I am using JEvents on a site in a comprehensive way. I just got JSitemap working, almost out of the box. It correctly lists events title and date, but many of the links go to the full current calender instead of the actual event,
Took a while to figure this out, but I do know JEvents better than I should.
The issue is that when an event has a automatic repeat it does not use the event ID in the URL it uses a rp-id (repeat ID) found from the table _jevents_repetition. So since JSitemap uses the event ID value it builds a link to a now out of date event (the original first showing of the event) so fails to show it and falls back to the calender. I think it might be worse than that because it seems to also show some events that are passed the current date, although not really looked at that.
I am sure there is a fix, but I don't have enough hands on time with this component. May need to chain data from two tables to build the correct link.
So any help would be appreciated. Please don't make me go back to xmap!

Hi Stephen,

the configuration of JEvents data source is something really difficult and that can be changed.
The best settings we experimented are to show the original event and every repetition, being however valid links for SEO and indexing.
