How to Integrate JetEngine Calendar (Advanced date field) to 'Add to Calendar' Buttons (Google & Apple)

The Problem: Why Calendar Links Are a Headache with JetEngine

Most WordPress event plugins or manual solutions fail when you need:
  • Recurring events (e.g., weekly meetings) with proper end dates.
  • Hybrid events (physical + Zoom) with dynamic location fields.
  • Time zone support without messy workarounds.
  • "Add to Calendar" buttons that work for both Google and Apple users.
Worse, plugins often: ❌ Bloat your site with unnecessary features. ❌ Break when JetEngine’s custom meta fields are involved. ❌ Ignore all-day events or time formatting issues. Without a clean solution, users manually copy-paste event details—leading to errors and missed attendees.
