Render a Recurring Event as a Single Occurrence

Normally, sharing a recurring event includes all the occurrences of the event with each sharing method. When an end-user adds the event to their calendar, all of the occurrences are included.

If you share a recurring event as a single occurrence, only the next occurrence of the recurring event will be shared with your end-users instead of all the occurrences of the event. See the example below:

A recurring event that has been rendered as a single instance

From the Event details page:

This is a typical event landing page link, when shared as is: https://www.addevent.com/event/VA14528529

Event landing page as a single occurrence:

Add /single to the end of the event landing page link to share only the next instance of the recurring event.

Example: https://www.addevent.com/event/VA14528529/single

Add to Calendar (Direct Link) example:

Add /single to the end of the copied URL from the Direct links section.

Example: https://www.addevent.com/event/VA14528529+google/single

Add To Calendar Button

To render a recurring event as a single instance when using an Add to Calendar button, you need to add the attribute data-single=true to the script. Below is an example of the modified code:

<a title="Add to Calendar" class="addeventatc" data-id="VA14528529" data-single="true" href="https://www.addevent.com/event/VA14528529 " target="_blank">Add to Calendar</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.addevent.com/libs/atc/1.6.1/atc.min.js" async defer></script>

Note: Rendering a recurring event as a single instance does not apply to events with RSVP enabled. You cannot collect information from your attendees and render the recurring event as a single instance.
