    Please check if this option is activated: Events > Import Feeds > ICS > your Google feed > On refresh, preserve previously imported events that are missing from the feed.

    Hi,

    We do not have that option checked.

    The only thing we have checked is Assign default time zone to events in UTC

    Everything else is unchecked.

    Hi,

    So this is what I just tried:

    1. Deleted one of the events on Google Calendar that was being duplicated when importing.

    2. Then deleted the feed Calendar for this in WordPress.

    3. Re-added this event using a different name on Google Calendar (same calendar though). So I changed the name of the event from “Toledo Women in Leadership Symposium” to “Toledo WIL”. The date of the event stayed the same.

    4. Re-added the feed for this calendar in WordPress.

    5. It then ends up importing BOTH events again, “Toledo WIL” and “Toledo Women in Leadership Symposium” even though “Toledo Women in Leadership Symposium” is no longer on Google Calendar.

    6. I downloaded the ics file of this calendar and it does not show “Toledo Women in Leadership Symposium”. It’s only showing the updated calendar “Toledo WIL”

    7. So it seems like it’s not a Google Calendar issue? More like a WordPress issue?

    Please help. Thank you.

    Note on #2 in the post above: When I deleted the Calendar feed I also chose to Remove Events.

    Update: We have this calendar feed on another website and it’s doing the same thing for this specific event.

    We found the problem.

    Reoccuring events on Google Calendar corrupts their ics file and causes this problem.

    The fix is to not use reoccuring events on Google.
