    Our organization wants to link calendar invites (ics files) to a phrase or button on an event webpage. When a user visits an event webpage, they see a phrase or button and click it to add it to their personal calendar. When I try to upload the Outlook calender invite to a folder in the DNN file manager, I receive an error that the ics file is not supported. Is there another way to accomplish this or do I need to enable something in our DNN admin site?

      At the foot of the Security -> More -> MORE SECURITY SETTINGS page there is a comma-separated list of Allowable File Extensions into which you can add ics as a file type. You might need to clear cache and restart the server application for the new setting to be picked up.
