        there was a change concerning symbols, see https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/pull/2949/files

        this should be backward compatible in normal setups but I don’t know how this is compatible with customEvents.

        Did you try something like

        ..., symbol: 'fa-solid fa-megaphone' ... or

        ..., symbol: 'fas fa-fw fa-megaphone' ... ?

          @karsten13 but he should not have to use the fa- prefix on megaphone, cause its in the setting

            @JDIBBY I changed one of my test cal setups to use custom events, copying your data but changing the trigger text

                    calendars: [
                    {
                      url: "http://localhost:8090/modules/default/calendar/woot.ics",
                      symbol: "calendar",
                      color: "#efefef",
                      name: "Rags Calendar",
            
                    }
                    ],
                      customEvents: [
                        { keyword: 'Weekly', symbol: 'file-signature' },
                        { keyword: 'Every', symbol: 'champagne-glasses' },
                      ],
            

            and see this

              @sdetweil looks great - that’s the way I’d like to have it. :grinning_face:
              So you didn’t specify a symbol class for the customEvents at all? I have had no success with this so far…

                @kai no, exactly as I posted. are you sure those are the phrases in your calendar subject?

                I had a problem once before, and had Two spaces between words in the calendar event, and only one in the events stucture…

                  I’ve been having the same problem. In mine the fas fa-fw fa- prefix was missing, so I changed my config to this:

                  customEvents: [
                      {keyword: "Games", symbol: "dice fas fa-fw fa-dice"},
                      {keyword: "Rugby", symbol: "running fas fa-fw fa-running"},
                      {keyword: "Guitar", symbol: "guitar fas fa-fw fa-guitar"}
                  ],
                  

                  I duplicated the “dice” at the start so it keeps working when the bug is fixed. And the icons appear now.

                      @sdetweil I’ve not delved far into the code but it looks to me like the symbolsForEvent function in calendar.js is getting the default symbol with the default class, but then overwriting that default with the symbol from customerEvents - but not applying the default class to it.

                      This might be fixed with applying this.getCalendarPropertyAsArray to ev.symbol in the line symbols[0] = ev.symbol;.

                      I’d do a PR myself but I have nowhere near enough experience tinkering with MagicMirror to be pushing code to a default module :). But I think that’s where the problem is, and my solution will work around that issue crudely for the moment.
