Original information of the end date gets los

[rick1975]

We are using the aggregator to import an iCal feed,

in the result in the events calendar we see that items which are
originally planned as:

DTSTART;TZID=”(UTC+01:00) Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome, Stockholm,
Vienna”:20161015T000000
DTEND;TZID=”(UTC+01:00) Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome, Stockholm,
Vienna”:20161024T000000

will become (within the events calendar) an event at 15th of October
with the 15th of October as end-date as well…
so the original information of the end date gets lost during import,

is there a way to solve this?

Hello rick1975,

Thanks for using our plugins and welcome to the forums!

I’m sorry about this issue with the end date changing during import. This bug is already known to us and the bugticket is already on high priority. I will add your thread to it as well to give it more push. Unfortunately I don’t have any workaround for this at the moment. (You could possibly try the legacy iCal importer.)

It would be great if you could share the feed that you are trying to import so we can test it as well. Would that be possible?

Thanks and cheers,
Andras

Hi András,

Thanks for the heads up.

Any idea when the new release is?

Our import is: https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/[email protected]/c9a03a5f56e7467397b507e04f273d177455251171472562456/calendar.ics

Cheers Rick

Hey Rick,

Thanks for submitting the feed. Yeah, most reports on this issue are using office365.

The ticket is on highest priority, it already has a developer assigned to it and is targeted for the next maintenance release. If all goes according to plan, it should come in about 3 weeks or so. Hang in there. 🙂

Cheers,
Andras

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,
George

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,
