Edit this Post   Not Syncing Properly with Google Calendar Reply to this Post

[Delete this Thread]

Hello,

I've been using Localendar to allow organizations to submit there event to a school wide calendar that gets displayed on a Google Calendar on a website. Recently, none of the new submissions have been syncing with Google Calendar. I have tried numerous times to re-share/export the iCal calendar feed to Google Calendar, but now every time I add the calendar by URL, nothing shows in my calendar at all.

This is very new and has never happened before. I have tried it with multiple Google accounts and I cannot seem to properly add the calendar to any of them. Here is my link for the calendar:
http://localendar.com/public/SGATechOfficer?style=X2

No matter what I do, it does not seem to prorperly load. I have tried it in Outlook Calendar, and there is populates correctly.

Any ideas on why this is happening and how I can fix it? Thanks in advance.

Whenever I read a member has an issue with a feed, the first thing I do is validate it to make sure we aren't exporting anything crazy:

So I pasted http://localendar.com/public/SGATechOfficer?style=X2 in at http://severinghaus.org/projects/icv/

The calendar validates correctly. Given that (and that it also works in Outlook) I would suggest you reach out to Google. Beyond providing a valid, working feed, there isn't anything else we can give to Google to process (nor do we have any visibility into their code)

Yes.. it is frustrating when you just want to say 1) I have a valid file here 2) it doesn't import 3) can you tell me why?

I get the sense that sometimes you're just supposed to assume "it's Google, they're perfect.. it's your fault" since they don't engage directly with users the way most non-behemoth sites do.

If there is a problem on their side, it makes it hard to fix. And if they're expecting something outside the iCal spec, we have no way to know b/c of their silence.
