Event Calendar Pro not exporting the Venue

[Dan]

When exporting from an Event Calendar Pro the resulting ICS exported file does not have the LOCATION: field … I would think this should contain the value entered into the VENUE. Other calendars we have tested all export a LOCATION field in the exported ICS file. One of the reasons we purchased the Pro upgrade was we thought this would fix this issue… or that possibly the added fields might show up in an exported file in some manner…

Hi Dan!

Thanks for reaching out to us! Let me help you with this.

I just made a few tests on my end and the LOCATION information is included in the exported ICS file. Do bear in mind the LOCATION will only be present if the venue address for the event is present.

Could you please share with us a link to your calendar so we can have a look and make some tests with the export feature?

Let us know about it.

Thanks,
Victor

Hi Dan!

Thanks for sharing the link.

I could export the ICS file and the location tag is exported as well.

Take for example the following event extracted from the ICS file:

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART;TZID=UTC-5:20171126T170000
DTEND;TZID=UTC-5:20171126T200000
DTSTAMP:20171121T122650

SUMMARY:Paint Class!
DESCRIPTION:Paint Class at Tortuga Jacks \n
URL:http://lakehawk.net/event/paint-class-2/2017-11-26/
LOCATION:Tortuga Jack's
GEO:31.0547827;-81.4080712
X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Tortuga Jack's;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Tortuga Jack's:geo:-81.4080712,31.0547827
END:VEVENT

You can see the LOCATION tag as well as the GEO tag with the venue coordinates.

Are you having problems with any specific event? Let me know about it.

Best,
Victor
