Hi! So, I've got an .ics and I was able to upload that into Local Calendar. That all works. However, displaying it, is an entirely different issue. Multi-day events do not seem to be displaying properly, specifically in that my work schedule spans 6PM-6AM and this seems to not display anything.

This GitHub issue seems to mostly fit, and I think there's a couple different related ones, including one for the FrontEnd? I can't seem to find it right now, but my understanding is that Local Calendar doesn't seem to like multi-day events.

It's also not generating any errors with an ICS validator either and I can provide a sample of the content of the ics file. Thoughts?

Oh, just found the frontend one: https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/pull/14660 but attempting to do what this one does seems to result in nothing being displayed at all in mine but perhaps I'd need to edit the yaml?

... Should I try submitting a github issue anyway? Which github should I do that in?

Can you show an example of what you think is not working?

I mean... I'm not even sure if I can, lol. It just will not display anything. Even though I can see the ics file for it is present with the correct details.

#

It does however, display "Off". Not sure what that's in reference to, though.

#

I can't make it change to on or anything else, though. The option is greyed out.

Got back to playing with this and I think I'm starting to figure things out here.

#

I have no idea WHY, but this new file works to load my work schedule and that displays properly.

#

This one, however, does not.

#

... cleaning up old events. <_<

#

Or trying to. Eh... meh.

#

This is the one that seems to be broken in my Local Calendar.

#

Meantime since I've got the test calendar working, I'll get that one sorted.

#

I'd probably mark this as resolved but I want to know eventually, why that seemingly broken ics file seems to be causing issues in Local Calendar despite several different ics validators saying it's valid.

#

Making a new calendar with just the events, exporting it from Google Calendar and then importing it into Local Calendar did work and does display properly so...
