The plugin doesn't handle properly recurrent events. Here is an example you can try easily, with both the Google rendering and text view by the plugin for easy comparison :

{{iCalEvents>https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/2lmeg74hmnd78fqns881nl05rg%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics#from=today}}
<html>
<iframe src="https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=2lmeg74hmnd78fqns881nl05rg%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=Europe/Paris" style="width:800px;height:500px;"/>
</html>

Roughly, the cases are those ones:

  • Test 1 defined for a given number of repetition
  • Test 2 defined until a date
  • Test 3 defined as "1st wednesday of the month"

Yes, the plugin should handle recurrent events. The iCalcreator library actually supports them but in a weird manner, that's why it does not work at the moment. This may be a good reason to switch to sabre, another iCalendar library, see #4. It handles recurrent events much more naturally, see http://sabre.io/vobject/recurrence/ .

I can look into that but probably not quickly. Pull requests are always welcome of course.
