I'm trying to follow instructions at http://drupal.org/node/341716
I have the following mods installed:

  • CCK, 6.x-2.8
  • Views, 6.x-2.11
  • Views UI, 6.x-2.11
  • FeedAPI, 6.x-1.8
  • FeedAPI Node, 6.x-1.8
  • FeedAPI Mapper, 6.x-1.3
  • Date, 6.x-2.6
  • Date API, 6.x-2.6
  • Date Repeat API, 6.x-2.6
  • Date Timezone, 6.x-2.6
  • Calendar, 6.x-2.2
  • Calendar iCal, 6.x-2.2
  • iCal parser, 6.x-2.0-alpha2

When I create my second content type, I received the message "Using FeedAPI for this content-type requires at least one enabled parser." The ical parser as shown in the image http://drupal.org/files/configure_content_type.jpg doesn't appear.
Is there something special I need to do to get it to appear?

Parser for iCal feeds. Version 1 works with FeedAPI. Version 2 is the parser for feeds. Both require Date module v2 DateAPI. Recommended to use Version 2 with Feeds.

.

You have FeedAPI installed so you need iCal Parser 6.x-1.x; or you need Feeds installed instead.

I have version iCal Parser 6.x-1.1 installed and it was visible but then today it disappeared. I can select it while editing the node type but it is not available when creating a feed node. It is the strangest thing. Does anyone else have this problem. I'm continuing to monitor my sites that are affected, which seems like one after the other is displaying the same symptoms. I don't think it's a connection between version 1.0 and 1.1.

Version: 6.x-2.0-alpha2 » 6.x-1.1

Is this repeatable behaviour. I can't see it happening.

I am not sure about repeatable behavior. I know I have it on a public server and a separate private one and it occurs the same on both. It is selectable in editing the content type but not while creating a node of that type. It does seem to be functioning, as in iCal fields are available for mapping and calendars are being imported. So maybe this is intentional behavior. It just seemed odd to me that it wouldn't be listed along with the processors when editing a individual node.

I'm having the same problems. I can't see the iCal Parser when creating a feed.

Was this ever fixed or did anyone ever figure out what was causing it?

I'm using Drupal 6.20 and I've updated all my modules to the latest ones.

Version: 6.x-1.1 » 6.x-2.0-beta1
Priority: Normal » Major

Still having the same problem even after upgrading to the 6.x-2.0-beta1 version.

Please help!! I need to have this working pretty soon.

TIA!

I think I found the solution.

The permissions were not setup correctly on my system. Once I allowed authenticated users access the iCal Parser was available.

Setting found here:
Administer|User management|Permissions

Look at the following:
Feeds module:
administer feeds
clear feed feeds
clear feed_fast feeds
clear node feeds
clear opml feeds
clear user feeds
import feed feeds
import feed_fast feeds
import node feeds
import opml feeds
import user feeds

What perms did you change when this started appearing?
Anyone had any other experience with this bug?

I believe I have a real solution to this issue. It was about 2 feet from the monitor. My issue completely.

It appears that simplepie and iCal parser aren't necessarily set up to play nicely on the base Feed content type.

What I had to do according to a tutorial found @ http://drupal.org/node/341716 was create another content type and enable it as a FeedAPI type with a parser and processor.

Et voila, it works now. Great tutorial btw.

ekes: Would you be willing to update http://drupal.org/node/341716 with your information from #2? I don't see that in the tutorial at all, and it sounds like critical information.
