I love this add-on. It is very simple to add calendars - basically just copy the XML address from the Google Calendar settings - and enter your username/password and youre up and running.

I now have all four of my google calendars in Thunderbird/Lightning and they all work like a charm.

I also have two shared calendars configured with Danish holidays and important soccer matches I absolutely must see :)

Now if someone could just make a "Provider for Exchange"... then I would no longer need to run Outlook or use the crappy outlook web access thingy.

I was looking for this possibility for months, browsing through hundreds of forum posts. Now it is finally possible to sync with google and thus make it possible to access the calendar from everywhere and having the comfort of a fat client at home.
Why "only" 9? I am still missing the offline functionality, but I was told this to be a bug of lightning.

I have been wanting something like this for a long time. I just tried using gcal***** intended to do the same as this, but Provider was much easier to set up and works flawlessly. I strongly recommend getting this if you are a fan of thunderbird and google calendar. I really like using google calendar, but now I think I will really take full advantage of it.

I registered just to post this. I've been waiting 2 years for this add-on and it works exactly as advertised. Thank you so much. I can finally use a desktop calendar client and still access GCal when away. Thank you!

This add-on is great, I have been waiting for something like this for a long time. However, it seems that Thunderbird doesn't save a local copy of the calendar or calendars every time it synchronizes, and so, if you are not connected to the Internet, this app is useless. Doesn't make much sense to assume that you are always going to be connected...
Anyway, thanks a whole lot for your work...

Exactly what I was looking for. A perfect compliment to Lightning! Thanks to the author and Google for making such useful tools. Karma!
