On the http://groups.drupal.org/events page it says You might be interested in our site-wide Ical feed. Also, each group maintains its own feed. Look for the calendar icon in the Group Events block.. However, there is no such calendar icon in that block.

A bit of investigation showed that the footer of the block added the icon using the php filter format which is no longer available.

To fix this, I made the following changes:

  • Modified the "event" view (see below)
  • Swapped out the custom "upcoming_group" views block for the "event" views block display (upcoming) provided by the calendar module (for both "blue beach" and "bluecheese" themes!) - actually both blocks were displayed for "blue beach" theme, so some users will see both blocks until the cache updates

The changes made to the "event" view are as follows:

  1. Set the date display format in the "Upcoming" block display to "default" to match the "upcoming_group" block which was swapped out.
  2. Added the label "Start" to the date display, again to match the "upcoming_group" block.
  3. Added "organic groups: groups" as an argument to the "Upcoming" block display
  4. Edited the "organic groups: groups" argument on both the "iCal" and "Upcoming" displays to set a default argument of "current group context".
  5. Attached the iCal feed to the Upcoming block display

Oh I forgot to add, I also added in a RSS feed at event/[gid]/feed though didn't attach it to any display.

The changes were made to both the staging and live sites.

@Caffeinated was able to find an ical link for Drupal Chicago events: https://groups.drupal.org/ical/354

This calendar link can be added to a Gmail / Gcal by clicking "Add by URL".

I assume you can get the calendar link for any group by replacing 354 with whatever group id you want.

The only development done on groups.drupal.org is to replace it. The plan seems to migrate it into drupal.org, as described in #2590497: [meta] Proposal to migrate groups into Drupal.org.
