You had suggested in a thread a while ago that it’s possible to use the iCal importer to aggregate sub-site calendars to the parent in a multisite setup. I have a few follow-up questions:
\n1. It would be nice to use the Recurring Import to configure only once and then just let it run untouched to keep the Master calendar up to date. But is it smart enough to not import the same event twice? What if the title was updated? And what about if an event is deleted in the source calendar that was previously imported? <\/p>\n

2. Once a series of iCal feeds have been pulled in from sub-sites, I assume each entry will link back to the sub-site (?), but is there a way at the parent level to filter by sub-site calendar (i.e. filter by iCal feed)? It no such feature exists, could a filter by added programmatically? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1149117","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nMaster Calendar in Multisite via iCal importer -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/master-calendar-in-multisite-via-ical-importer\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Master Calendar in Multisite via iCal importer -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"You had suggested in a thread a while ago that it’s possible to use the iCal importer to aggregate sub-site calendars to the parent in a multisite setup.
