MMM-calendarExt3 filter agendas

[sdetweil]

@redux703 ext3 has a filter capability
see the readme

[BKeyport]

@redux703 Assuming each person has a separatee calendar, there’s the “calendarset” keyword.

If not https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-CalendarExt3?tab=readme-ov-file#filtering

Very powerful. Once you have a base idea, we’ll help write the filters if you can’t get it…

@BKeyport
Yeah the calendarSet: (‘’) worked so far. But for some reason it gives two strange errors:
1, it is now (2025-08-01), and the month calendar shows 2025-09-01, and the week calender is still right.
2, for some reason, there are some dates that get mixed up. For example: someones birthday that is in December, now shows on July, while the same day. The month is different.

@redux703
if you show the default calendar do these date issues appear there?

[redux703]

@sdetweil
Yep it still shows there.
While in the source agenda (google calendar on the phone etc) it is still correct. It also seems only to happen with “jarig” in the title. But some are also correct

[sdetweil]

@redux703 ok, can you provide an event entry from the ical data?

this part of the default cal has just been rewritten
we need to open an issue on the MagicMirror github page

[redux703]

@sdetweil
How can i do that?

[sdetweil]

@redux703

to get the cal in text do

curl -sL your-cal-url > somefile.txt

the cal is just a text file
edit with genie, nano, whatever you are comfortable with

find the event entry THAT
BEGIN:VEVENT
…
…
END:VEVENT

dont delete any lines, but you can xxx out whatever
dont change the uid line

@sdetweil hey the error was probably comming from the agenda it self… it was put in the samsung agenda app, which would add it to the hotmail calemdar that would sync with google agenda.

The only problem i now still have is the calendarSet.
It still doesnt filter out the calendars i dont want…

[sdetweil]

@redux703 calendarSet should only pick the different default calendar (s)

the filter function allows you to check different event characteristics, title, date…
