Reoccurring event every 14 days

    Hello!

    So far the plugin works great! However, there’s one issue I’m having: I need to set events that reoccur every 14 days, counting only week days. When I try to set such an event, the setting always jumps back to an reoccurrence of every 1 day after saving. Setting an event every 7 days, for example, does work just fine though. So I assume there’s a problem with the two digits..?

    So that I understand correctly, this is an event that would occur, for example, on Monday, August 7th, then on Friday, August 25th, 14 weekdays later?

    Exactly!

    OK – this fairly unusual recurring schedule has exposed two separate bugs with the recurring by weekdays cycle. The first was that I was only getting the first digit of the number in the value used when I generated the recurrence dates, which in this case ended up as 1. If you’d gone for 23 days, it would have been 2.

    The second is a bit more complicated, and is because this specific query is 14, which is a multiple of 7, and is triggering a math bug in calculating weeks. I’m working on it, but this will definitely require a release to fix the problem!

    Best,
    Joe

    This should be resolved in the latest release. Please let me know if it doesn’t work for you!
