Funny Behavior in iCal feed.....?
I have my PTE calendar showing up in my Google Calendar as an iCal feed. Just yesterday all of my plan to eat items started showing up with numbers next to them. Ack! Is there any way to get this to stop? It's pretty distracting/cluttering, and makes my calendar harder to read.
I know I said I wouldn't bother you any more this month, but since this wasn't my doing, I gave myself permission. ;)

I added numbers so they would be ordered/sorted like the website. I am going to remove a number if there is only one recipe.

Gasp. It's now almost back to normal! Numbers only appearing if there are three or more more recipes. THANK you. :) :) :)

What is "seemepp"?

I have no idea! I think the "Sent from mobile" is a good indicator that I
sent that by accident. :)

And here I thought there was some secret txt code that I hadn't learned yet.
How disappointing. ;)
I see that you have added Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner. Congratulations-- I know
that's something you have been planning for awhile. I disabled the feature,
since we don't use it, but now find that all of my PTE iCal fees have a big
"X" in front of them. I'm guessing this is by design. If it's not, and
there's a way to get rid of them, that would be lovely.

hehe. Thanks and I'm glad you figured out how to disable the B/L/D feature.
The X: in the feed stands for extra (or other) and is there so it will be
ordered after (S)upper. I'll update it so it only adds it if it needs to be
there. Thanks, Clint

I'm having funny behaviour in my iCal feed on Google Calendar too; I used the iCal url to import the PlanToEat Calendar and it worked fine initially, but hasn't updated to reflect the latest changes that I made on PTE. I logged out of both PTE and GCal to see if that made a difference, but no luck...
So impressed with PTE so far otherwise!

It's a keep known issue that google calendar takes a long time to update
their feeds. I can't remember the interval but it's possible that they only
update once a day. Google must be aware of it, because there are countless
complaints, but there are no indications that I have seen that they are
working on a fix. I just update my PTE calendar, ignore my google calendar
for a day, and all is well.

Thanks Shelley - I checked this morning and you're right, it's updated now so that must be it...

I guess I'm just dense, but what is the ical feed for Plan to Eat?
Support Staff 14 Posted by Clint on 22 Apr, 2011 03:02 PM
The iCal feed is a file that includes your meal plan from Plan to Eat that
you can then share with other calendar software. You can find your iCal feed
by clicking on the button "View Options" and then "Settings" at the top of
your planner.

I have double checked my google calendar and it is still not showing my PTE recipies for this week. I re-added the link. When I clicked on the link in google, it opened up in my outlook calendar and had all the meals listed there. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any ideas?

Check with Calen Goo on the updates, it sync's all the time with that app that I have for my Itouch. There is a 'sync' feature as well as it just does it whenever.
