Why is event location not showing on my calendar?	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote
	[Delete this Thread]

For some reason, the location info is not showing in my events. I imported a file from Google Calendar, so I thought that there might be a problem with the field/column name, but then I tried entering a new event using localendar's input form, and the location still does not show up.

Any ideas?

location is not one of the fields currently mapped during an iCal location. Only event title, time/date, and description.

is this a foreseen mapping in the future?

It seems silly that when importing an iCal feed that you would not use the already existing location data. It makes it even more troublesome given iCal events cannot be edited within.

Yes - it and a few other fields are under consideration. But this is queued up behind a few other [more urgent] issues.

"location" is now being imported from iCal feeds (up to 120 characters).

If you have uploaded an ics, you would need to remove it and re-upload it for location to be pulled in.
