Note that even with that "Show events you have declined set to no" it will still not delete the events. They will just be hidden.
Let me resume this old thread - not sure this had been addressed in the meanwhile.
How to reproduce:
I got an invitation on google calendar. I decline it on google calendar (i.e. I click no, I am not attending).
When the event times comes, I still get the notification from checker.
This behaviour does not change if I hide or not refused meetings in Google, are they are shown in both cases in checker.
Desired behaviour:
I receive only notifications for events I have accepted or that I have not responded so far (so there is no risk to miss a meeting you haven't noticed yet)
Why it is a problem:
I have tens of recurring meetings I have been invited to, but never attend - like in the morning 5 standups etc. I get notifications from these meetings and I run the risk to become desensitized to notification and miss some important one in the bulk
Thanks for any help!
And thanks for building this, which I couldn't live without, Jason! :)
@Cesare Zotti Thanks for the details, can you make sure this option is enabled in your google calendar and let me know if you see the declined events in my extension? they should have a strikethrough in the event name.
It was indeed NOT enabled - i don't want to see declined events (which showed up anyways in the extension)
Anyhow, I tried checking and unchecking multiple times - I see all the declined events in your extension, regardless if that option is ticked or not (whereas obviously it works in the google cal - i.e. when ticked I do not see declined events)
thanks
Ok so the test I want you to perform is temporarily enable that "show declined events" and then double click the refresh button in my calendar popup window. Then if you have test event that you decline I want to confirm that the event has a strikethrough in my extension. If it does you should not be notified of it. For this test let's not use recurring events as this may add complexity.
