Been wanting for a tool like this for a while now. Illustrated instructions are here. Not sure why the URL isn't publicized more.

I have never posted here. I love this thing. If repeat could work (I have no idea if it's possible) I could die happy. Thank you.

If you use Google calendar and Thunderbird, this is a must have.

It's too bad Google calendar doesn't support tasks. That would have been handy.

My only complaint is the lag time. I wish this plug in did a look ahead cache to help speed up the calendar.

This extension helps me to have my calendar sync across my desktop, Internet. I use it with "Automatic Export" to keep in sync with my iPod, too. Very cool. Thank you for creating it!

This took time and required patience, but oh man, the end result was worthwhile. This plugin (add-on) rocks. It IS bidirectional, and it does work.

This is historic, I've never been able to get a web calendar to display locally before, and now I'm looking at not one, but THREE calendars (two public, plus one private)

This is great but what about public calendars it would be nice to be able to add the public calendars I subscribe to into lightning as well.

Wow, this thing really works! You see the effects on google calendar right away!

One thing I hope is added is a way to control SMSing from the extension. Seems like you can only do it through google, but if you wanted to make an event which you want text message reminders, you can't really...

Great otherwise!

Awesome plug-in. What's interesting though is that a project has sprung up to provide funding for the off-line synchronization feater: http://www.cofundos.org/project.php?id=6

Since the plug-in seems to be in active development for this, maybe the developer should go pick-up the bounty or something.

Got my Blackberry and Thunderbird/Lightning install syncing their calendars :) So very pleased so far.

Just a few glitches with duplications but I think that is me gCalSync (app to sync BB to google) not using settings right.

if they had an option of 9.5 I would give that. it would be great if existing google calendars where able to be converted either automatically or manually to full read/write with this extension.

This was fixed in the latest nightlies and will be part of the next release.

All in all, this add-on is spectacular. It "provides" a bi-directional interface for Lightning to access GCal.

Apart from the mentioned issues, it doesn't seem to allow editing of a single instance of a repeating event. In fact, editing repeating events at all is a bit of a problem. Hopefully this will be taken care of in the next release...

Works nicely except for two glitches:

1. Inviting others to tasks/events is not allowed. Check-box that should enable this is grayed out and cannot be activated.

2. Incoming invites are added automatically to the calendar, regardless of whether you accept or decline.

Can't complain much, though -- this is a great add-on, and I'd be lost without it.

This is the most valuable Thunderbird extension I've installed so far! It makes both Thunderbird and Google Calendar so much more useful. My only gripes are with Lightening, and as that extensions gets stronger, this one will be more and more useful. Thanks!

I am unable to create repeating events in my Google calendar by using this extension, and I can not use the extension to delete repeating events that already in my Google calendar. Other than this moderately irritating issue the extension is a great addition to Sunbird.

Absolutely fantastic extension. Makes my life a lot easier and makes the calendar much more functional. It has the same caveats as the Lightening in general.
