Requirements
------------

 - This module requires Drupal 6 or higher.
 - This module requires event.module 
   (NOTE: This version of the module requires 
   the 6.1 version of the event module.)
 - Some functions of this module require cron.

Installation
------------

It is assumed that you have Drupal up and running.  Be sure to
check the Drupal web site if you need assistance.  If you run into
problems, you should always read the INSTALL.txt that comes with the
Drupal package and read the online documentation.

You should also have event.module installed before you begin.

You must have cron running on your site (and be visiting your site's cron.php
page) for eventrepeat to work properly, and it's suggested that the cron runs
happen at least twice a day.

Note: Backing up your database is a very good idea before you begin!

1. Place the eventrepeat package into your Drupal sites/all/modules/ directory.

2. Enable the eventrepeat module by navigating to: administer > modules

   Click the 'Save configuration' button at the bottom to commit your
   changes.

3. Configure the options for the module under
 
   Administer > Site Configuration > Repeating events
   
   See README.txt for an explanation of repeat settings.

4. In order for repeating events to be created for a node type, you must first 
   configure that node type to be enabled for repeating events. Enable the node 
   types that you wish to allow repeating events for under

   Administer > Content management > Content types

   While you're in the configuration settings screen, also make sure that
   the node type is set to be visible in the event calendar. Otherwise
   eventrepeat will not work properly on that node type

   You may wish to create a new content type if it seems appropriate.

6. To enable users to create repeat events, set the 'create repeat events' permission for all applicable roles.  This can be found at 

   Administer > User management > Access control

7. Check that cron.php is working correctly.

   See the section on cron in the README.txt file.
