Google Calendar (bCal) Instructions

To subscribe to an iCalendar feed using Google Calendar:

1. In the left column, click on the Add link in the Other Calendars section.
   
2. From the menu select Add by URL.
3. Enter the feed URL in the dialog box then click Add Calendar.
   
4. NOTE: There appears to me no way to manually set how often the calendar is refreshed in Google Calendar (or bCal). There sometimes appears to be long periods of time with no updates. If the calendar appears to be "stuck" (not updating) after a few days, you can try unsubscribing from the Calendar on the settings page and re-subscribing using the feed URL with a random query string appended (e.g., https://demo.joinourclass.com/feeds/calendar/feed/blJpdXNmRldTOGY1V0VXRmZvcWlndz09?noCache&id=2 ). See http://www.binarysludge.com/2012/02/01/how-to-force-refresh-google-calendar/ for details.
