Date iCal
Installation
Date iCal has several required dependencies, and an optional one:
- The Views, Entity API, Libraries API (version 2.0), and Date modules are required.
- The iCalcreator library is required.
- PHP 5.3 is required by the iCalcreator library to properly handle timezone data. Date iCal *might* work with PHP 5.2, but that configuration is untested and unsupported.
- The Feeds module is needed to enable import of iCal feeds from other sites, but if you don't plan to import external calendars, you don't need to install it.
To install the iCalcreator library, download it from here and extract the zip file. Inside that file you'll find iCalcreator.class.php. Copy that file to a folder in your Drupal site named "sites/all/libraries/iCalcreator".

calendar. Then save the view.
4. Now you are going to create another view for event listing. Create a new view, 'events' as a page display. Specify Filter criteria by selecting the node type of the event. Add 'Content: Nid' as a new field and tick the
