Existing Google Calendar

Google has lots of help on their apps like Calendar. The Calendar Feed Parser plugin site does, too.

I found someone who used their email address like this:

https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/[email protected]/public/full

and it worked for them. So, I will try this.

P.S. I have disected the GFP plugin site and I guess that I am just not getting what they are saying. I am needing a little hand holding with this one.

Looks like you need to stick parameters on the end of the URL, like this general set:

https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/[email protected]/public/full?orderby=starttime&sortorder=ascending&futureevents=true&singleevents=true

Also, you might have problems depending in your web host, if they have disabled URL access for security reasons and as a result you’ll get PHP errors.

songdogtech,
Thank you very much. This worked perfectly.

In addition, the “WordPress Google Calendar Feed Parser Plugin with Widget” from Rob Z (located here: https://www.techknowme.com/blog/2009/06/download-rob-zs-widgetized-wordpress-google-calendar/) worked flawlessly for me and it allowed me to use widgets instead.

I could not get any of the Google Calendar or iCAL widgets working with the current Google calendar using WordPress 2.8.4, including this one. I did however finally get this working:

…using Feedburner for the “basic” google calendar feed, activate Buzzboost to drop the RSS into a Text Widget. That way you can also filter out the Event Status: Confirmed stuff, by modifying the Buzzboost script with excerptLength=5, which is the Title and Date only…
