Bug Description

Hi,

I try to add a caldav calendar

calendars -> Add -> From Web -> https://posteo.de:8443/calendars/max.mustermann/default/

and I hit enter but the "add" button in the right upper corner remains grayed out.

Kind regards

I have a similar problem with Ubuntu 17.10. After pasting my ICS URL (from Zimbra), the Add button stays grayed out. If I use the read-only URL (offered by Zimbra, with an .html at the end) it adds the calendar but no event is shown. And when clinking at the calendar it opens it at my browser. Besides this it keeps crashing without warning in some random situations.

Still can't add a caldav calendar.
Wonder why the importance is low, given that it makes the appliation unusable for many of us.

This is really sad. This app is completely broken and nobody cares.

This is supposed to be a Long Time *Support* release and the problem was not fixed, even though in was known in the alpha stage.
