Platform:AllCompleted

Create new Task:
Name
Description
ect.

1. Choose: "Scheduled time" to define starting date
2. Do not select "Deadline" because the endtime is by definition +1 hour!
(So when I select 1 o'clock as start time, the application sets automatically the deadline to 2 o'clock.)
3. Click "Sync with Google Cal"
4. Loook at Google Cal -----> Nothing synced!
5. Go back to the task, edit task, and select deadline data picker, but dont change anyting, just click save with the automatically selected time 2 o'clock and save.
6. Sync - go to google - WOW! It is there.

So please fix that problem!

Hello,

The "Sync with Google Cal" icon will bring events on Google Cal to Doit.im, not make tasks on Doit.im shown on Google Cal. http://enblog.doit.im/post/44054934078/two-way-sync-between-doit-im-and-google-calendar

Sync from Doit.im to Google Cal is automaic. If you want o see tasks on Google Cal immediatly, you may refresh the both pages (Doit.im and Google Cal) to have a try.

In addition, here, you said, " Do not select "Deadline" because the endtime is by definition +1 hour!
(So when I select 1 o'clock as start time, the application sets automatically the deadline to 2 o'clock.)" I am not quite undstand it. Do you mean that you set 1 o'clock to start time but it turns 2 o'clock to deadline after you save it? If conveient, could you please give us some screenshots that relate to it?

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Ok,

If you have created a task with start and end time.

e.g.
Start : 1 am
End: 2 am
Save
Go to google, OK. FINE! Task is shown in g Cal.

Go to doit.im:
Start: Change to 2 am
End: Change nothing, because automatically the endtime will increased by 1 hours! (That can bye adjusted in the preferences) So the endtime is automatically set to 3 am!
Important: Do not select with the mouse the endtime field (because you usally not need that, because it is set automatically and is also shown as 3 am.).
Click SAVE.
Go to google! --- SHIT --- Nothing changed.

So in that case, you have to go to doitim. And trigger the action with your mouse on that field but do not need to change that time. Only select that field and do not change anyting. Just click after that save!
Google: Ok, changed!

This is a bug!

Hello,

I feel so sorry that I am a little confused about this issue. :(

Q1: End: Change nothing, because automatically the endtime will increased by 1 hours! (That can bye adjusted in the preferences) So the endtime is automatically set to 3 am!

A: In the web app, it is not supported. That is to say, when you add another 1 hour to the start time of a task, there is no possibility that the deadline will also be increased by 1 hour automatically. Could you please let me know on which platform you can do that?

Q2: That can be adjusted in the preferences

A: We do not have such a setting as you described in the Preferences. Where did you see it? Could you please take a screenshot of it?

Q3: Go to google! --- SHIT --- Nothing changed.

A: Do both start time and deadline have no changes on Google Cal or just deadline only?

We apology for the inconvenience that caused to you.

Lets try to explain more in detail.

Create Task: Doesnt matter, pls add a task with start e.g. 30.08.2013 and end time 30.08.2013, uncheck "all day event" and select e.g. 1 am. Automatically the deadline will increase +1 hours to 2 am. Click "save".
Google: So now look at google cal. Fine. Task is published!

Change task date: Open task, change date of start to 01.09.2013. See @deadline, the field automatically filled out with the changed date 01.09.2013 and time +1 hour. Click "save".
Google: refresh, nothing changed! The old date and time is further set in google cal!

OR do this:
Create task: Set name, set start date, uncheck all day, set time.
Attention: now open deadline, overtake all automatically selected date and time, and click just OK!
See google: No entry!
Open task: open deadline, click in the datepicker the DATE and just now click ok and SAVE.
Google: ENTRY there!

Q1: We do not have such a setting as you described in the Preferences. Where did you see it? Could you please take a screenshot of it?
A1: Youre right, sry nothing similar there! Increasing +1 hour must be default!
