    Hi Guys,

    Just installed a brand new MM instance and downloaded the latest MMM-CalendarExt3 but for some reason i get no entries from my google calendars…

    I get entries if i setup MMM-CalendarExt2 or the default calendar but not on MMM-CalendarExt3…

    Here is my Config

    {
      module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
      position: "bottom_center",
      config: {
        mode: "month",
        instanceId: "basicCalendar",
        locale: 'en-UK',
    	fontSize: '25px',
    	refreshInterval: 10000,
        maxEventLines: 5,
        firstDayOfWeek: 1,
        calendarSet: ["KD", "Tini"],
    		}
    	},
    	{
      module: "calendar",
      config: {
        broadcastPastEvents: true, 
        calendars: [
    	{
    			name: "KD",
    			className: "KD",
    			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/basic.ics",
    			color: "green"
    		},
    		{
    			name: "Tini",
    			className: "tini",
    			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/basic.ics",
    			color: "pink"
    		},
    	]
    	}
          },

      @KD if you use the calendar url in a browser, it should download a file, just text. you an edit that to see if there are events

        @sdetweil Hi there - i can download the file by putting the URL in the browser and open it in Outlook and see the events…

        Also, I use both URL’s in another 2 magic mirrors I have in the house… I’m confident it’s not the URL’s

          @KD ok, this looks like the bug I introduced in 2.20. fixed in 2.21, October 1

          broadcastPastEvents loads up the past events then the new, and the bug cuts off after the 1st maximumEntries

          so u have to increase maximum entries

            @sdetweil Thanks Sam - do you mean “maxEventLines”?
            Screenshot 2022-09-10 193724.png

            If yes I have set them up to 10 now and still nothing

              module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
              position: "bottom_center",
              config: {

            	fontSize: '25px',
            	refreshInterval: 10000,
                maxEventLines: 10,
                firstDayOfWeek: 1,
                calendarSet: ["KD", "Tini"],

              @KD no in the base calendar module. default
              maximumEntries defaults to 10,
              that is where you have broadcastPastEvents:true

                  @KD for the short term add

                  position: “top_left”,

                  to the calendar module location

                  let’s make sure it is working

                      @KD u have to be I the MagicMirror folder for the git checkout to work

                      you should not have changed that file anyhow

                      all config is done thru config.js

                      can u show the output where u start mm?

                      either npm start
                      or if you use pm2, then

                      pm2 logs --lines=50

                      calendarext3, gets it’s info from the default calendar. so if it has problems, then u get nothing
