Hi Dan,

There shouldn’t be anything that can conflict, but can you provide a link to an example page? That will help clarify what’s going on.

Hi,

Thanks for that.

Can you go to the Event Espresso Template Settings and make sure that the option “Display an “Add to my Calendar” icon/link in the event templates?” is set to Yes.

Hi Dan,

It looks like you are using WP Super Cache.

You will need to add all Event Espresso pages (visible within Event Espresso -> General Settings) to the do not cache list.

As you have change the default pages your’s will be different page names to mine, but here is a quick example: http://take.ms/jQpxi

This is within Settings -> WP Super Cache -> Advanced.

You’ll then need to save the settings and rebuild the cache.

Is the iCal link then displayed?

Disabling the plugin does not actually remove the cache with WP Super Cache (or most for that matter) so simply disabling the plugin will not actually fix caching issues.

The registration page is still being served from cache, you can see this by viewing the source, at the bottom of the page you’ll see this: http://take.ms/qZEQA

Wait a few seconds, refresh the page and look at the source once more. Notice the time didn’t change?

Clearing your Browser cache removes the cahce from your local install, but not the server.

You’ll need to re-enable WP Super Cache, Go to Settings -> WP Super Cache.

Disable Caching, then Delete the Cache. Like this: http://take.ms/qTj4y

Then reload the page. WP Super Cache should then not be caching the page.

Also, have you modified the event_list_display.php template? On line 183 of that file should be

<?php echo apply_filters('filter_hook_espresso_display_ical', $all_meta); ?>

This line is used to display the ical.

In this case I would try a full troubleshoot.

Switch to a default WordPress theme (you can do this without actually changing the theme using a plugin such as Theme Test Drive) such as twentyfourteen and re-test. Is the iCal display then?

Temporarily de-activate all other plugins other than Event Espresso and refresh the registration page.

Then if it is displayed activate the plugins one by one to find which one is causing the issue and report back so we can investigate.

Hi Dan,

You can also test a different theme without disrupting the look of the site for everyone else by installing the theme test drive plugin

My guess on the reason why you’re not seeing the ical link may be that the option needs to be reset. Can you try changing the ical template option to No, then save, then change to Yes, then save? This will ensure that the setting gets saved into the database.

Hi Dan,

It’s good to hear the issue has been resolved.

There is no way currently to synch the entire calendar in one go.
