Hi Antoni
Thanks for your answer. I am disapointed I will not be able to use Tasks Calculator for my Google Apps domain, at least for now.
Do you have an idea whether this is going to be possible sometime, and when ?
About the http://start.jakubiak.biz/ : is this Igoogle page associated with a Google Apps acount ?

Best regards

Hello Michel!

1. I coudn’t find private xml address for calednard in apps. I think, it might not work.
2. There is iGoogle page for each user, eg.: http://start.jakubiak.biz/

This gadget will not work without private.xml URL. This gadget has to be rewriten, to use google auth, and then it might be able to do that. Unfortunatelly it is quite complicated.

Best regards!

Hi Antoni,
I am using your tasks calulator with my gmail acount and I find it great.

In addition, I am now administering a Google apps domain.
I would like each user of this google apps domain to use the Tasks Calculator to report its activity.
I have tried to do this in two ways; but none of them worked:

1) Get the private xml address of the detailed agenda of each user and include the gadget as many times as necessary in my Igoogle page to obtain the calculation results.
However, It seems that it is not possible to share the details of an agenda with a non google acount (external to the google apps domain)

2) Include the Tasks Calculator in the Igoogle page of each user. But It seems that there is no Igoogle page for a google apps acount, or at least I did not find it.

Could you please help resolve this issue

@Antoni Jakubiak hey, that works! So it is probably my calendar’s problem – yes, my calendar is quite large… is that the problem? Btw I tried making my calendar public and it still didn’t work. Should I try waiting for longer for it to load or something?

@Anna I don’t know why it isn’t working for you.

Are you using a modern web browser? Is JavaScript enabled? Is
your calenar very very huge ?

Please try try this calendar URL: (it’s Warsaw Java User group feed)
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/7dmp09fjl82d57m3dgu4gj020g@group.calendar.google.com/public/basic

Please inform me.

@1hoog I agree with You. But now, I have to tag my “profit centers” using string keywords, for example:
PROJECT1 / working on foo
PROJECT2 / working on bar

Hey,

Great idea and thanks for this. It would be nice if google calendar will support tags/categories so you can easily filter on those a bit more solid variables.

@Sonja - You can add more than one TaskCalculator gadget to IGoogle.

Hi, this app is *almost* exactly what I need, thanks for developing it! Is there any way to make it work with multiple calendars?

I have about seven different calendars in gcal, to keep track of each job separately (plus sport, free time etc). When I use this app, it can only ever track one calendar at a time.

Thanks!
