RSS feed – ics format

[Roger]

Are there any options to publish (export) a feed from our events calendar in ics format?

If not, what format is the feed in?

Hi Roger,

I can help you with this!

If you go to [your-site]/events/feed you’ll see  the RSS Feed for your calendar.

We also have a Knowledgebase article here that explains in a little more detail and will show you how to customize the feed https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/customize-rss-feed/

You can export an ICS file from your calendar by clicking the button shown in the screenshot below:

The ICS files that are exported from The Events Calendar are static files that can be imported into any application that supports them, but they do not establish a link between the two sites.

You can read more about our ICS export functionality here on our Knowledgebase.

Thanks Trisha,

I guess I didn’t word my question clearly enough.

I know I can statically export a file in ics format. My question was whether there was any support for the feed in ics format, so that it can feed automatically in to external systems (that support the ‘standard’ ics format).

I know that competitors such as Timely support this; I was hoping there would be a solution already for The Event Calendar, or leastways something in the pipeline.

Hi, Roger!

So sorry for the misunderstanding on my part! I did find out that as of v4.4 our ICS feed has pretty robust support.

Copy the link that you would normally use to download the .ics file as use that as your feed URL.

I hope this helps! Let me know how it goes!

Cheers,
Trisha

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
