Hello everyone
We use quite a few seminars in our system; some have events with multiple sessions on multiple days.
In events with one session, confirmation emails contain the calendar meetings, which get added to the participants' Outlook calendar. However, for multi-session events the emails look like there is no calendar invite included. I've looked at the email source code, and the session date/times are there, but Outlook doesn't seem to recognise it. I've tried gmail, and it adds the first session into the Google calendar, but not the following ones.
So it looks like what's described in this post about patchy ical support for events with multiple days. The post is from 2012; is the issue still present?
I've enabled the setting recommended in the post (Site Administration -> Plugins -> Activities -> Face-to-face -> One message per day), but it's pretty clunky:
1. Now, managers receive more than one approval request email: one per each session. But they need to approve it only once, so they're essentially getting spammed with extra emails.
2. The confirmation emails look identical, so our users think they're getting duplicate emails. Can we customise those confirmations per session? We'd like one to say "Conformation - Session 1" and another "Confirmation - session 2" or something along those lines.
We're on Version 15.17 (Build: 20230322.00).
