 * Would it be possible to get more granular on ics scope settings? We have a large(
   over 111,000 events) calendar mostly in the past. Our users would love to see
   the future events (a small percentage over the 5 years or so we’ve been running
   the plugin) as well as a reasonable amount of past events, probably a month’s
   worth for now. I would like to suggest a way to make the scope for the ics file
   work in such a way. I would be happy to submit a pull request if that would be
   easiest. Just let me know.

 * Hi Chris,
 * Have you tried making a custom scope, and selecting it for your ical settings?
   Aside from date ranges, you can within the same hook add extra conditions to 
   weed out unwanted events:
 * [http://wp-events-plugin.com/tutorials/create-your-own-event-scope/](http://wp-events-plugin.com/tutorials/create-your-own-event-scope/)
 * We’ve been made recently aware that the tutorial doesn’t include a snippet for
   the admin area (which we’ll be adding a filter for in next update) but that shouldn’t
   affect the front-end and the ical scoping.
