End times not importing from Google calendar

[Jonathan Vogel-Borne]

I have tried importing Google calendar events directly with the http link and as an .ics file. Both times, the start times are correct, but the end time is always the same as the start time.

What do you know?

Thank you,
Jonathan

Hey Jonathan,

Welcome back and thank you for reaching out. I attempted to reproduce the behavior and can confirm the end date and times are not being imported correctly. They seem to be defaulting to the event start date and time. With that said, I’ve gone ahead and logged a bug report for the developers to address in an upcoming maintenance release, which I’ve linked to this forum thread.

This is obviously an issue that will impact a large amount of users, so I imagine the timeframe for a fix will be hasty. I don’t have a concrete date for you, but stay tuned to your WP admin dashboard and our Release Notes for more info.

I apologize you’ve having to deal with this bug in the mean time and please let me know if you have any more questions or comments. Thanks again and take care. Cheers!

Hello!

I’m so sorry about this, but I actually misfired in my initial post about this and have confirmed with our development team that the bugfixes for the iCal import end times is actually still in its final stages of testing—it has not launched yet and is not yet available.

My apologies!

It should still be arriving soon nonetheless—stay tuned to this thread and to our product news for updates!

Sincerely,
George

Hi there,

Just wanted to inform that the fix for this issue has been finally pushed to the Event Aggregator server! There’s no need to update the plugins, although I recommend using the latest version of The Events Calendar.

Thanks so much for the patience while we worked on this 🙂

Please let us know if this is working as expected for you,
Best,
Nico
