iCal `End Date` not importing

[Matt]

Having an issue when importing events from iCal / Google calendar.

The start date imports properly but the end date does not.

This happens using both one-time and recurring imports. This was working before the last update.

iCal feed:

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170109
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170113
DTSTAMP:20161201T191430Z
UID:EE14D1BA-DFB7-4374-A765-D86F508AC951

SUMMARY:Full Facility Group Possible [lodging for 27\, all gathering spaces

Notice that the first event has an End Date of ‘2017-01-09’ — it should be ‘2017-01-13’ as in my iCal feed ‘DTEND;VALUE=DATE:’ above.

Hi, Matt.

Sorry you’re experiencing this known bug. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.

I’ll mark this ticket as Pending Fix, which means this thread should receive a reply once the applicable fix has been released. I cannot guarantee when it will be fixed as it’s in the development team’s hands now. They need to code it, test it, and schedule it for release.

I apologize for this issue and appreciate your understanding and patience.

Thanks Cliff, understood.

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,

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,
