Hello, I have read the other “duplicate iCal import” threads and most of them are private replies, so I can’t really determine if those are helpful or not. There seem to be several types of import\/importer and I’m a little confused.<\/p>\n

I’m working with another developer who does not have access to my account on here, and he’s the one really working on this, but I need to post to the support forums because I’m the one who purchased the add-on “Events Aggregator”.<\/p>\n

Truth be told, I’m not positive if that was the correct plugin for what we wanted to do. Does The Events Calendar plugin have an importer by default (Events > Import)? Because with the Aggregator installed, there’s also another section Events > Settings > Import. So do I even need the add-on to do scheduled imports of a feed. The feed is here: http:\/\/craftingbase.com\/calendar_feed.php?calendar=2<\/p>\n

Anyway, the issue we’re having with the feed is that it’s duplicating the posts. It imports like 5 at a time, per item. We’ve tried testing it with a Twenty Sixteen theme and it made no difference.<\/p>\n

Can someone point me in the right direction here? \ud83d\ude42 Thank you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1227855","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nDuplicate Events for Feed Import -<\/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\/duplicate-events-for-ical-feed-import\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Duplicate Events for Feed Import -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hello, I have read the other “duplicate iCal import” threads and most of them are private replies, so I can’t really determine if those are helpful or not.
