      Thanks, I was quite please with the feel.

      Yes I was concerned it was a bit cluttered but on a 29" monitor the sizing looks good, and the margins / padding seem pretty good. As its a Christmas gift for the wife and she has not seen it, I know that she will have input and want changes after Christmas. For now I have a functional board that does what I intended, and I am much better versed in making changes in css as well as installation and configuration of the modules. I imagine once she gets involved it will look very different the end of January.

        @Wedee wow this looks great! How did you add in the dates to remember as well as the chores, sticky notes, and grocery list?

          Dates to Remember is a shared google calendar. Running 4 shared calendars one each for wife, kid and me, and then the Dates to remember calendar.

          The sticky notes, chores, grocery list are shared Wunderlist lists.

          With the Wunderlist apps on our phones we can add or checkoff items. Kid wants more Ramen Noodles he can add to the grocery list Etc.

            @Wedee that’s awesome, I have to look into wunderlist. Is it possible to add the dates to remember calendar into the default us holidays calendar so that special dates show up in the same module?

              Not sure if the generic US Holiday calendar can be added to, but you could create a new Dates to remember calendar and add the US holidays into it.

              Wunderlist is pretty easy to use both the actual app, and adding in the module. Just be sure that you name your shared lists differently than the default ones… Grocery’s for example gets created on everybody’s account at setup… You need to add things to the shared list if you want it to show up.

                This is a great idea and I am trying to duplicate it but I’m stuck at the Wunderlist.
                Is there a tutorial or walk through on requesting the API?
                I am new to all of this and been holding my own for the most part (noob).
                Thanks!

                  To get to the API spot use the shortcuts “Here” located in the config section…

                  As to what you want to fill in use this topic for assistance…

                    @Wedee Thanks!
                    I can not find where the access token and client ID should go in the config.js file.
                    Any tips or pointers on where to put this information?

                    modules: [
                        {
                            module: 'MMM-Wunderlist',
                            position: 'top_right',  // This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
                            header: 'Wunderlist', // This is optional
                            config: {
                                // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
                            }
                        }
                    ]

                      It is added just below the config: {

                      Like this…

                      {
                      	module: 'MMM-Wunderlist',
                              position: 'top_right',  // This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
                              header: 'XXX', // This is optional
                              config: {
                                  accessToken: 'xxxxxxx',
                      	    clientID: 'xxxxxxx',
                      	    lists: ["XXXX"],
                      	    fade: false,
                      	    interval: "120"
                      		      }
                      },

                            Sorry just got back from a work trip to Europe. Yes the Family loves the board. Already have made several improvements, and have several more ideas we want to try. I had bought an additional Raspberry Pi to play with and successfully set up Alexa, so I think that is the next major add to the info board.

                            After telling a few at work about the idea two more guys have set up a similar board at their place, and their families love it as well.

                              It would be great if you could share your css.
                              Your calendar looks great but i am absolutely css noob.
