For anyone else similarly struggling: click the down arrow next to "Other calendars" in the sidebar, then select Add by URL.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] WMUK Calendar Syncing
Harry - Many thanks for this! I will admit that I hadn't noticed it wasn't working, but I'm very impressed at the replacement and the work you've done. Many thanks once again!
