iCal in email confirmation

  • I’m trying to figure out how to get data into the invite.ics file that gets sent with event registration confirmation emails. At the moment, all I seem to get is:

    BEGIN:VCALENDAR
    VERSION:2.0
    PRODID:-//wp-events-plugin.com//6.3//EN
    TZID:Europe/Berlin
    X-WR-TIMEZONE:Europe/Berlin
    END:VCALENDAR

    At the moment, it doesn’t seem to add BEGIN:VEVENT. In the admin, I can find iCal feed settings, but nothing related to iCal in email confirmation. Has anyone perhaps worked on this and could give some pointers?

  • You can customize the confirmation email. Go to Events Manager Settings and click on the Emails tab then click on Booking Email Templates then under Confirmed Booking Email then update the Booking confirmed email field. Here are the placeholders you can add:

    iCal/Calendar
#_EVENTICALURL
Displays the URL of the event ical feed (ics file format).
#_EVENTICALLINK
Displays an html link to the event ical feed (ics file format).
#_EVENTWEBCALURL
Same as #_EVENTICALURL, but using the webcal:// protocol, which will open up various calendar apps automatically including iCalendar, Outlook and Google Calendar.
#_EVENTWEBCALLINK
Same as #_EVENTICALLINK, but using the webcal:// protocol, which will open up various calendar apps automatically including iCalendar, Outlook and Google Calendar.
#_EVENTGCALURL
Displays URL which would take the user to Google Calendar and pre-fill their add new event form.
#_EVENTGCALLINK
Displays a button which would take the user to Google Calendar and pre-fill their add new event form.

    I don’t see anything about attaching an event.ics file.
