Be aware that the core plugin only supports ONE .ics import feed and up to 50 upcoming events. If you need more than one feed, you’ll have to move to a hosted calendar – either Hublite or Hub. See here.

I found all I needed to do was adjust padding-bottom of .slideshow-window as follows:

#content .slideshow-window {
padding-bottom: 68%!important;
}

Cheers Jezza!

Yes, just switch to text editor mode and add your markup as above.

I was getting the same fatal error under php 5.2. Now upped it to php5.4 and error no longer shows. Many thanks.

I’m seeing that behaviour too occasionally. It’s definitely down to the upload process exhausting memory as I always get a corresponding Apache error log like:

1215: PHP Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 209977344) (tried to allocate 13824 bytes) in /home/sites/xxxxxxx/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-image-editor-gd.php on line 329: /home/sites/xxxxxxx/public_html/wp-admin/async-up

I’ve contacted our host (HEART in UK) who have bumped up our php.ini files as follows:

max_input_vars = 2000; Allows more than 90 menu items
max_execution_time = 3000; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 300; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 512M; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume
file_uploads = on; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads
upload_max_filesize = 100M; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files
post_max_size = 100M; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept

Which are some quite hefty settings allow for shared, but files with dimensions of ~4000 x 6000 px still get the HTTP Error. I’ve advised client to resize with Photoshop online rather than implementing something like Upload from Server where the upload bit it done via FTP

That did the trick!

Many thanks for speedy reply.

UPDATE: This whole issue is as a result of the WP 4.4 update conflicting with AI1EC.

See this thread here for the solution.

I had set up multiple event categories with associated colours and images and didn’t want to have to reimplement.

So I used the Bulk Delete plugin first (By Custom Post Type/ai1ec_event (Published & Draft) Delete Now) – takes a while – 5 mins on shared server for ~650 events & it didn’t do them all in one go!).

Then updated the AI1EC Plugin to 2.3.5

I then went to each feed and refreshed them.

Worked fine and fix has fixed it!

Respect to @benjamin and team…

Wish I’d found this thread earlier. I’ve posted about this issue here which seemed to coincide with the WP 4.4 update.

I’ve wasted days trying all sorts of things….

@naturecoaster I’ve taken copy of my site local to try out the competition you mention and the same feeds work fine. You don’t need the pro version, just the basic version and paid for iCal importer @ $49. There’s a 3rd party plugin for colouring categories out there too. The calendar doesn’t have built in category filtering which you can then subscribe to, but does have a nice mini calendar widget.

I use both plugins across a number of sites, depending on the client sector. AI1EC is perfect for school sites, and now I know that they are about to release a fix, I’m going to wait to try it out before switching over to TEC.

UPDATE: I’ve taken a copy of the site to localhost MAMP. Deactivated all plugins except AI1EC. Deleted all feeds then added single feed (webcal://p26-calendars.icloud.com/published/2/-O0Ir0tja5_BBIWN2VBC-38pau4w1dI70TZKUvKMNtacXF0KL-JzE8hSjzsfmr1uFzqBCWrXo0OKU2CC7d2oxLxKb_DDtD8XK_vJy2eDjUk) with default options. Shows 22 events imported, and listed in All Events.

But none have a date time entry in the date/time column of All Events. When I examine each event it populates the event date/time fields with the date/time at that point when you hit edit!

If you exit the edit event without updating, it still doesn’t show on the calendar, but if you hit update, the event now has a time/date and will show on the calendar. But this is not the way we want to use the plugin!

Incidentally, when I activate the Advanced Cron manager I can now see ai1ec_cron at the top of the list. But when I execute it, the events still don’t have date/times assigned.

Have you got any further suggestions? This used to work!

Can you confirm/clrify your recommended method for obtaining the .ics url from iCloud please too.

Additionally, When I try to me these events without date/time to the bin, I get an ‘Error moving to bin’ alert.

I’ve noticed that when I have refreshed the feeds from iCloud/iCal, when I view ‘All Events’ the recently added events to iCloud are being imported but DO NOT have any event time/date assigned, which improbably why they are not displaying. Have you encountered this before?

Can I add a1ec_cron task using Advances Cron Manager?

I’ve done a manual reinstall of the plugin and still do not see the ai1ec_cron task. Any other suggestions, or what is my next step?
