Event Skipping

Mark events as skipped without deleting them.

Why Skip?

Skipping preserves files and history while hiding events from calendar view. Useful for:

  • Maintaining recurring series integrity
  • Tracking planned vs actual events
  • Temporary removal with option to restore

Common scenarios:

  • Holiday week: Skip all recurring meetings for that week, series continues after
  • Vacation period: Skip two weeks of events, they resume when you return
  • Cancelled meetings: Skip specific instances without breaking the recurring pattern
  • Trial tracking: Skip events you're testing whether you need, restore if you miss them

How to Skip

Individual: Right-click event → "Skip Event"

Batch: Enter selection mode → Select events → Click "Skip" button

Common use: Skip a week of recurring meetings for holidays without breaking the series.

Viewing and Restoring

View skipped: Calendar menu → "View Skipped Events"

The dialog shows all skipped events with options to restore them.

Restore: Open dialog → Click "Restore" next to event(s)

Technical

Skipped events have Skipped: true in frontmatter (automatically managed). Files remain in vault, just hidden from calendar view. Fully reversible with undo support.
