Holidays to include	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote
	[Delete this Thread]

I have been using Hong Kong iCal with my localendar for years but just found that the Hong Kong holidays are no longer shown in my calendar. Tried "Import more holidays and events onto your localendar using iCal!" many times and was failed to add it back with the following message appeared:

https://www.1823.gov.hk/common/ical/tc.ics was unable to be merged.

Please check that the url is working and the calendar is in valid iCal format.

The link works fine with other calendars like google and outlook.

I tested the file at https://icalendar.org/validator.html and found 51 separate errors, all related to the absence of the DTSTAMP value.

According to the iCal specification (https://www.kanzaki.com/docs/ical/dtstamp.html) DTSTAMP "MUST be included in the "VEVENT", "VTODO", "VJOURNAL" or "VFREEBUSY" calendar components." (emphasis theirs)

I am not sure what Google or Outlook are using in replace of this value, but as the spec requires it, so does localendar.
