I am testing the 2.0 alpha on a clean drupal 6.20 install. I only have cck, date module, jquery ui, and node_repeat installed. I am logged in as admin.

1. I create a content type 'event'
2. I add a date field using either date, datestamp, or datetime and various widgets.
3. in the bottom of settings for date field I only select "Use node repeats" (not "Auto detach nodes on date change")
4. I create a node of type 'event' filling out the fields 'title', 'body', and 'date'

Now I should think that I would be able to see a node repeat tab somewhere? This is however not the case - but perhaps I am doing something wrong or looking in the wrong place?

Thanks for testing.

With 6.x-2.x you need to use a widget than allow repetition like "text field with repeat option". Those widgets come with the "date repeat" module (part of the date module).

In the node creation form a checkbox (inside the date widget) let you cloning the node.

The tab appear only when the node his part of a sequence.

Take a look at the release know issue if you didn't http://drupal.org/node/1026470 (I edited them to make things more clear).

I'm going to remove the option to enable node repeat if it's not the right widget.
