I may not be forming the URL correctly. I can import the file, but it won't subscribe.

Error: Problem opening 'www.whiteville.k12.nc.us/calendar/calend...ty_Schools.ics'

I don't see an ical link for this calendar. I went to www.whiteville.k12.nc.us/calendar/month.php. I am not sure if that calendar supports ical downloads.

Sorry.. I think I had a quote there...

www.whiteville.k12.nc.us/calendar/calend...lle_City_Schools.ics

It is an ics file.

I used to use PHP iCalendar to display my ics files.

I would like to move to Zap... it is so much nicer.

I just tried it and I was able to get it to sync. There are a lot of events in that feed (over 2,200). You need to use the ical subscribe plugin, create a category dedicated to the feed, and enter the URL in the ical subscribe params in the category editor. You also need to set up a cron job or sync manually from the admin tools screen. If you don't have cron support on your host, Z Content can provide it. Let me know if this helps. Thanks.

Am I forming the URL incorrectly?

Code:

http://www.whiteville.k12.nc.us/calendar/calendars/ Whiteville_City_Schools.ics


Here is what happens when I run the update manually.

Code:

 ** Category: Whiteville City Schools Calendar (frequency: 1 hours)
Error: Problem opening 'http://www.whiteville.k12.nc.us/calendar/ calendars/Whiteville_City_Schools.ics'

There is a space before the word "calendars" in the URL in your error message. Could that be the problem? You can copy the URL from the category plugin settings and paste it into a browser to verify it is a valid URL.
