For this second URL, at least at the point in time where I visited it (it could of course have contained something else when you last accessed it) it was a valid iCal feed with three events in it, which I had no problem importing:
This still produces no ical import for me
I need to go back to docs as I must be missing something.
I still have had no success in importing any events.
1. above in the gun show example why would the url include ?ical=1&tribe_display=
2. from Meetup I entered the ical info provided for a group there.
webcal://www.meetup.com/Keiretsu-Forum-East-Bay/events/ical/
I have tried http: but still no luck.
“no ical found at this url”
did you try the google cal link. above you instructed to copy the “monstrous link”
the espn link was from right click of export calendar at
http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/schedule/_/name/pit/pittsburgh-steelers
I have asked county website guys to advise their aspx for ical and how a standard url can be gleaned from that format
it’s pretty wild out there.
May be show some examples that do work and clue as to what to look for in what a ics or google calendar URL should look like so third parties can address these issues.
more examples that don’t load
downloaded from link marked as + export listed event

it feels like in the wild every site implements ical downloads in a proprietary roll-your-own kind of way that your net (importer) can’t catch those fish.
Still having issues
From this page http://www.co.contra-costa.ca.us/iCalendar.aspx
I looked at page source and copied this URL
main calendar
http://www.co.contra-costa.ca.us/common/modules/iCalendar/iCalendar.aspx?catID=87&feed=calendarsingle subject calendar
http://www.co.contra-costa.ca.us/common/modules/iCalendar/iCalendar.aspx?catID=90&feed=calendarI enter ical url from esp.
webcal://espn.go.com/travel/sports/calendar/export/espnCal?teams=6_23I also changed webcam to http and
everything above produces
no ical url found
I think there needs to be much better explanation about this given the variety of urls that purport to be ical urls and why importer does not recognize them and how to find or edit them so it does.
I have solved the problem with the Appearance>>Custom edit window. Problem resolved when I deactivated a custom plugin that added widget areas to the home page.
What is a large number of events? 676 have been published 2 pending moderation. I believe many of those are recurring events for local service groups (rotary, chamber, networking meetings.
I assume that that 676 are future events trusting that pro deletes past events?
I am using WP 422 Pro 393 W3TC and Cloudflare but I am looking at direct via host file. When I deactivate Customizer loads admin page loads fine. When it is activated Customizer produces the link to Edit Events described above.
