txt and locate the event, and post it here
        change any text you are not willing to share

        BEGIN:VEVENT
        .
        .
        .
        END:VEVENT

            @oldrocker said in Calendar Not Displaying Recurring Events:

            broadcastPastEvents: true,
            maximumEntries: 100,
            maximumNumberOfDays: 365,

            these parms are not calendar specific, they need to be above the calendars:[] list
            and the first/last are the same as their default value

            in the config options doc,

            the first section applies to ALL calendars

            the later section applies to each calendar entry. { url:…}

            also

            the master event with the start:/dtend is not present in the list you showed

              @sdetweil Sorry, I’ve made a mess out of my config file the past three days figuring this out. I used the CalDav 3rd party module to create ics file, so if it’s not correct, I suppose I should download the ics directly from my calendar to troubleshoot. Perhaps the problem is in CalDav and I’m asking the questions in the wrong forum.

              For a work-around, I can use the public subscription to the calendar just fine but the recurrences are shifted over one day like in a previous post in this forum you participated in. I looked at the calendarutils.js you mention in that posting for modification but I don’t see the lines that should be modified. I would rather use the ics method but will use this export method if I can get the events to be in the correct day. Can you help me with that?

                  Here it is. I’d rather not have a public subscription out there but it is what it is.

                    @oldrocker yeh, I added that code already to attempt to fix this. but the rule lib keeps giving back junk. I haven’t found a way to fix this.

                        There should be RRULES in the file. Could you find?
