Description

First of all, what is the point of the "Repeat Mode: Monthly" if I can just set the task to repeat every month in both of the other modes?
Furthermore, recurrence is quite limited (things like "First Monday of each month", "Last Friday of each month" and the like are indispensible), but I hope that is tracked elsewhere.

Anyways, the actual issue:

create a new task
set repeat mode monthly
add a due date
"Repeat" dialogue closes upon confirming due date (what?)
reopen repeat dialogue, close it with the X

Expectation: Repeat is removed

Behavior: Repeat stays, yet is not displayed even when reopening the task

Check out this, if it still exists as you read: https://try.vikunja.io/tasks/7

Should be fixed in bd7d09c17c - please check with the next unstable build (~20min) or on try.

First of all, what is the point of the "Repeat Mode: Monthly" if I can just set the task to repeat every month in both of the other modes?

"Monthly" will repeat on the same day each month, "Repeat every 1 month" will repeat every 30 days. Maybe we should remove that second option because it's more confusing?

Furthermore, recurrence is quite limited (things like "First Monday of each month", "Last Friday of each month" and the like are indispensible), but I hope that is tracked elsewhere.

Yes, there's an item in the backlog for that.

Yes that should be removed, anybody who wants that can set every 30 days just as well. Same for years, which are presumably hardcoded to 365 days - if somebody is expecting the same day of the year and then a leapyear messes it up that could lead to big confusion.
