Calendar Auto-number recurring event titles (e.g., “Event 1, 2, 3…”)
I’d like Proton Calendar to support auto-numbering (or title templating) for recurring events, so each occurrence can have a unique title without manually creating separate events.
Problem
Right now, recurring events keep the same title for every occurrence. For workflows like weekly meetups or lessons, this makes it hard to track progress at a glance.
Example
Create one recurring event with a base title like:
Event {#}
Then the generated occurrences would show:
Event 1
Event 2
Event 3
…and so on.
Suggested implementation
Add an optional toggle like “Auto-number occurrences” or allow placeholders in the title:
{#} = occurrence number (starting at 1)
(optional extras) {date}, {weekOfYear}, etc.
Notes / edge cases
If one occurrence is deleted/canceled, numbering should stay stable (or offer a “renumber future occurrences” option).
Editing one instance should keep its custom title (do not overwrite).
This feature is fully local/metadata-only and shouldn’t affect encryption/privacy.
Why it matters
This would save time and improve clarity for:
weekly meetups, classes, therapy sessions
sprint reviews, pay-period check-ins
recurring tasks where sequence matters.
