Complex Recurrence Support for iCalendar Feed Imports

[Computer Candy]

IPS iCalendar Feed Imports do not support complex recurrence patters yet unfortunately. For example, our Parent Teacher Organization has meetings on the third Tuesday of each month with start and end dates set at the beginning and end of the school year.. We use a Google Calendar for these meetings in addition to our events and fundraisers. Google Calendar allows these sorts of complex repeatable patterns but when importing from our Google Calendar to IPS, our meetings are not imported.

We're trying to automate as much as possible to reduce work time. Please, please consider adding this functionality soon. Thank you. 🙂

For what it's worth, I'd like to see this too. It's a little tricky to get this right from a performance perspective (from a technical perspective it's not a huge deal, until someone creates an event to recur every second Tuesday of every month from the year 1000AD until 3000AD....yes that stuff happens), but it's definitely on the radar internally.
