Currently, if I subscribe to an online ics-calendar, there’s no reminder for the event. And I can’t set one.
It might be so, that the calendar maintainer has not set a reminder. But, on web calendars, subscribers have their personal preferences for reminder timings.
I would like to be able to set a default reminder time for each calendar, and to be able to modify the timer of each event.
Quite much related to Birthday calendar reminders.
I’ve added some code in buteo-sync-plugin-webcal to filter events in iCalendar files and to add an alarm for each event: buteo-sync-plugin-webcal-filtered.
To generate the json-file that defines the filters, there’s webcal-filters.
So far, I haven’t made an rpm-file for installing these, so those who want to use these need to compile the plugin and the app.
I am often missing events published in online calendars due to this. I was wondering, if it is cumbersome to add notifications for such items, how about an ability to copy an event to personal calendar, where one could do so?
If you don’t need to update the events, there is harbour-icalendar-filters in Store. You can download an ics-file, filter it, add reminders and export to Calendar. But that does not automatically update the changes in the web-calendar.
