Import setting for DTEND with no specific end time

by **sfolkmann** » Mon Oct 22, 2012 9:21 am

I am trying to do an import to jevents, and I want to have the event setting JEV_EVENT_NOENDTIME set upon import.

What is the cell data for that setting, when I want to set it in the import csv file..?

Use a date without a time e.g.

DTEND:20121022

Just tried that, and that gives me a ending time on the current date at 00:00, but doesnt flag the NOENDTIME.

There is no concept of no-end time in the iCal specification so you have to simulate it in this way.

checking the code again I think you can probably trick the system using

NOENDTIME:1

in your iCal file - its not standard but JEvents should interpret it correctly.

Where should the NOENDTIME:1 ..?
I tried the DTEND and RRULE setting per event, with no result.

Sorry for being so thickheaded that I didn't figure this one out before replying.

I ofc created a new column with the setting and it worked perfectly.

Thank you for your help and time. :-)
