Thread Topic iCal Export Feeds Available
Thread Body In our prior announcement we unveiled support for importing iCalendar feeds into your localendar. We now announce the ability to export your localendar as an icalendar feed.

The iCalendar feed for your public events is accessible at:
http://www.localendar.com/public/yourmembername?style=X2

With this feed, you or your visitors (there is also a small "iCal" icon at the bottom of your public calendar view next to the RSS icon) can add a live feed of your localendar to a Google, Outlook, Apple, or other calendar that supports the iCalendar standard. We export the full recurrence information for an event. In other words, if you set up an event to repeat every 1st Monday and 3rd Thursday in localendar and you import your calendar into Google, it will repeat the same way there, too.

Our support for merging in iCal feeds and publishing to iCal will be the primary export/import feature we will be concentrating on going forward (support for the Wyncs plugin will be discontinued in the near future, but we will still support CSV import/export)

When you edit events, the feed is automatically updated with the changes. Some programs may only download the feed once (like Google) so you might need to delete/re-add it to see the updates.

Other stuff:

  • The Feed noted above only exports Public events (since it's on your public calendar view). We will offer an iCalendar download of your entire calendar for logged-in members in the near future.
  • Events that are marked as "Move to Friday/Monday if this event falls on a weekend" will not be moved in the feed.

One more thing!
Like iCal merging, iCal exports (to both feed and file) will not require a Premium subscription. We will be adding some other features in this area, but all iCalendar functions will be free. In fact, all of the import/export functionality will be moving to "Free" in the near future.
