@sdetweil Awesome. thanks for the follow up!

@sdetweil This may or may not be related, so I’m happy to start a new thread.
I have a weekly D&D game, scheduled for every Saturday evening. The ICS reads as
BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210319T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210319T230000 DTSTAMP:20210316T001016Z UID:**REDACTED** RECURRENCE-ID;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210320T200000 CREATED:20210213T021153Z DESCRIPTION:**REDACTED** LAST-MODIFIED:20210315T194037Z LOCATION:**REDACTED** SEQUENCE:1 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:D&D TRANSP:OPAQUE END:VEVENT
However, I rescheduled this week’s event for Friday, which reflects correctly on Google Calendar, but now all the entries on the mirror have been re-calculated as being on every Friday going forward.

@ctkjedi can u show the updated ics event with the rule (repeating rule)…
this one is not repeating

@ctkjedi thanks… I submitted fix #2488 for this… the library that does repeating rules ASSUMES the date is in local time, not utc time (from the ical parser library)
this fix has also been accepted for next release (April 1)

@sdetweil Rockin!
-
@ctkjedi The module is fine. Well, kinda. I had a problem where weekly events were showing up 6 days late. My problem was I had Google Calendar repeat frequency set to “weekly.” It started working when I set it to “every 7 days.”
Adjust the frequency on Google and see what it does.

@memphismark thanks. there were a couple more bugs related to daylight savings, and full day events.
one more fix to go in

Specifically, it was a weekly occurrence that started after 6pm on Saturdays. It worked fine any other time and DOW. It busted my brain until I solved it by doing the IDIC thing. :-)
