Which one are you trying to edit, and edit how? I want to duplicate what you are doing.

[Hollis Brown]

Delete what's there. Start from the beginning.

Step one - Create three day Event - Should not have Start and End Times -Just Start and End Date

[Daniel Abrams]

Can you do this step, and let me know when done?

[Hollis Brown]

Can you do this step, and let me know when done?

I can't. I try to create three-day Event October 1 - 3. Requires End Day be Same as Start Day.

[Daniel Abrams]

I created a 3 day event. What am I missing?

[Hollis Brown]

Okay,

So, we're first creating Day 1 and then adding two day for a total of 3 days. Seems a little weird, but okay.

Then Day 1 is different from all the other days. Day one is a kind of master day. If I delete other dates, for instance, all I delete is that day. If I delete day 1, all days are deleted. Little bit weirder, but okay...

I guess it's okay. Seems like it's going to be confusing. I thought we were going to step 1 - select number of days and create all those days with some kind of umbrella over all, or wrapper around, the days. This seems more intuitive than the way it is where day 1 is created in a different step than the other days and then has super powers.

So, add ability to select number days event runs when you initially create an event? And later, you can add days as you can now. Yes?

It's because Events was not setup for what we are doing - including the database. I could add an instruction that makes admin aware of this.

That's what I was afraid of. Are we digging our whole deeper, by moving forward with a compromise?

[Daniel Abrams]

I'll do the first thing shortly, and look at the other tomorrow.

[Hollis Brown]

K
I'm crashing

[Daniel Abrams]

Go for it. Instead I'm gonna focus on the second thing, and think about it over the next day or so.

[Daniel Abrams]

Came up with a solution I think works. Involves addition of new database table. Yes?

[Hollis Brown]

Go for it!!

[Daniel Abrams]

Have a look. what do you think?

[Hollis Brown]

I knew you could do it. Thinking out loud:

• Seems like Admin should be able to set Dates (not times) for Main Event
• Not showing on front end yet?
• Sub-events should be color-coded to differentiate from Days
• When creating Days, Admin selects Date and Time. I'm thinking maybe they should edit Title and Summary at that time also.
