How do you display recurring events only once wordpress

Question

Sorry if this is elementary as i'm figuring these out myself with no possible help around here... so it would be great if anyone could help with these 2 questions regarding wordpress.

1) how to set a recurring event that happens every wednesday such that it will only be displayed once instead of every instance?

2) and can the date shown to say “Wednesdays” instead of the date of the event (only in the case of recurring events)

Because I'm running this locally so I can't share the url... but heres a screen grab, and I'll try to paste the code below as well.

if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) { exit; } $prefix = Haze_Meta_Boxes::get_instance()->prefix; $Event = clx_get_event_meta(get_the_ID()); ?>
