Benjamin,

I don’t understand. According to: http://time.ly/document/user-guide/troubleshooting/first-troubleshooting-step/ The calendar IS working! So please explain what you mean I cannot import events.

Check:
https://groningen.piratenpartij.nl/kalender/ Here you see the calendar that needs to be imported.

The destination calendar:
https://piratenpartij.nl/kalender/ is also working.

The feed of Groningen ( https://groningen.piratenpartij.nl/?plugin=all-in-one-event-calendar&controller=ai1ec_exporter_controller&action=export_events) does give me an iCal file. So that is also working…

Second, I cannot shutdown plugins on a live site. So that is not an option. Also if I have to wait for the cron job to work, I will have to shutdown my site for a maximum of 12 hours! Which is not possible at all!

Update…. wrong conclusion from my side.

The problem is that calendar items can have an exclude date option. I had an item, that had a date excluded, and somehow that gave problems.

all-in-one-event-calendar/lib/import-export/ics.php line 1100:

$exception_dates = $event->get( 'exception_dates' );
$exception_dates = $this->_filter_rule( $exception_dates );
                if ( ! empty( $exception_dates ) ) {
                        $params    = array(
                                'VALUE' => 'DATE-TIME',
                                'TZID'  => $tz,
                        );
                        $dt_suffix = $event->get( 'start' )->format( '\THis' );
                        foreach (
                                explode( ',', $exception_dates )
                                as $exdate
                        ) {
                                // date-time string in EXDATES is formatted as 'Ymd\THis\Z', that
                                // means - in UTC timezone, thus we use <code>format_to_gmt</code> here.
                                $exdate = $this->_registry->get( 'date.time', $exdate )
                                        ->format_to_gmt( 'Ymd' );
                                $e->setProperty(
                                        'exdate',
                                        array( $exdate . $dt_suffix ),
                                        $params
                                );
                        }
                }

The variable $exception_dates was not empty, but had a wrong value. After removing the excluded date, it is working again!

So I think there is a bug in the part that handles the excluded dates from a repeated item.

Thanks, that was pretty obvious … Maybe I should think first before asking 🙂

But it did not help me. I will add some extra information which makes the case even more strange.

I have the same calender code on multiple websites with the multi site setup. All the calender can be exported except one. So now I get the feeling, that there is a strange DB issues somewhere.

Here are three calendars, which are all running on the same WP and plugin version:
https://piratenpartij.nl/kalender/
https://amsterdam.piratenpartij.nl/kalender/
https://groningen.piratenpartij.nl/kalender/

For all calendars, the import from external source is working. And the only the first calendar does not export the data. And that is the only problem left.

The first url has problem with the export options. The other two below are working fine.

So could this be caused by the database? Maybe a WordPress option setting?

I do not get any errors. It just looks like it can’t find any data.
