I’ve noticed that events synced from iCal scources, like Google Calendar, don’t include their location information in the topic that’s automatically created. This would be a huge help for Discourse boards that have events at more than one location.
Additionally, if this could be included with the date and time in notification emails it would go a long way in making events legible for email only users.
I’ve often thought this too - thanks for the suggestion!
Are you suggesting high fidelity location (as per our Locations plugin) or low fidelity (just text)?
I can see low fidelity being relatively easy to implement (although our focus is on other things right now).
A deep integration between Events and Locations would be sublime, but not an insignificant piece of work!
Low fidelity is more than enough for my use-case, especially if the address can be exposed via interpolation key, since that can be wrapped into a google.com/maps/search hyperlink.
When you create an event in a topic it shows up in the events calendar without its location as well, same for the ical feed that don’t take locations into account.(I am talking about the locations added using the location plugin)
