Upcoming Events Widget Bug
-
How do we get this bug reported / fixed?
There is a bug in the Upcoming Events calendar widget. It does not correctly parse ics file lines folded as per RFC 2445.
Lines of text SHOULD NOT be longer than 75 octets, excluding the line
break. Long content lines SHOULD be split into a multiple line
representations using a line “folding” technique. That is, a long
line can be split between any two characters by inserting a CRLF
immediately followed by a single linear white space character (i.e.,
SPACE, US-ASCII decimal 32 or HTAB, US-ASCII decimal 9). Any sequence
of CRLF followed immediately by a single linear white space character
is ignored (i.e., removed) when processing the content type.While folded lines are recognised and concatenated into the correct field, the added whitespace character is not removed, resulting in erroneous white spaces in the field.
Can this be flagged for WordPress staff to add to the internal bug tracking system? It’s should be very quick fix to the ics parser.

Hi James, I’d be happy to report this for you. Can you send a screenshot of the offending behavior, and if possible include a link to a calendar that already has folding?

James, a developer followed up on this and resolved the issue. Take a look and let us know if you need more help. Cheers!
