Missing feature: custom recurrence patterns
-
In thunderbird, there is the possibility to create custom patterns for repeating appointments. Every first monday of a month, there is the mautic community meetup. Easy to set in thunderbird. The moment I sync to calendar, it goes to 1. of a month, which is wrong.

Do you have an example ical event which has those specific recurrence settings or is thunderbird generating those events based on those rules and hence they get lost during caldav sync?
@nebulon Sorry for the lack of clarity. Normally, I've been creating custom recurrence patterns in Thunderbird. With SOGo, for example, everything works as expected. But as soon as I switch to my new default calendar (the Cloudron calendar app), it just turns into it's own rules. (instead of first tuesday every month, it creates something like: Occurs 4 of every month effective 8/4/26 until 10/30/26 from 16:00 to 17:00.)

@robi Do you have any idea how to add a custom recurrence pattern to your calendar and save it as an iCal? I hope nebulon has a Thunderbird client installed on one of his test laptops.
All right. Create a new calendar (iCal export), create the appointments, and export/save this calendar as an .ics file.
haha.
