Recurring monthly events by day of the week in Thunderbird?

+6
−0

Is there a way to add recurring items to Thunderbird's calendar with formats like "second Tuesday of the month" and "fourth Friday of the month"?

All I can see is an options for monthly, weekly, etc., but I'm wondering if I'm missing something or if there might be an extension or something I can add to get this kind of functionality.

I ended up dropping Thunderbird last summer when a significant crash "exiled" me to a lower-powered laptop, and I can't find any useful screenshots online, so I may have fallen a bit out of date. It's definitely there, though. I believe that you set Repeat to Custom... at the bottom of the drop-down list, and that gives you a pop-up that handles the less-common cases like multiple days per week or the last Monday of the month.
