Syncing of MEC plugin With Google Calendar is one of the presupposed features of modern event calender plugin. Here in this conversation between the MEC user and Webnus support staff you can learn how to do it for your own website.
MEC User
Hi,
The sync and import feature is not working correctly. When I import using a calendar ID the plugin imports some events under the category url and some will import under the name of the calendar which it wasn’t doing before.
Additionally, and more importantly, some events are not showing up that are showing on the Google Calendar.
Regards
Hello,
About Google Calendar I will explain and check to see what are you missing, watch the video in this link : This Link.
1- The Google Calendar should be public to import
2- The timezone on WordPress and Google Calendar need match together
3- APIKey should be enabled for Google, check the client ID tooIt has been explained how to do it in the video above
Cron Jobs, check these items :
1- Import manually for the first time so the API would be set in MEC.
2- Go toMEC Settings > Import/Export > Synchronization Tab, and copy the URL it provides.
3- Go to your site CPanel and use this URL in cron jobs
Please Note: Cron jobs is a feature of CPanel and you need to contact your host provider to set it.Best Regards
Events Configuration like pictures, Category gets overwritten with sync – is there any way to prevent this?
Hello,
make sure you have the latest version.
For troubleshooting, deactivate all your plugins and let the MEC remain active only, set your theme on default, then reload the page, if the issue was solved, then activate your plugins one by one and your theme, refresh your page and check to see which plugin is causing the issue.
if the issue remains, please go to support.webnus.net and there you can log in or sign up. to create a new ticket, simply head over to webnus.net/support and click on ‘Create a Ticket’ and share the required information.
sending screenshots or a short video and live URL of the issue would be helpful.
explain to us step by step how you set up this and how the issue happens?

I want to set up Google Calendar 2-way sync. I’m only seeing tutorials on how to import from one to the other.
Can you help me out with this?
Hello, you can check on an import/export auto-sync and click to save, e.g: https://ticksy_attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/7579495409.png but before doing that you should import manually in one time.
