Component body

This module allows you to recur nodes based on repeating criteria. Only nodes that contain date fields can be recurred. The recurring process will automatically generate copies of the node, changing the date to represent the recurring pattern. This is useful for administrators that do not want to use Date Repeat for recurrences because separate nodes are required (for whatever reason).

Dependencies

Installation and setup

  1. Install the module as you would any other.
  2. Have a node type with a date field. The field must be required and have a maximum of one value. The field can have an end-date, if desired.
  3. Edit the node type, and navigate to the "Node recur" vertical tab. Enable recurring, and set the other options as desired.
  4. Toggle permissions to your liking.
  5. Depending on your configuration, the recur options will be on the node-add form, and there will be a link visible when viewing a node (only of the types that have recurring enabled).

Recurring options

There are currently two types of recurring options available.

  1. Pick the days of the week
  2. Every N period, where N is a number, and period can be days, weeks,
    or months

Bulk/chain editing and deleting

This module provides no way to bulk/chain edit/delete nodes that are generated in sequences. To do this, it's recommended that you simply use Views bulk operations.
