I have done some testing to try to narrow the issue, but it seems oddly variable. I found some consistency with it breaking when I added images to the body of the event. I found more consistency when adding lightboxes, and still more consistency when adding 5 or more lightboxes. However, there were exceptions in each of those cases (for example, after some time, it was still broken even after deleting all but 4 lightboxes).<\/p>\n<p>I troubleshooted this somewhat extensively with the developers of my Theme. They concluded the following:<br \/>\n&#8220;It seems to me that they should strip the HTML of the event content (line 2673 in lib\/the-events-calendar.class.php) as Google Calendar complains when you pass HTML code in the calendar event&#8217;s details. It might also have something to do with the length of the details, but in any case this should not contain any HTML, in my opinion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I have tried this in multiple browsers, with multiple users, with cache and history clearing, and have experienced the issue across the board.<\/p>\n<p>I am in the process of testing this on a 2014 default WP theme with no extras in a subdomain of my account, but it is taking time to set up.
