Event export to ics creates empty file	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote

Some of our Events are creating empty ics files when the Export to iCal or Outlook are clicked.

Here is an event where the export creates an ICS file with data. (good)

For some reason, our iCal export code did not like the "–" character (which is perfectly valid) in the second event.

We've coded a little workaround for that. It should work correctly now for you.
