[Users] No password prompt in vCalendar plugin

[APM]

Hello Jeremy,


a couple of days before I asked for the vCalendar plugin as well.


I'm not sure about such protocols as Ical, webcal, caldav etc.


The description of the plugin mentioned, that I can use "WebCal-Feeds"

and "Subscribing to public calendars".


Maybe the plugin can't handle other protocols.


I found https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webcal, but is not very helpful....

Where do you see the support for passwords, please?


Thank you!


Kind regards


Piet
