Google Calendar sync does not update everything

I'm seeing issues with the Google Calendar sync. It seems to sync random appointments from my calendar. But it does not sync all the appointments. I can't see any clear idea of what is and is not syncing. I have all my calendars selected as pull. It will pull some from a particular calendar, but not others.

Google Calendar sync behaves strangely

I currently have multiple calendars within Google Calendar. I have one for my personal items, one for work items, one for the family and one for each of my kids. When I try to sync it, some items show up and others do not. Also, weekplan does not segregate which item is from which calendar. Finally, when having both the push and pull set, it is duplicating the item within Google Calendar. I'm positive this happens if I make any changes within weekplan.


Is there a clear instruction on how you are utilizing and sharing the data with Google Calendar, so that I can implement it properly?

Below, you can see that I have several events on my google calendar that do not show up on my weekplan calendar. I've also attached the settings for the calendar sync. If you look on Thursday, you can see that it has duplicated one of my events as well.

Still not working... Doesn't pull from other calendars past the first one selected.

I’m seeing a little different behavior. It seems to pull from all my calendars. But, if I accidentally delete an item from Weekplan that was from my Google Calendar, it never comes back. This is especially troublesome, because I did this for a recurring item. Once I deleted one of them, it has never come back. It is also variable about how quickly any new items show up. Most of the time, it is immediately after triggering a sync. But sometimes, even then it does not show up.


Currently, I’ve given up with having anything from Weekplan pushed onto my Google Calendar. It just gets completely cluttered from this. Also, once I assign an item to a role, it re-creates a duplicate of the item on whatever calendar is set for push.
