I would like to output something like this:
<li><a href="link to event in calendar">Title of Event - Date of Event using Month, Day format</a></li>
This would need to output the next 3 events from today forward.
So far I have been able to do it all except for the link and reformatting the date. Is this possible? Thank you.

Looks good, but how i get URL of event detail? Somethink like this https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r/day/2021/9/11?eid=Y2xoNjhjMWw2aGgzOGI5bjYxaGpjYjlrY2RqNmNiYjI2ZGgzNmI5b2M0cGowZTFsY2tzajBjajQ2ZyBsc2w1MmEwMTcydDdiczRndGdrbTViMWdzMEBn&ctz=Europe/Prague&sf=true

i have it

i have it

How were you able to get the url of the event? Also did you see my comment about reformatting the date? Is that something you could help me with?

I added new functionality which can do it. Here is my version with example:
https://gist.github.com/Kcko/901b82682bcd14a511b1bb4939cd5543

Is needed to add identificator of your calendar as a second argument (see example).
Your question about date - It belongs to the basic operations in PHP, what exactly do you not know?

@Kcko For some reason your fork doesn't work getting the URL for me.

As far as the reformatting the date, I need to change the date('Y-m-d') to date('F j'). I have tried replacing using all instances or individual instances, and it either does nothing or breaks the page. I have also tried adding $date = date('F j', $date); to my code, but that didn't work either.

Here is the code I am using to output what I want.
$events = $iCal->eventsByDateUntil('+30 days', 3);
foreach ($events as $date => $events)

{
foreach ($events as $event)
{
echo "

" . $event->title() . " - " . $date . "

";
}
}

The other I am getting is that I should only be outputting 3 events, but if the date is the same, it doesn't count them into the total. Here is an example:

• Last day to withdraw with “W” grade - First half block - 2021-09-24
• Free GED class Orientation - Du Quoin morning - 2021-09-28
• Free GED class Orientation - Murphysboro Afternoon - 2021-09-28
• Student Senate meeting - 2021-09-28
• PTK Honor Society meeting - 2021-09-28
• Honor Society Information Session - Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society - 2021-09-29

I am getting 6 returned, I believe because 4 have the same date.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

The simplest date conversion:

$date = '2021-09-24';
$newFormat = new \DateTime($date);
echo $newFormat->format('F j');

My fork works fine :)
You're probablyy making a mistake somewhere, show me how to use it

Anyone else having trouble with recurring events using this class?
I have an event that starts on 2021-11-03 14:00:00 and ends at 2021-11-03 17:00:00(3hr long event) and recurs 'weekly' for two additional weeks.

When I parse the recurring event I get this back:

First event in the series - reports correctly
startdate of 2021-11-03 14:00:00
enddate of 2021-11-03 17:00:00

Second event: - incorrect
startdate of 2021-11-10 14:00:00
enddate of 1969-12-24 23:00:00

Third event: - incorrect
startdate of 2021-11-17 14:00:00
enddate of 1969-12-17 23:00:00

Does anyone know why I am receiving a 1969 date??? The start date is incrementing by 7 days each week, so what's going on with enddate?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

@edewaal97

It turns out that the problem was on line 436.

You need to set the $this->_timeStart variable to a temp variable before adding it to duration else you will run into issues as I described above. The logic is sound but the original implementation was incorrect.

Here is the fix(this allows timestart to be added to duration correctly.)

$ts = $this->_timeStart;
$this->_timeEnd = $ts + $duration;

Hope this helps someone looking at this class in the future.

Thank you,

ML

Thanks @mlongoria1 - that was flummoxing me too!
