• The selected starting date for a repeating event is always used, even if it would normally not be included. For example, creating an event to occur every third Tuesday, but selecting a Monday as the start date, causes the event to occur on that Monday as well as the following Tuesdays.
• If ticket printing is used, and the event repeat occurrences are changed after tickets have been created, the tickets will be orphaned and can't be printed.
