I’m working on an event calendar.

1 day of each month has two events. All other events are 1/day.

Is there any way in the calendar to display only the first entry of a day in which there are multiple entries?

(This isn’t a matter of if entries link to the entries for that day. I need to do an embedded template to grab the entry category and pass that to style for the TD for that day)

If I loop the entries outside of the TD tags (see example below), EE will duplicate the cells for that day, resulting in 8 days a week.

{if entries}
      {entries}
          <td class='{switch} {embed="embeds/code/goes/here"}'>
                <a href="http://{day_path=channel/index}">{day_number}</a>
                <div>
                    <a href="http://{title_permalink=channel/index}">{title}</a>
                </div>
            </td>
      {/entries}
 {/if}

I’d rather get just the first entry for that day and ignore subsequent entries for that day.

Hi Susan,

It appears the {entries} variable pair does not have the ability to limit the number of entries returned. That would certainly make for a good Feature Request if you’d like to add it.

I do wish I had a better solution for you here!
