[O] org-class/diary-float entries do not sync (org-caldav)

[Saša Janiška]

Hello,

I’m trying to enter repeated tasks for e.g. daily language classes
during the month of July, daily (Mon-Frid) from 08:00-12:00 in my org
file and sync them via org-caldav to get them on my phone (synced with
OwnCloud with Davdroid app.

In the beginning I tried with the following:

** english class
   <%%(org-class 2016 7 4 2016 7 29 2)> 08:00-12:00 english class

and the entry is added to my Agenda as:

gour-calendar:english class        :gour::

but the time range is missing which can be ’fixed’ with:

** english class 08:00-12:00
   <%%(org-class 2016 7 4 2016 7 29 2)>

which gives entry for Tuesdays during July as:

gour-calendar: 8:00-12:00 english class           :gour::

The problem with the above is that it does not sync with
org-caldav-sync although it creates ID property.

Next thing I’ve tried is:


** english class
   <%%(diary-float 7 1 1)>

and the only way to get time range is to use:

** english class 08:00-12:00
   <%%(diary-float 7 1 1)>

but, again, the sync does not work and I also occasionaly run into
another problem - see this issue:

https://github.com/dengste/org-caldav/issues/91

By looking at org-caldav docs (https://github.com/dengste/org-caldav) it
looks that using org-class might be problematic indeed, but no idea why
the sync does not work with diary-float?

Moreover, there are several FAQs entries (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html)
showing similar/same examples and org-caldav docs says: „…If they are
inside an Org entry, there's a good chance they will be exported (see
below) and have an ID property, so they can be found by org-caldav…“, so
I’ll be grateful if someone can shed some light how to achieve the
desired result mentioned at the beginning?


Sincerely,
Gour
