Feature request - Weekday recurrence needs 5th weekday of month

Thank you.
I uploaded a nighly build:
raw.githubusercontent.com/jemproject/JEM-Project/JEM-4.2.3-dev/pkg_jem_nightly_build_20240705.zip

Thanks for the new nightly. I installed that on the testing system (previously had the 20240704 nightly installed) and now I get an error when adding event:-
    An error has occurred.
        0 Failed to parse time string (now +days) at position 4 (+): Unexpected character

Also note that there are no recurrence parameters in Settings / Global Parameters.

Previously, with the 20240704 build, I could add an event but there was no parameters to change/enter after selecting any of the dropdown recurrence modes.

I'd attach a screenshot but I don't see an option to do that. There is just nothing below the type dropdown.

With the latest nightly, is there any sql updates that need to happen? I cannot see any "recurrence_anticipation_*" records are in the jem_config table of the test installation. But bookedrootevent wasn't in the jem_events table structure.

Or should I start fresh with 4.2.2-stable and then install the nightly over the top (with J! installer)?

Do you want me to feedback here or the issue on github (where I can attach screenshots)?
 

@webenhanced Sorry, but I think that the 20240705 build zip file is wrong, not include all commits. We have to review it. This weekend we'll debug it and when it's fixed, I'll let you know

This ZIP doesn't include \administrator\components\com_jem\sql\updates\mysql\4.2.3.sql, you can try to run in mySQL:

-- delete values
DELETE FROM `#__jem_config` WHERE `keyname` = 'recurrence_anticipation';

-- new values
INSERT INTO `#__jem_config` (`keyname`, `value`, `access`) VALUES ('recurrence_anticipation_day', '3', '0');
INSERT INTO `#__jem_config` (`keyname`, `value`, `access`) VALUES ('recurrence_anticipation_week', '12', '0');
INSERT INTO `#__jem_config` (`keyname`, `value`, `access`) VALUES ('recurrence_anticipation_month', '60', '0');
INSERT INTO `#__jem_config` (`keyname`, `value`, `access`) VALUES ('recurrence_anticipation_year', '180', '0');

-- change values
ALTER TABLE `#__jem_events` ADD `seriesbooking` INT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `requestanswer`;

-- update values
UPDATE `#__jem_events` SET `recurrence_number` = 7 WHERE `recurrence_number` = 6 AND `recurrence_type` = 4;
UPDATE `#__jem_events` SET `recurrence_number` = 6 WHERE `recurrence_number` = 5 AND `recurrence_type` = 4;

Thanks for letting me know. There's nothing really to be sorry about. We're on the front edge of development, these things happen.

I'm wondering if there's a better way of working with this latest pre-version. One thing that excites me able JEM is the open source nature. If I want other features or find a bug in certain scenarios, I like the idea that I can contribute back to the main repo if accepted by the devs, thus keeping said features in all subsequent releases of JEM.

If you have any suggestions or have a document somewhere I have yet to find about the dev environment requirements for this project, please let me know.
