Delete a recurring event? was created by Eoin Feeney
I've done mad with the recurring events. what's the best way to delete them all?
Also, in doing so i fI do the dropdown to "all" my page white screens. Perhaps there should be some error checking?

I used PHP admin to drop the table and then reinstalled it

Crap. That was a bad idea. Didn't work.

Instead of drop the table, you should only truncate the table #__eb_events. Otherwise, go to Events Booking -> Events, and delete all of those events should work, too
For now, what's the issue you are having? Do you need help from us?

There were thousands of events so going to Booking -> Events wouldn't work. I did too high a recurring number.
Dropping the table worked, but then I could not use the component obviously.
Reinstalling the component didn't reinstall the table.
Uninstalling the component and reinstalling it worked. I'll try to truncate the table next time. All sorted, I only posted this information in case someone else has the same issue.

I see. Please note that if you drop the table, you will need to uninstall the extension and re-install it to have the table created again

But you only lose the data in the dropped table right? Obviously dropping the table loses all of your events

If you only want to empty children events of a certain event, you can run a SQL command like below
DELETE FROM #__eb_events WHERE parent_id = ID_OF_PARENT_EVENT
ID_OF_PARENT_EVENT is id of the event which you want to delete all children events. By doing that, you will only delete data of that recurring event, not all events
