GuestGood Morning, Can I ask if your free to use calendar plugin allows it to show more than 6 months? Or is this something that only the paid version does? We need to be able to show more than 6 months as we have events posted(It imports from an outlook calendar) that are upto 14-15 months ahead.

MemberHello Adrian — thanks for getting in touch!
Good question. Our plugins are only able to show one month at a time. We are actually hoping to make an Annual View in a future release, though I don’t have any timeframe for when that would be released. In the meantime, Month View is as close as it gets.
One possible workaround is to use the Mini Calendar shortcode that comes in Events Calendar PRO and embed the widget in a page or post as many times as you need it. The shortcode accepts additional filters that could make each widget display different events.
Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.
Cheers,

GuestNot Exactly Geoff, it displays a monthly no worries and with most plugins like this you can cycle by month. We are happy with this.
In the WordPress website we have set a cron job that imports from an office 365 calendar but for some reason it doesn’t seem to import stuff currently if its put in April or beyond so its only imported, and showing, entries up to March. I am asking if your events plugin when set to do an Ical import is their a limit on how far ahead it will read.
So what i am asking is is there a limit when using the plugin to Pull an ical to how many months ahead it will pull and can i set this period?
No Button see? http://www.newcastleacademy.org/events/2017-04/

GuestGeoff, a little further testing and the ICAl import is pulling in 6 calendar months to the day ahead only. So if I put an entry in the imported calendar for the 28th April it pulls this in put it into the 29th and it doesn’t.
Does the cut back version only offer 6 months ahead for importing? Thanks for your assistance is resolving this as i say if the free version allows only 6 month import does a paid version offer more?
Best Regards

Events Calendar PRO does not import or export more events via iCal than The Events Calendar. The functionality is the same for both plugins.
