permissions problem with google calndar

[Amy]

Can anyone please help this non-tech-savvy user? When people try to subscribe to my calendar with google, they get this message:
“Cannot add calendar “PS107″
You do not have access to PS107’s calendar”

We had no trouble with this last year and it’s only been an issue since we upgraded to 3.0 pro.

thanks!
Amy

Hi Amy,

I’m not sure. Do you have some sort of customization in place to generate that link? It’s not something our current releases actually generate (though it does create other Google Calendar related links in different views).

Thanks for clarifying!

Hi Barry,
Thanks for responding. We are generating that link manually. The old version of Event Cal Pro generated an gCal link on the main events page (http://ps107.org/events), but when we upgraded that link is no longer there. So we just created a link to:
http://www.google.com/calendar/render?cid=http://ps107.org/events/?ical=1
/events/?ical=1 *seems* to spit out a good .ics file that has all our events in it, but for some reason Google Calendar seems to be running into some kind of UID conflict.

Is there another way I can get Event Calendar Pro to generate a link for gCal and iCal? The whole reason we bought this product was for this functionality and if we know upgrading was going to break it we wouldn’t have upgraded.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best,
Amy

Hi Amy,

You could be right there, though my own memory is that the previous version (2.0.11) did not do this, and spinning up a copy quickly to check seems to bear that out – the Google Calendar link appears only on single event pages, not on month view – so I wonder if perhaps this was a custom generated link you had added with that version, too?

Please do consider making a feature request for this over on our UserVoice page (you may even be able to find an existing request that you can endorse) – however any solution in the interim is something we’d have to leave to you to devise.

Thanks – and sorry we can’t do more on this occasion.
