GCal Events

GCal Events is a module which will display a block of upcoming events. The source for the events is a google calendar xml feed.

Features

• Can read from public or private google calendar
• Multiple (unlimited?) blocks can be set up, each configured independently
• Date/Time display format can be configured
• Timezone can be configured (PHP 5.1 and higher)
• Display uses templates, so each item (title, location, date, description, url, etc) can be configured for each block. Very flexible and powerful!
• Customizable "footer" to include brief information about the calendar ("provided by so-and-so", "updated weekly", a link to the full calendar, ical feed link, etc)
• Customizable "no upcoming events" text to display when no events are coming up.
• Recurring events are now handled!
• "Today Only" option at the block-level

Installation
SimplePie version 1.1.3 is confirmed to work with this module

1. untar into modules directory (sites/all/modules)
2. Download SimplePie (http://simplepie.org/)
3. Copy simplepie.inc into the modules/gcal_events directory
4. Create a cache directory that is writeable by the webserver (defaults to modules/gcal_events/cache)
5. Create an input filter to use for gcal_events (I recommend calling it gcal_events). You will most likely want this input filter to be accessible to anonymous users.
6. Make sure to select this new input filter in the gcal events module configuration.
