Is it possible to import a google map location, when importing events from an ics file using your system.

Hello,

Yes it sure is. You can do it by GEO Location, or by address if it can find them.

Many thanks
Tony

Hello,

Sorry, but you would need the JEvents Managed Locations component to match up the locations. If you have this, please make login with your club account and we provide some assistance on that.

Many thanks
Tony

I am now have the locations module. Can sort of import map, but there must be an issue with Google API. Have copied 2 types of API into the config, but get the message oops something went wrong. I tried creating a location manually and get the same issue, so I am guessing if I can resolve API the import will work.

I have sorted the error message. Apparently it is necessary to enable the API for java.
