   Hi, I have just installed the Events Manager Beta 3 and am searching for how to create recurring events. I see the "When" from-to but don't see an option for recurring, frequency, etc. The option is enabled in the Settings.

   I'm sure I'm missing something -- thanks for any insight.

   (I've installed the plugin on two separate sites, but the issue occurs on both...)

   Have switched themes and disabled all plugins -- still no recurrence window in new or existing event post.

   Is there somewhere else I could look for information on how to diagnose this problem?

   you need to firstly make sure recurrences are enabled and you have the right recurrence capabilities in your events settings page.

   next, recurrences are now under a different menu item in your Events admin menu, you add a recurring event rather than an event which you make recurring.

   Thanks so much for getting back.

   Recurrences are enabled in the General Options Settings, and for Administrator role -- I'm logged in as that.

   I created one normal Event which appears in the Events EM admin menu. I see the Recurring Events submenu in the Events admin; it lists no recurring events and I don't see anyway to add any there or in the Add Event submenu.

   I'm probably blind - could you pass along one last hint? Is there still a setting I'm missing?

   there should be an 'add new' link next to the page title

   Something's not right. There's no 'add new' next to any page/post title anywhere, no matter how I add it, not in a list, not in Add Event (only 'When' ), not in Recurring Events tab (a list with no way to create a new one).

   Should there be an 'Add New' Recurring Event tab in the EM Admin menu?

   Would love to use this plugin for a number of sites, and will go Pro when I do, but I won't be able to unless I can get recurring events to work. Happy to send along screen shots, links, etc. Installed on two separate sites, disabled all other plugins, on WP 3.3 and using Twenty-Eleven to test.

   Thanks again for any help...know you must be busy. Sorry to be such a pain. Just looks like a great plugin, hope it works out.

   Do you see an 'add new' link for normal events or posts/pages next to those titles? If not, something's not right there.

   another thing to check is you have the right permissions/caps (see Events > Settings)

    Found it.

    Deleted and reinstalled. Clicked Recurring Events tab, found the 'Add Recurring Event' at the very top of the page next to the title.

    Glad it was me. Thanks again for your persistence.
