Hey folks..
Been thinking about a problem I have with GL, and I think I've found a
solution. My want is recurring events, so here's my take on how to do this.
1) Add a table called events_recurring.
2) Allow additional dates to be added to existing events.
3) Modify the calendar code to search for date ranges in events
and events_recurring tables.
4) Modify the calendar code to show the 'recurring' date.
5) Create the usual templates/authority/etc for the mod.
Now, this will allow an admin to add *individual* date/time entries to
an event. Now, whilst this isn't a true recurring date system, it is
much more flexible ... it's hard (next to impossible) to get any current
recurring system out there to make a date appear over a range AND appear
on a seperate date, and NOT appear on a number of the recurrent dates.
This sort of thing ..
