[Hidden-tech] Joomla Eventlist component Recurring events

[Town Websites]

I haven't used Eventlist for a while but think you may need to create two
events to do that, one on first and another on 3rd Fridays.

 

I've switched to using GCalendar ( http://g4j.laoneo.net/content/ ) which I
feel more comfortable customizing and which has very good developer support,
as well as being based on Google calendar so the back end is  well known and
supported.  However, as best I can tell from trying, google calendar also
lacks a mechanism to define a single repeating event to do something like
first and third Fridays.  If anyone does know how do to that, please fill us
in!

 

I like GCalendar because it has a custom front end, rather than simply
loading an IFrame of the google calendar page.  Thus you can tweak the
modules to match your site's objectives.  GCalendar's main weakness I know
of is that it fetches data from google  via the xml data API, which can add
a couple seconds of page load time to the site.  With caching enabled, that
isn't a big issue, but I've been tempted to fiddle with adding some sort of
automatic caching that would fetch info from the google server so it
wouldn't need to be fetched during a client's page load.

Does anyone know how to set a recurring event to repeat the first and third
Fridays of every month? I can't get this to work.

 

Any help gratefully accepted.
