Setting 2 default calendar modules; but weird represent

[sdetweil]

@1a2a3a I think you have the wrong format requested

Do MMM

from the moment format specs page
https://momentjscom.readthedocs.io/en/latest/moment/04-displaying/01-format/

Day of Month	D	1 2 ... 30 31
Do	1st 2nd ... 30th 31st
DD	01 02 ... 30 31

Do has th, nd,st…

D has just the number

DD has 2 digit number 0 prefixed

@1a2a3a one other minor forum thing…
alwasy warp config stuff in code block

paste text in editor
spare line above/below
select all the text you pasted
hit the </> button to wrap in code block… I added that for you this time

@sdetweil nothing works actually. so you see my code.
the last paragraph on the default cal module where holiday ics is … no matter what format i choose for the date format, it will be stuck at Dec 25th. all i wanted is 25th Dec or 25 Dec.

@1a2a3a ok, got it…

the code is using this attribute

 'fullDayEventDateFormat'
  fulldayEventDateFormat: "Do. MMM",

you are suppling the second one

case matters, every character

so your config entry is ignored as it didn’t match, so it used the default

@sdetweil yes yes yes! thank you so much! spent my entire day on this :(

@1a2a3a one of my modules ‘may’ help… doesn’t work for every module

see https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Config

it provides a form for you to fill out… no more config editing…

some modules do tricky things… EXT3/Agenda

but they can be augmented with a proper config definition and work perfectly.
I ship the schemas for modules that won’t be updated as a way to help older modules…

@sdetweil I actually installed this but couldn’t get it to work. When I tried launching, the page looks gibberish to me and it doesn’t generate a new config file. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong.

@1a2a3a can u send me some screen shots? either direct or to my mail , same userid at gmail…

and the schema3.json file from the module folder
