I'd like to find a way to post events to that calendar the span two or more days (such as a Saturday Sunday or Thurs. - Sun.) event. I really only need the Sat-Sun but more would be nice.
What would you all recommend?
Could I edit the "All day event" to be "48 hour event"
Could I add a 2nd "Date of Event:" and 2nd "Timed Event"?
Perhaps change it to Time Day 1 and Time Day 2?
Or add fields in "Repeat event" such as One Day, Two Days, etc...
This is all fairly new to me so any input is appreciated. Thanks.

Are you modifying the Module, or just trying to get something into your current website?
If the latter, when entering or editing your event scroll down. You'll see a repeat event checkbox. You must select the checkbox, and choose how/how long the event is repeated.

Thanks for the reply. I am considering modifying the Module as the repeat event checkbox does not seem to have what I am looking for. Nearly all of our events are Sat thru Sun or Fri thru Sun.

Okay, to get the event to span Saturday and Sunday *do not* use the checkboxes for those days. Start your event on Saturday. Check the repeat event box, repeat daily, and put in the end date. Your event will now repeat over Saturday and Sunday. This has worked on my site using 0.8.2.
On the other hand, if you're interested in modifying the current module I have some ideas for you to add/change/etc... [beg] but I should also mention the module has been substantially altered already for the next release of phpWebSite which is due out in the next few months.
