Does not show some events

Same, I have three blocks, and they are showing last March, October and November respectively. All have events for this month + the future, none of which are private.

(This is true even with the cache disabled)

The script I wrote for the php site I'm transferring content from (to drupal) works ok on the same calendars

Try the dev version

Thanks but I just tried it and now it displays no events at all :/

I am having the same issue. I've tried several different calendar feeds. They are all behaving differently. On one, that is an older calendar that's been around for a while, it is showing events from last august. On newer calendar, I am only getting events from next week and later, but nothing from this current week.

Is there something that has to be done on Google's end to configure the event feed?

I have this same problem. GCal shows nothing but old events and that makes this module pretty much useless.

Has anybody found a solution for that?

I had the same issue. Using an older version of simplepie.inc fixed it. Hope this helps others too.

This happened to me when using SimplePie 1.2. When I downgraded to 1.13 it worked. Hopefully a future release of SimplePie will fix this.

I've downgraded to SimplePie 1.1.3, which has partially fixed the problem - I can see future events now, but the first two events are both "Christmas Day 1 January, 1970all day".

Any one have any suggestions for fixing this?

I ran into this issue with the 6.x-1.4 version but also needed the multiple calendar functionality that the dev version has in the block settings.
I upgraded to 6.x-1.x-dev to get that first and then moved on to addressing old events.

My SimplePie version on the simplepie.inc file is 1.2.1-dev. Drupal core version 6.19.

I added this to the gcal_events.module file on line 764 and it seems to have fixed the issue for me at this point.

      if($unixdate < time()) {
        continue;
      }

I would think that there might be a case to show old events. If so, I think it would probably need to be a per block setting similar to the "Show events from today only" setting. Like a "Show Only Future Events" setting which could trigger something like I have above.

That way you could have a block on say an archives page that shows old events and then have another that only shows future events.

Please correct me if what I have done is not the right way or suggest a better way to handle this.

I have the same issue where events on the online calendar are deleted but persist on the website GCal module display block. I made the above suggested change and it torpedoed the site with the following error message:

Fatal error: Cannot break/continue 1 level in /home/mediaq/lgsgsa.dreamhosters.com/modules/gcal_events/gcal_events.module on line 765

Thoughts/suggestions?

Thanks jimmynash, Have been using your addition with 6.x-1.x-dev for a while now but have since changed to 6.x-1.4.

I have found that a similar thing can be done in this case:

For Gcal events 6.x-1.4:

in file gcal_events.module (/sites/all/modules/gcal_events/gcal_events.module)

Find:
foreach ($temp as $item) {

Add after:

// Failsafe to remove previous events
if($item['date'] < time()) {
	continue;
}

hondaman900 just check your version no as to which of these two corresponds.
Implementing jimmynash's code on a new line just below $gcal_date = date($dateformat, $unixdate); for 6.x-1.x-dev should work. This corresponds to line 764 if your version is correct and code hasn't been touched.

I had a very long look through the code and from what I can see the arguments which define the dates are dropped at $feed->set_feed_url($calendar_xml_address); on line 603.

I have a calendar with events throughout 2011 and 2012, yet GCal v 6.1.4 only shows the dates occurring after January 20, 2012. Any thoughts on why this happens?

@rlca - which simplepie version are you using? Downgrade to 1.1.3 to see if that solves your problem. Make sure to clear the cache.

@ jdwfly - that seems to work. Thanks!

Where can I find version 1.1.3? The only download available at their site is 1.2.

https://github.com/simplepie/simplepie/tarball/1.1.3

That will get you a tar.gz of it.

Downgrading to 1.13 did not work for me but Minicraig's hack did. Perhaps this can be added to the next release.

Thanks Minicraig!

6.x requires the older Simplepie.
