G?day guys,



Just wondering if its possible to sync contacts/calendar entries with Thunderbird? I noticed CalDav and CardDav were part of the 5.1 release but how to use that I don?t know?


Could anyone please send me in the right direction?


Cheers in advance.

Hello,

you need latest Kronolith/Turba additionally to the Horde Base.
Furthermore the Lightning PlugIn for Thunderbird and with this you can
create a remote CalDAV calender. The URL to provide is listed at
calendar->My Calendar->edit (small pencil icon)->subscription
Then you have to provide your login credentials and voila, it works.
One thing to notice is that Lightning has problems to track editing of
events, it simply doesn't update it's view, on restart it works :-(

Regards

Andreas

you need configure thunderbird lightning to the caldav urls of your
horde setup also auth with your configured auth user schema, very easy

like

but for sure with other urls

As others said: Lightnig works nice here.

Because of contacts:

A first short try here with CardDav and the SOGo Connector plugin
failed here. If I am right at the moment we have no other addon/plugin
for thunderbird to sync via CardDav? (sorry: OT)

I am very interested if anyone got Horde 5.1 syncing contacts with Thunderbid.

meanwhile you could use syncml with funambol plugin for abook,
but sogo normally should work, try search their wiki etc

perhaps try
