## Installation

Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS
[instructions](https://docs.backdropcms.org/documentation/extend-with-modules)

Then you can add the "Date (repeating)" field to content types. Note that it's
really a standalone field type - you can not use any of the other Date field
types as base for recurring dates.

The field cardinality global setting controls the max amount of date values,
that get saved to the database. Make sure that this value is high enough.

## Credits

This module is inspired by, but not really similar to
[Date Repeat](https://backdropcms.org/project/date_repeat), which has been
ported from Drupal. So that one's finally available, too, for Backdrop CMS.

To calculate the list of dates, this module uses the MIT licensed
[RRULE for PHP](https://github.com/rlanvin/php-rrule) library by Rémi Lanvin
([rlanvin](https://github.com/rlanvin))
