very dissappointed that Incomedia did not make clear to use the calendar you need an external program. Finally I find some information. I use Outlook that provide a ics file, but still does not work. I using a test site you can find :www.abbeypia.esy.es/page-184.html

Try use in php page.
Autore
sorry but could you explain how to use the php page? thanks
Hello Luca,
The calendar is visible on your page. Did the ICS file you imported contain events in it?
Many thanks!
Autore
The problem:it does not show the events - how to fix it? thanks
Luca,
As Serge alrwady stated, set the page to php
Go to page 184 in step2, select properties on the right, goto expert tab, set the page to php.
then goto step 5 , upload website, press next, then in the menu of your host select page-184.html select it and remove it with the red cross on top. now upload and check again.
You also need a package from your hosting provider that supports php5.
Most providers have this standard but not everybode so check this as well.
Let me know how it turn out.
The calender needs data almost all kalenders on your pc or on internet can export standard ics file's. I use reminder fox in fire fox (add on).

I followed you instruction but still not working, I check with hosting provider and I get the following: We use virtual user directory paths, so you can get error when trying to setup search engine friendly URLs or trying to pass virtual directory names to PHP scripts. If can be fixed very easy. Edit your .htaccess file and add this line at the top of the file or before the first rewrite rule:
RewriteBase /
Note: if your script is installed on some directory, for example /forum, you have to place RewriteBase /forum/ line to the .htaccess file (.htaccess file must be also located in /forum directory)
A bit complicated for me : where i get the .htaccess file and where i should insert rewriteBase/
Luca,
I don't know if it helps, but give it a try, it's not hard to do.
open notepad write down the text from your host. save the file as .htaccess (no extension) then save it on your pc
you can use the upload button in x5 in step 5 after selecting upload site and next, select the correct folder for the calendar, then use button on top to upload the created file.
Autore
get too complicated. I need a simpler solution
It''s not complicated, have you tryed it ?
or
create a small test project with a calender, add you ics file test it, or send it to me, I will test it with my provider, if it works it's a provider problem, then the solution would be take another inernet host / provider.
Autore
i have a small project with the calendar and ics file ; www.abbeypia.esy.es
I see and it does not work unfortunatly.
If you click my picture you will find my emaildres. If you wish you can export your project (step 5 export project, don't include backups or preview files)
send the file I will upload it to my provider to see if it is a provider problem or something in x5.
Thanks.
Best Regards André

ok, sent the project file
Got it.
I have uploaded it and there was no data.
So I checked the ics file and there was no data (no appointments) in the ics file.
Create a few appointments, then add the ics file to your project and upload it, and see if there is data in your Calendar then.
When there is data, then it works, to use it you need to add your data to any calendar. in most calendars you can link the created ics file directly to internet, this way your data will be visible in your calendar of website x5 directly.
hope thiis helps.
Best regards.
Autore
there are the different holidays and they dont show up,why ?
Luca, I don't know.
I did open the ics file and this message from outlook came up:
In the Hong-Kong-Contact-Calendar.ics there are no appointments, would you like to add it ? - (I translated from dutch)
If you want I could try to set some appointments and see if this works on your webserver, But I will need to acces your server and I will do this only with your conscent.
Can I ask where you want the calender for on internet, this might help me better to find a sollution for you.
Thanks,
Andre
Autore
thanks, just to give an idea how to intend to use the calendar just look at the other site:www.marinersclubhk.org 0n the home page there is alinks to a calendar that I made with table. But I was hoping with full calendar to have a more professional results.
Yes you have my consent to access the server
Luca,
I added some japanese (a standard holiday file from internet) holidays to your calander.
It all works.
You need to find a calender where you can add appointments and one that very simply updates the remote file that handles your / the calender entrys. ( I personally use reminder fox an add on in fire fox.)
Autore
reminderfox is fine but not enough space to insert long name, like The second day of Lunar newyear, etc. - you can look at www.abbeypia.esy.es
In that I can't help you. you are on your way using the Calender, it works now.
Filling it is something you need to find the best way for you.
Some tips:
Just some thoughts, I do know if they all work, just test it yourself.
Best Regards, Andre
