MMM-CalendarExt3 multiple instance display

[sdetweil]

@jlward73 carousel like pages documents using the module name. but the actual mechanism is using a classmame to search the MagicMirror page.
edit: i am wrong… carousel uses ONLY the NAME of the modules

so one can create an additional set of class
names for a module, using the
classes property after the module
property
see the doc here
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html#example

MMM-Psges does the same thing
see the updated Readme on my fork, for the alternative approach

https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-pages

you can use the classes: property on one module and the module name for the rest

You can do it with only 1 instance by notification juggling. Tomorrow I’ll show you the example. (Of course you can swap 2 of instances also)

PS.
Sorry. MMM-Carousel2 Doesn’t emit any notification to use.

Sorry to pester you yet again, but after getting Journal just how I wanted, especially after you added the border around today (thank you), I’m trying to get multiple instances up on the screen. I’m starting by having only the basic calendar (with no listed position) and two instances of CX3 (current month and next month). I just want to get those on the same page. From there I want to feed it into Carousel, but I’m still trying to figure out how to “call” the right one. I’m assuming MMM-CalendarExt3{instanceID} where my two instances are labeled CURR_MONTH (monthIndex: 0) and NEXT_MONTH(monthIndex: 1).

@jlward73 see my fork of MMM-Pages,

only the readme. for an alternate way to use both modules
pages and carousel.

I was able to force it to work by re-naming the .js and .css files as seen in many posts. I also changed everything in the .css file from CX3 to CXN (for Next), and had to rename the popoverSupported and animationSupported constants at the beginning of the .js file. Maybe a little over the top, but it worked. I presume the smarter way would be to have a branch in github, but I haven’t started dabbling in that yet.
