Since we are talking about calendars, I will ask a mildly related calendar server question. Is there a solution out there that would allow me to automatically prefix events in calendars that are shared with me? For example, I see my girlfriend's calendar with an event called "Work". I don't want to think it applies to me, so I would like to see it as "Princess Peach: Work". Can I do this without hacking an existing CalDAV server to use as an intermediary?
I did try a script that takes a URL to an iCal file and adds the desired prefix, then spits out a new iCal file. Alas Google Calendar has a years old issue where it has no way to force it to pull updates to iCal files with any reasonable frequency. And of course I want the solution to work on phones as well as desktop browsers so a Chrome extension is not a solution.
Bonus points for a solution that would let me munge event names arbitrarily according to regex rules, and to combine multiple shared calendars into one.
- edent 10y agoThe default Google Calendar does this on Android and Web. It allows you to assign different colours to the calendars you have. So my work is blue, my personal is green, my wife is purple.
- IgorPartola 10y agoI wish that worked except there are not enough distinguishing colors to mark up all the calendars I have. Also iOS calendar doesn't do that.
