Recurring events not showing in Ubuntu time and date indicator

Open FMuro opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Hi Mateusz, I made a review about one month and a half ago about how much I like this extension and suggesting that all instances of recurring events appeared in the indicator, believing this would be a new feature. I've now realized that you answered saying this was unexpected, so here I am to file a bug report.

I'm on an up-to-date Ubuntu 15.10. If I click on the time and date indicator, I can see the calendar with some bold-faced numbers and a list of events. Bold faced numbers correspond to days with a recorded event. If I have a recurring event called "bowling" which happens all Wednesdays starting on January 1st (assuming it's Wednesday). Then January 1st would be in bold face, and if I select that day I'll see "bowling" in the list. But the following Wednesday, January 8th, won't be bold face unless there is another event, and if I click on it I won't see "bowling".

It would be great to have this fixed. It would also be great that we could choose to see in the list of events, those which are just for today, or for the day we click in.

Thanks a lot for this extension, it's really useful for me, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this. Thanks!!!!

Thanks for the feedback.

Could you tell me how this event was created? Did you get invitation from Gmail, Exchange(Outlook), created on your own? What addons do you have installed? I need to know how to recreate this issue step by step. The following steps work for me:

  1. Open Thunderbird
  2. Go to Calendar
  3. Right click on any day > New Event > Set repeat to weekly
  4. Check right top calendar, one day in each week should be bold.

Regarding to filtering the list of events it is not up to this addon. It populates datetime indicator see
