org-caldav relies on upstream ox-icalendar.el for exporting Org to iCalendar, and it is ox-icalendar.el that adds the S/DL prefix to TODOs that are exported as calendar events.
There is not a convenient way to remove that prefix, and we have no plans to implement that.
Note that TODOs exported as proper iCalendar ToDos don't receive such a prefix (i.e. by setting org-icalendar-include-todo
and org-caldav-sync-todo
). However Google Calendar does not support iCalendar ToDos, so Google Calendar users are limited to syncing the Org entries as events instead of todos.
Got it. Thanks for the clarification. Just to be clear, though, these are not TODOs I am exporting to gCal, just regular entries with deadlines. I do have org-icalendar-include-todo
and org-caldav-sync-todo
set per the readme. Is that still the expected behavior of ox-icalendar.el in this case?
Yes I think that is the expected behavior of ox-icalendar.el -- see the variables org-icalendar-use-deadline
and org-icalendar-use-scheduled
.
Thanks so much. I'm going to close this since it seems like something I'll have to hack around ox-icalendar.el for.
Hello,
Thank you for this wonderful package. I am trying to remove the
DL:
/S
: prefixes prepended to the summary of Google Calendar events. I tried editing the following block inorg-caldav-convert-event-or-todo--event
from:to:
by applying some override advice, but that did not produce any visible result as far as I could see. Is there a way to do this conveniently? And might this functionality be considered for a future enhancement for those who do not require prefixes in their remote calendars?
