comment Why do some programmers think there is a contrast between theory and practice?
"Many programmers have had bad experiences with runaway theory becoming an active impediment to getting things done..." Definetly. That's why agile development methodologies like Scrum or Xtreme Programming born.

comment How to make a recurring event? Such as an entry in a agenda
Also I believe I need the cron because scheduled instances calculations may be a little heavy for doing on Notification save.

Your answer made me think a bit more on the problem. I already have a database table for dismissals, but will need to change it on a per instance instead of per Notification. Regarding emails, I can pre-fill a email queue with desired sending dates in the same process that I pre-fill the instances.

I'm thinking that pre-filling a time period with instances would be good. The only problem is how many/how much? Do I pre-fill only a month of instances? Thanks also to @JohntheRevelator for helping improve this answer.

I'm still thinking about what you said in your answer. I'll keep you updated when I have the application of your answer more clear in my mind.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that Users can close/cancel the Notification on the system so they don't see that instance anymore. Also, the system must send a email to the User the day before the notification. That's why I thought of a cronjob. I updated the question with that details.
