External Feed

[David Salomon]

I can’t seem to find this – does the plugin automatically generate an ics feed so that users could view the events in their own calendar?

I see lots of articles on importing feeds, and one on the RSS feed, but I don’t think RSS can be viewed in calendar applications.

Thank you.

Hi David,

Thanks for using our plugins and welcome to the forums!

That’s a great question! I can help you with this one.

On every calendar or event page you should see a button for exporting the calendar. Check this screenshot: https://cloudup.com/cweEiCaJdsD

You can right click on that button and select ‘Copy link location’ (or similar) and that will give you a url with an ics feed for that view.

You can also use this snippet, which will then allow you to have an ics feed for the whole year:

Copy it into your child theme’s function.php file and you should be ready to go. Instructions are at the top of the file.

Let me know if this does the trick.

Cheers,
Andras

You’re welcome Dan!

Is there anything else I can help you with before we close this as resolved?

Have a great weekend!
