      • Export and published sites
        • Export → iCal and Export → CSV in the macro's "…" overflow menu do nothing when clicked
        • On a published Capable Site, an Event macro shows UTC times rather than the visitor's local times
        • On a newly installed site the Subscribe panel says subscriptions "aren't available for this site yet
      • Everything else
        • Switched all the event types off, but the calendar still shows everything
        • Turned off "Confluence Date macros", but dates inside action items still appear
        • Several dates in one paragraph (or one table row) turned into a single event instead of several
        • Date chip on a line by itself never appears on any calendar
        • Colleague in another country sees the event at a different time or on a different day
        • Event macro pill shows a time that looks shifted by the timezone offset (for example 14:00 rendering
        • Set a Base Timezone on a calendar and nothing changed
        • Repeating meeting in my subscribed calendar app only appears once
        • Edited an event but my phone's calendar has not updated
        • Subscribed calendar has not changed for days even though the calendar is active
        • Person removed from the space could still see the calendar feed for a while
        • Someone who should not have it has my feed URL
        • Turned off the "Calendar subscriptions" feature but existing links still work
        • "Dates" column and the Calendar panel badge in Capable Search show fewer dates than the page has
      • Something is missing or looks wrong
        • Subscribed calendar app is missing events I can see in Confluence
        • Subscribe button is missing from a calendar
        • Signed-out visitor sees a calendar that looks complete but is missing events
        • Calendar byline does not appear on a page that clearly has dates (Suite)
        • Very date-heavy page does not turn up in a date search, or is missing dates from the search index
        • Indexing tab is missing from settings in the standalone Capable Calendar app
      • Permissions and access
        • Revoked link cannot be un-revoked
        • Saved calendar's page sources are all off and cannot be turned on
        • Readers cannot change the view inside the macro
        • Cannot create or edit events in a shared calendar
        • Unlicensed or signed-out visitor lands on the Calendar page and sees a notice instead of the product

Feed freshness

Creating a subscription pre-builds the feed, and every event create, edit, move or delete schedules a refresh 60 seconds later off the request path, so a burst of edits produces roughly one rebuild.
