The plugin seems to cause an error when updating Discourse:

With the plugin disabled, the update runs as expected.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ve pushed a fix for this. Would you mind trying to update now with the plugin installed?

Hello

Could someone explain to me the effect (and benefit) of this option?

My brain doesn’t understand… :brain:

THANKS

Yes, it could be explained better.

A recurring event is a “series” of events. When you create a recurring event in an external service connected by this plugin (e.g. Google Calendar) this plugin will import all events in the series (within the import parameters you set).

If you have an automatic topic sync set up for your imported events, this setting determines whether you create one topic for that series of events or multiple. If the setting is enabled, you’ll have one topic for the series that is updated with the next event in the series when the previous one has passed. If the setting is disabled, you’ll have a topic for each event in the series.

But yes, it needs a better description.
