    Hello

    I’m having problems with a CalDav calendar at the server end and just want to rule out ICS Calendar Pro as a cause of the problem.

    I’m using ICS Pro and Basic Authentication (to login). My code to read the calendar is this – and made the amendments to my config file to enable the authentication:

    [ics_calendar url=MYCALENDAR reload=”true” location=”true” hiderecurrence=”true” eventdesc=”true” location=”true” title=”false” basicauth=”true”]

    And it was working fine. But, probably coincidentally, after performing an upgrade to the plugins my calendar on my server also got wiped. I’m just wanting to read my calendar and not write to it… so just checking this isn’t possibly happening?

    Thanks

    I’m not sure what might have happened on your calendar on your server, but ICS Calendar can’t be at fault. The iCalendar (ICS) protocol is inherently read-only; ICS Calendar has no way to write anything to the calendar server.

    I’m not sure how CalDAV may fit in here — ICS Calendar doesn’t support CalDAV at all. As for the Basic Authentication… we’re still dealing with an iCalendar subscription, so again it’s inherently read-only. There’s no way to write anything to the server.

    Perfect – thanks for the quick response.

    hehe – well… I guess the cPanel Calendar I’m using (which is CalDAV) supports ICS. Anyway, when it works, it works well. 🙂

    Just having server issues… urgh!

    Thanks again.

    Sorry to hear about that! I hope you’re able to get it sorted out.
