Easy guide for moving from Event Module to the Calendar Module

There has been lots of talk about this on the Event Module issue queue as well as the Event_View issue queue

Here is a simple solution, export Ical feed from Event Module and then Import to CCK Date Fields using FeedApi

Step 1 - Export

An Ical feed of all your Events can be created using the URL

http://www.example.com/event/YYYY/MM/DD/ical/all/all/DURATION

Where YYYY/MM/DD is the beginning date

and DURATION is the number of days after the beginning date to include

e.g. http://www.example.com/event/2009/07/09/ical/all/all/100/ will provide an Ical feed for events starting on 9th July 2009 and including next 100 days

You can check if all the events you want are included at the URL below (same format as above)

http://www.example.com/event/YYYY/MM/DD/list/all/all/DURATION

Step 2 - Import

Once you are satisfied with the URL for your Ical feed you can now import this Feed to CCK Date fields following the instructions at http://drupal.org/node/341716

If you have no need for FeedApi anymore you can then uninstall it afterwards

This solution will only allow you to move the title, description and date information of your events however, if there are any extra fields they will not be moved over

There are also other solutions kicking around the events issue queue which will allow you to keep other data as well, such as this one here
