    I would like to list recurring events only once.

    http://wordpress.naturkuenstler.de/termine/

    like this (or similar): ‘Winterzauber Kinderyoga, Fridays jan 9 – jan 30, 3-5pm’

    Is there any way to do this?

    thanks!

    [events_list long_events=0]

    See http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=18

    That’s the first thing I tried but it seems to have no effect.

    Sorry, “long_events” is for multiday events. In your case: doesn’t exist, since every recurrence is really an event. Moving this to feature requests (but it’s not an easy one).

    I’d vote for this one too! Thanks for considering!

    I think it can be done with 2 remarks:

    – paging will not work correctly

    – the link will jump to the first future event for the series

    So if you’re willing to accept that, I might start on this ….

    This would work just fine for me – thanks again for considering!

    Just for own reference, this sql might help:

    select * from wp_eme_events where recurrence_id=0 or event_id in (select event_id from wp_eme_events where recurrence_id>0 group by recurrence_id);

    or for limiting to e.g. events starting later than 2013-06-23:

    select event_id, event_name, event_start_date from wp_eme_events where (recurrence_id=0 and event_start_date> '2013-06-23') or event_id in (select event_id from wp_eme_events where recurrence_id>0 and event_start_date> '2013-06-23' group by recurrence_id);

    better select using union:

    select * from wp_eme_events where recurrence_id>0 group by recurrence_id union all
    
select * from wp_eme_events where recurrence_id=0;

    or for limiting to e.g. events starting later than 2013-06-23:

    select * from wp_eme_events where (recurrence_id>0 and event_start_date> '2013-06-23') group by recurrence_id union all
    
select * from wp_eme_events where (recurrence_id=0 and event_start_date> '2013-06-23') ;

    Thanks for posting this, didn’t realize this was here, so sorry for not getting back sooner.

    Running this query resulted in what appeared to be correct results… how is the best way to use this with the shortcodes that exist or create a new one that is compatible?

    I still need to analyze any possible impact of this query, so for now no progress has been made.

    No problem, thanks for the update.

    Implemented in trunk:

    added option ‘show_recurrent_events_once’ to the shortcode eme_events to show recurrent events only once
