Creating an event series that occurs on specific days each month

How do I create an event series that occurs on the first and third Monday of each month?

In this example, we will create a recurring event for a NAMI Connection group that meets on the first and third Monday of every month. To accomplish this recurring event structure, we will create two events. One event will repeat on the first Monday of each month and the other event will repeat on the third Monday of each month. These two events will be combined into one series.

1. Create a new event with a descriptive title such as "NAMI Connection - First Mondays". Enter the date and time for your initial event. In the image below, the event begins on September 1, 2025. In the Recurring Event section, click the "Schedule multiple events" button.

2. Select "monthly" in the Recurring Event section. Check that the pattern is correct - in this case, "On the first Monday" of each month. No need to set an end date.

3. In the Series panel in the right sidebar, create a new series. Use a descriptive title like "NAMI Connection - First and Third Mondays".

4. Configure the rest of the event details and Publish.

5. Create a new event by repeating steps 1-2. The title and start date should reflect third Mondays. In the Series panel, select the series you have just created. Configure the rest of the event details and Publish.

That's it! The series can be viewed and edited in the backend under Events > Series. It can be viewed on the frontend via the Calendar or a direct link to its URL.
