"Repeats Weekly" not repeating weekly

[Warren Castille]

This is something I'm curious about: When scheduling an event on the Calendar, clicking the "recurring event" button doesn't actually make the event recur on the calender. Is that just an FYI thing, so people know it returns? Or is it supposed to actually repeat itself on the calendar? I've just been editing the Grindstone's dates to keep it in the coming events block, but if this is something not Working As Intended © I wanted to bring it to light.

So I made a test for myself so it was private.

 

Adjust your Finish time. Make the year like 2018.

[Warren Castille]

That worked. For some reason! Thanks!

[Kage]

Whoot.

 

I confirmed it when I checked the HoD and other Tavern nights and saw that they too had a far-off year in the future. Glad it worked out.

 

 

((It's... not very intuitive imo))

Yeah, the calendar interface is a little weird. When you set an event as repeating, the "end date" -- which normally means when the event ends -- turns into "when the repeat ends." It's working as intended according to the MyBB developers, even if it's entirely strange.

...that makes perfect sense in a completely nonsensical way. Thanks for clearing that up, both you and Kage!
