Ability/option for a Meeting Maker to generate for events - after someone registers/for all who register for an Event have a pop up mtg maker (format= Outlook, iCal, etc.) with meeting details from the event already populated to easily add to one's calendar. This would be a HUGE improvement and efficiency for our members/users. Thank you!

This is extremely critical for us. People should be able to add to their calendar directly from email. They are not going to take the time to separately visit the webpage and add the event from there.

For most of our members, their calendar - whether it's iCal, Google, Outlook, etc. - is where their life resides. I want them to be able to add our events to their calendar no matter where they are reading about them. Even "Registering" for an event is essentially meaningless if that event registration isn't being instantly added to their calendar whichever one they use.

I see the "Add to my calendar" feature on the Event Details page, which seems to work great. But I'd like to propose that you add that same other feature in a few other places as well:

1) Event emails. This seems like the most obvious -- we send our members an email telling them about an event, I want them to be able to add it to their own calendars right then and there, whether it's a "Registered" event or not. Just embedding that same Add to my calendar widget would be good enough as a beta solution.

2) Events page. For many of our events, especially those that don't require registration, this is the page where my members are more likely to interface with the event itself. It's also where they see several of our events at once -- I want them to be able to easily add all of our events to their calendar without navigating back and forth to each individual Event Details page. There's plenty of white space to stick that feature -- perhaps directly to the left of "Show details >>" Would be great to have an "Add" button on each event in Calendar View too.

3) Event Registration: When a member registers for one of my events, ideally they would be proactively prompted with a pop-up or something that actively *suggests* they add that event to their own calendar, which is where they're most likely to remind themselves on the day. Would really help to cut down on No-Shows.

When we send emails, we would like to have the option to add an "Add to Calendar" link.

Create a macro for "add to calendar" that can be used in event mailings or event confirmations. This would increase attendance for events, especially virtual ones.

Furthermore, I wish to be able add a virtual link to the invite details. For virtual events, I currently use the "additional event information" field to provide a link to the virtual session, that registrants receive in the confirmation email. Registrants can add the event to their calendar from the event page, but the invite details don't include the virtual link, unless the registrant thinks to add it manually to the invite details. As an event is starting, most registrants find that they don't have the link at their fingertips and waste time going back to their email to find the link.

When people register for events, it would be nice if the event automatically generated on their calendar. So many people expect this feature these days, and sometimes they lose track of events they registered for if the confirmation only goes to their email. Most events I register for automatically appear on my calendar so I don't even need to think about it.

Ditto! Please

Can we have it so that when people register they automatically receive a calendar invite with their confirmation email?

I've seen that you can add to calendar from the registration page, but many folks expect a calendar invite to arrive to them once they have registered.

Echoing this need. It would be great if the option to add event to my calendar was right in the 'you are registered' email.

This would be super helpful for our members. We have members across the country and they have issues with time zone conversion. If they could have a simple button to add to their calendar that would solve the problem.

We would like to have a button to "add event to my calendar" available to use in event emails.

can this be done now?

Is there a way to do this with Integromat?

I'm surprised this isn't a feature already, though I understand the danger of an embedded calendar invite not updating if event details change later.

Create a macro for the "add to my calendar" link for each event. This would be useful to add to the confirmation email.

Agree and they don't want to add until they have the confirmation.

Please include "add to calendar" to event ANNOUNCEMENTS as our organization does not "register" participants. The method described to my by support is cumbersome...
* go to public view
* go to event list
* click on the event
* click on upper right "add to my calendar"
* SAVE the .ics file to your computer some place you can find it.
* go to admin view
* go to the event
* edit the event
* insert file
* browse computer for .ics file and insert it

there is "Add to my calendar" button in event details - for members or visitors. Is this what you need? Or something else?

Add events being attended to a local calendar

you need to think through the update process: embedding a calendar entry in someone's calendar doesn't help much if the event gets changed. Do you remember to RE-send to all those affected?
