Step 6: Create Event as a Recurring Event

The Recurring Event is created using this page. This will create code you can input into the Recurring Event box but is not required. To see a tutorial on using this page see here. If the event has a recurring event, insert time into the Event Duration box. Use the format hh:mm;ss.sss (e.g 5 hours would be 05:00).
