One of the entities in our CRM database is industry conferences, webinar series etc. - basically, events that we could attend for prospecting purposes.

Some of them are one-off, some are annual but on slightly different dates every time (eg. San Francisco Climate Week - usually last week of September), some are monthly (e.g. a webinar every second Tuesday of the month)

I would love to be able to put all of these on a calendar.

Right now the best idea I can come up with is to have a schema with “Event Series” and “Event Instances” with a 1:many relation, and a specific date range field on Event Instances. And then create Event Instances for each actual event instance manually.

This is fine for annual conferences and one-offs (I don’t mind creating “SF Climate Week 2026” and “SF Climate Week 2027” by hand) - but for quarterly, monthly, or weekly event series it is very cumbersome. It would be great if the Date field had a cron-like option (though I think that would enormously complicate operations on this type), or if there was a Schedule event type with such functionality, which could be placed on Calendar views.

I also wouldn’t mind if there was a relatively easy way to auto-generate event instances from a schedule, say, for a year ahead. That would work too.
