iCal, Google Calendar, "Add Url"

I have been hunting for information on how to do this, and it would be a great feature to add the ability to present the iCal feed as a Yahoo and Google "add to calendar URL" as seen on Meetup.com and Eventful.com as well as many other event sites I would presume.

I am thinking that the iCal Feed display could handle this quite well by adding an argument that would change the display.

I believe the problem lies in Google Calendar not liking the "rrule" fields. Commenting the "RRULE" line out of calendar-view-ical.tpl.php seems to fix Google's inability to "Add by URL".

A work around is to create the alias "calendar.ics" of path "calendar/ical". Google parsed this fine for me.

Hi There,

I have a G1 mobile which uses Google Calendar and a drupal 6 site running date / calendar 2.1. I have the ical working fine. I subscribed to: http://nafof.org.uk/calendar/ical

I did have some issues with this; as in all past events had an end date of the ical generation date (usually today). But this is fixed in recent builds.

using calendar 2.1 and date 2.2

Also tried the workaround from #3, but when I try to add this to Google Calendar it says "We could not parse the calendar at the url requested".

I noticed this same issue. If I download the .ics file from the ical feed, it can import it (as a file) to Google Calendar without a problem. If I paste the default ical feed link (http://mysite.tld/calendar/ical) into the 'Add by URL' option in Google Calendar, I get an 'could not parse...' error (as with #5 above). If I simply change the path setting in the iCal display of the calendar view to calendar/ical.ics (i.e., add .ics 'extension'), then the new url works in Google. Go figure. Using Date 2.4 and Calendar 2.2 on D6.14.

#6 seemed to work, it pulled in my site title and didn't give me any errors.

Does it take time, like hours or days to actually show events?

subscribing....

I have tried #3 and #6 and none of them work.

Anyone have any success doing this? how?
