Just to let you know how I solved the problem…

I introduced a custom post type which is largely hidden. When the plugin is activated a post of this type gets published (which no one can see) and with every settings update the post gets edited.

This post lacks event data therefore it does not show up in the calendar BUT Outlook thinks there is something unread -> synchronizes the ical feed.

Best regards,
Stefan

Could someone move this to the “Hacks” section please?

For those searching… it works like this:

var $j=jQuery.noConflict();

			$j(document).ready(function(){

				$j('a.submitdelete').click(function(e){		

					e.preventDefault();

					$j("#confirm-dialog").dialog({
						resizable: false,
						height:200,
						modal: true,
						buttons: {
							"Button1": function() {
								$j( this ).dialog( "close" );

							},
							"Button2": function() {
								$j( this ).dialog( "close" );

							}
						}
					}).show();
				});

			});

And of course you need a div somewhere in your wordpress page.

In the end this approach didn’t work out for me as in the post overview the dialog didn’t show up… because, right, there is no div in the post overview page 🙂
