The following date in the Scheduler RecurrenceRule cannot be parsed and is ignored:
RecurrenceRule = "FREQ=DAILY;UNTIL=20210722T000000"
According to the RFC5545 specification, this should be a valid date format.
These formats will work:
RecurrenceRule = "FREQ=DAILY;UNTIL=2021-07-22T00:00:00"
RecurrenceRule = "FREQ=DAILY;UNTIL=2021-07-22T00:00:00.000Z"
EDIT:
This is my work-around. It captures the date portion of the UNTIL clause, converts it into the date string style that Telerik can understand, then reassembles the rule stringprivate string TransformRecurrenceRule()
{
const string untilSeparator = "UNTIL=";
var ruleParts = RecurrenceRule.Split(untilSeparator, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
if (ruleParts.Length <= 1)
{
// There was no Until clause to worry about
return RecurrenceRule;
}
// Save the first part of the rule
var ruleBeginning = ruleParts[0];
// Split the date part of the until clause from any following clauses
var remainingClauses = ruleParts[1].Split(';', 2, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
//Save the date part of the until clause
var untilDate = remainingClauses[0];
// Save any following clauses with the `;` replaced
var ruleEnding = "";
if (remainingClauses.Length == 2)
{
ruleEnding = $";{remainingClauses[1]}";
}
// Convert the until date into .net parsable format
const string format = "yyyyMMddTHHmmss";
var date = DateTime.ParseExact(untilDate, format, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
var dateStr = date.ToString("yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss");
// recombine rule components
var newRuleParts = new[] {ruleBeginning, untilSeparator, dateStr, ruleEnding};
var newRule = string.Join("",newRuleParts);
return newRule;
}
If the Scheduler is placed in a parent container (for example Telerik Splitter or any other container) its appointments are not resized when resizing the pane. The Scheduler itself resizes accordingly, but the appointments don't.
I have located an issue with the scheduler in Firefox
It currently is not possible to edit an appointment in Firefox when visiting the following demo page:
https://demos.telerik.com/blazor-ui/scheduler/appointment-editing
Edge and Chrome work as expected.
I noticed this issue in my local project and referred to the demo's to see if I was doing something stupid :-).
I am assuming that the demo's are running in .net 5 and that the demo's are blazor server applications.
I have a scheduler, and am using a custom Edit handler. I need to support recurrence, and editing recurring events. When the use double-clicks on a recurring event, there is a dialog that asks whether they would like to edit the occurrence or the entire series.
I want to be able to capture the results of this dialog. `SchedulerEditEventArgs` doesn't include any attributes that track this.
===========
ADMIN EDIT
===========
The implementation of this enhancement could be covered by either including the corresponding attributes in the SchedulerEditEventArgs or by exposing a Template for the RecurrenceDialog.
Note: You may also check the Ability to directly edit an occurence or the series, without the prompt asking you to choose feature request as the implementation of both features will most likely be covered in one release.
That's pretty weird but nevertheless very specific: if the Scheduler is loaded with POCO objects from EntityFramework with LazyLoading enabled (Castle.Proxies objects) them the k-event-drag-hint box is not shown (!)
It took me some time to figure it out...
Other schedule controls have an 'agenda' view that has a chronological list of appointments back to back stacked vertically colored by resource.
It would be great for the telerik scheduler to have a view like this.
is it possible to drag between hours to create a new appointment like in the attached recording?
I don't want to allow reoccurring appointments. Is there a way to hide the reoccurring part of the editor so they can't create one? I think a simple way to shut off reoccurring appointments on the entire scheduler would be great.

ADMIN EDIT
At the moment, a custom edit form is the only option: https://github.com/telerik/blazor-ui/tree/master/scheduler/custom-edit-form
---
I am using resources in the scheduler and I need to require the user to select a resource from the list when adding an appointment. Maybe a "Required" option when you declare the resource?
---
ADMIN EDIT
At the moment, a custom edit form is the only option: https://github.com/telerik/blazor-ui/tree/master/scheduler/custom-edit-form
If you need to add resources only in one mode (edit or insert), please provide an example of how you would expect that to be controller through data annotations since they would be in effect in both modes if used.
---
I could have a case where the work week starts on Sunday and ends on Thursday, and I want to be able to denote this in the scheduler.
---
ADMIN EDIT
For the time being, you can consider two options (separately or together):
div.k-scheduler .k-scheduler-nonwork,
div.k-scheduler .k-nonwork-hour {
background-color: inherit;
}
---
A context menu event similar to the grid context menu would be useful for editing functions like cut/copy and paste.
---
ADMIN EDIT
You can use the item template to integrate context menus in the scheduler: https://github.com/telerik/blazor-ui/tree/master/scheduler/appointment-context-menu. This also allows you a lot of other customization options like adding tooltips and changing the appearance/information users see at first glance.
For a context menu on the slots - probably this item will expose a template for them so the same approach would apply.

I'm in the same situation as the OP in this post: https://www.telerik.com/forums/how-do-you-always-edit-series-when-editing-a-recurring-appointment
In my case, I'm working with with the Blazor Scheduler Component. How can I disable the prompt and automatically select "Edit the series"? Or at least "disable" the "Edit this occurrence" button when updating/deleting an appointment?
---
ADMIN EDIT
Note: You may also check the Differentiate "edit current occurrence" and "edit the series" in the RecurrenceDialog feature request as the implementation of both features will most likely be covered in one release.
Please comment with suggestions on how you would like to see this feature exposed. Ideally it might have to be dynamic so you can toggle it based on conditions, so perhaps it could be a parameter (not flexible), an event argument to OnEdit, or a separate event/setting.
Here is a sample code you can try to achieve this - comments in the code explain how the templates are used to capture the edit action and some JS is used to fake-click the button to simulate a user choice:
@inject IJSRuntime _jsInterop
@* this errors suppression is a hack to make this sample succinct
move this script to a proper place for a real app*@
<script suppress-error="BL9992">
function clickSchedulerPromptButton(btnIndex) {
setTimeout(function () {
var buttons = document.querySelectorAll(".k-window-content .text-right button");
if (buttons && buttons.length >= btnIndex) {
var chosenButton = buttons[btnIndex];
chosenButton.click();
}
}, 50);
}
</script>
@* appearance setting for the template - make the custom template tall as the appointment to capture all clicks *@
<style>
.tallAppt {
height: 100%;
}
</style>

I have a requirement to design our own custom add/edit template form for scheduler control.
I looked at custom edit form example and found very helpful, However this example does not demonstrate how to use RecurrenceEditor and use them in custom template.
