Cool!
If I understood your structure and approach correctly than this nice module could be used for any of recurring events, because the events are declared in the config.js definition of the module.
Unfortunately you have hard coded the header of the module

header.innerHTML = "NOUNISH REMINDERS";

Do you think it is possible to get this header configurable as well?
This would be really great!

Thanks a lot!
Warm regards,
Ralf

Hi Ralf,
Thank you for your feedback! I’m happy to let you know that I’ve implemented your suggestion to make the header configurable. The update is now complete and has been committed to the repository.
You were absolutely right - the module can be used for any recurring events, and having a hardcoded header limited its flexibility. Now you can customize the header text through the config.js file using the new header option:

{
    module: "MMM-NounishReminder",
    position: "top_center",
    config: {
        // Your events here...
        header: "MY CUSTOM HEADER" // Set this to whatever title you prefer!
    }
}

If you don’t specify a header value, it will default to “NOUNISH REMINDERS” for backward compatibility.
You can see all the changes in the commit here: https://github.com/XppaiCyberr/MMM-NounishReminder/commit/a6ef032f91a0921f98adcaa5d05c88991e9f7fcb
Thank you for the suggestion! It definitely makes the module more versatile for different use cases.
