Google Calendar link in reoccuring events

[Nick]

In reoccurring events the tribe_get_gcal_link() function is returning the correct start date and time, but is always returning the incorrect end date as the “first” event’s end date and time. The ww_get_single_ical_link() is working fine.

In another case when the “first” event date had past, the gmail link is returning the next valid event start date. Is that intentional?

Thanks,
Nick

Replicated a similar issue on the official tri.be demo:

iCal link works fine, google calendar link add the event in March?

Hi Nick, yep unfortunately that’s a known bug – the good news is it has been fixed.

The devs tell me the fix will be available in the next release which is expected imminently.

Good to hear. I made my own patch in the mean time – probably not the best way to do it but it works.
Updated googleCalendarLink() function starring line 397:
[code]// Hack to load correct reocurrence dates
$postStartDate = tribe_get_start_date( $post->ID, true, ‘F j, Y’ );
$postEndDate = tribe_get_end_date( $post->ID, true, ‘F j, Y’ );

// $start_date = strtotime( get_post_meta( $postId, ‘_EventStartDate’, true ) );
$start_date = strtotime( $postStartDate );

//$end_date = strtotime( get_post_meta( $postId, ‘_EventEndDate’, true ) . ( get_post_meta( $postId, ‘_EventAllDay’, true ) ? ‘ + 1 day’ : ”) );
$end_date = strtotime( $postEndDate . ( get_post_meta( $postId, ‘_EventAllDay’, true ) ? ‘ + 1 day’ : ”) );
[/code]

Cool, might be useful for anyone else in need of a hot fix for this, too.
