 * Just to inform anyone interested in this Plugin, there is a new Version in the
   works which runs with recent Versions of WordPress/PHP.
    See the related Story(
   incl. Download Link) at [hoernerfranzracing](https://hoernerfranzracing.de/werner/?page_id=2115).

 * This plugin is totally free? Thinking about to add it to a WordPress Theme (plugin
   activate by install or putting it directly in the theme) with the event list (
   agenda) enabled.
 * At the moment there is a bug when using [show-ics-events]:
    “**BgCol**Noch ein
   Termin” I think this “BgCol” does not belong here (downloaded your current version
   today). — EDIT: Ah okay found it, “ics-functions.php” on line 68, you want to
   add color fields in the backend.
 * Anyway this looks very promising because it is simple yet powerful.

 * Hi,
    yes, this plugin is free, License GPLv3 – see file readme.txt. but no, bundling
   it with a theme is not a good idea, as zipped theme files are extracted to wp-
   content/themes, plugin files to wp-content/plugins by wordpress installer. also,
   activating themes is a different action from activating plugins (which would 
   both be necessary, anyway). there is also an updated version out there, which,
   apart from fixing the BgCol issue 😀 – has some more improvements, and a new,
   hidden feature: Month-specific calendar Pictures, see [my own Calendar](https://hoernerfranzracing.de/werner/?page_id=1413).

 * Hi Hoerner,
    great news. I think I will take this plugin and try to add some 
   more stuff. Tested it a little bit and it seems to work very fine!
 * Btw. you can activate plugins at theme activation with **TGMPA** ([http://tgmpluginactivation.com/](http://tgmpluginactivation.com/)).
   I always do this with “Nested Pages” (better pages overview in dashboard) and“
   Save SVG” (upload SVGs in WordPress) which are essential for me. You can also
   create pages at plugin activation with this – in case you need a “home” page 
   or whatever.

 * Ok, thanks for the TGMPA proposal – didn’t know this, so far.
    And yes, of course
   you are free to add to/modify the ICS Calendar Plugin. Would be nice to post 
   here when you have something new to check out… In general, I would have preferred
   if the original Author could have been reached and agreed to hand over maintainership.
   But as this does not seem to work out, I’ll just keep my own version alive on
   my website – I’m not intending to create a fork, nor ask the WP Plugin admins
   to transfer maintainership (which would be a rather tedious process, anyway).

 * Hi Hoerner,
    but maybe put it on github?

 * well, that would be another option, right.
    but, ATM, there is always the direct
   download link on my own website, which I think can be found by people searching
   for ‘wordpress ics calendar’ (leading to this old WP Plugin, then read support
   forum..). anyways, I’ll have a look at how to publish something on github…

 * Hi Hoerner,
    github is very easy and free. People can collaborate to a project
   if they like it – take a look 😉 . If you prefer a UI you can use [https://desktop.github.com/](https://desktop.github.com/)(
   I use it).
