[Bug 1600665] [NEW] Google calendar URLs no longer work in Google Apps block

 

Public bug reported:

See https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=7649

I'm guessing that Google has changed the URLs for their embed strings
again, because the iframe embed snippet from Google Calendars no longer
works in the Google Apps block.

To replicate:

1. Get the "Embed this calendar" iframe snippet for a Google Calendar.
(See http://manual.mahara.org/en/16.04/blocks/external.html#google-apps
for details on how to do that)

2. Create a Mahara page with a Google Apps block

3. Past the embed code into the Google Apps block

Expected result: The calendar is displayed, embedded into the page.

Actual result: You see this error message in the block:

"Unable to parse embedded code or URL: <iframe
src="https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=example%40gmail.com&ctz=Pacific/Auckland";
style="border: 0" width="800" height="600" frameborder="0"
scrolling="no"></iframe>"
