  I am having a problem with the Upcoming Events widget not showing the correct times.

  Currently, the times are 5 hours off. A meeting scheduled for 7:30pm on Monday November 18th is showing for 12:30am on Tuesday November 19th.

  My site: http://octorarataxes.wordpress.com/

  Feed: http://www.octorara.k12.pa.us//site/handlers/icalfeed.ashx?MIID=1

  What can be done to fix this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there –

  Hmm. Can you please try getting the iCal feed in the way described here:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/upcoming-events/#getting-a-calendar-link

  Let me know if the times display correctly for that feed.

  Ok… so instead of the original iCal feed found at http://www.octorara.k12.pa.us/Page/2, I took the feed Google Calendars creates when it pulls the original feed. It looks like:

  https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/meejqpii637v7ic9l81a6gj8fvd3j1kg%40import.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

  Nothing changes… the widget is still 5 hours off.

  Hi Timothy – Ok, thanks for trying that. There’s an open bug report for incorrect times in this widget that our developers are currently investigating. I’ll be in touch as soon as I have more information about this.
