When receiving descriptions via CalDAV, the text is truncated at 63 chars:

Funny: When editing in Vikunja, the complete text is transmitted via CalDAV. No truncation here.

Vikunja returns the whole description:

This seems to be a problem with the CalDAV client you're using.

Funny: When editing in Vikunja, the complete text is transmitted via CalDAV. No truncation here.

The Vikunja frontend does not use CalDAV to update tasks. It uses the API for that.

@mtettke123 commented on GitHub (Jul 13, 2022):

Oh, sorry for being unclear. If I read my text again it's really easier to misunderstand than to understand what I meant.
The problem occurs when sending texts via CalDAV to the system. When querying via CalDAV the full text is submitted.
So: app sending data to api: text appears truncated in the frontend. Editing there to a longer text and querying: long text in the app.

Maybe also an app problem, can't tell in the moment.

Can confirm it's working now. Thank you so much!

Just a small design point: Do you think it is possible to display line breaks in vikunja frontend as they are in the app? Or are these line breaks not transmitted via CalDAV?

They are transmitted, just not really rendered in the frontend. Try adding two breaks, that should show up as a new paragraph.
