I would like to propose a feature enhancement for Event Manager that would significantly improve event scheduling flexibility and user experience for both administrators and front-end visitors.Current Challenge & Proposed Solution Currently, multi-session events spanning a date range cannot easily reflect custom recurring days (e.g., sessions held specifically every Wednesday, or every Tuesday and Friday).We would love to see a "Recurring / Custom Days" option introduced alongside Event Start Date and Event End Date. This would allow organisers to select specific recurring days of the week within the event timeframe.Example Use Case & Front-end Output For a workshop running across several specific days within a range:
  • Selected Rule: Every Wednesday within the date range
  • Front-end Display:
    • Event Dates:
      • 14/10/2026
      • 21/10/2026
      • 28/10/2026
    • Event Time: 2:30 pm – 5:00 pm
Why This Benefits the Community
  • Reduces Admin Workload: Eliminates the need to create duplicate single-day events or manually list session dates in the description field.
  • Clearer for Attendees: Gives participants an instant, unambiguous schedule of all session dates in one single registration flow.
  • Cleaner UI/UX: Streamlines event listings across the site.
