Calendar modification

@KirAsh4 I keep my calendar in month mode because it makes sure that events don’t delete halfway through a day and when in month mode it prevents a glitch from occurring. In that glitch on the mirror itself events will be assigned random times, in my case the newest event would be assigned 4:00 am and then each event after that would increase by the hour to 5:00 and so on. There is also an occurrence that events will randomly delete themselves from the actual mirror, not the online calendar, so putting this in month mode will cause them to remove themselves, or stop displaying, on the mirror at 12:00 o’clock midnight the day that they were assigned. It is certainly not necessary but I would do it because it take just a few seconds.

To anyone wondering how to switch the calendar to month mode here is a few images.
Main calendar:

https://gyazo.com/81e42213091d63b75e4bb9798e01d4acPlease note that it might not work the first time in that case either try again and reload the page or try again and go to settings and save the calendar.

That’s something that is outside of the scope of MM itself. They don’t have anything to do with the MM calendar module itself. When you said to keep the calendar in monthly mode, my first reaction was, ‘Uh, the calendar doesn’t have a monthly view’, hence my request for clarification.
It’s helpful to others who are using that specific service to host a calendar, and trying to incorporate it into MM, but you needed to specify what you were referring to.
Thanks for the clarification.

Wow, Thanks Guys.
I took a couple days of from the project and hit the lake, so sorry for the slow replies.
@MichMIch - That cured it, I had the maximunNumberOfDays Line to far down.
I have a couple other questions but I won’t clutter up the calendar Module board with them.

Anyone had any luck with Outlook 365 or Iphone calendars?

iphone calendar is not a big problem.
U must go to iCloud Calendar and make the calendar of your choice usable for public access.
After that copy the link of your public calendar and insert this link into the config.js in your calendar module.restart your magicmirror

I went to the web calendar on my computer (not on a smartphone or tablet!), went to settings (gear symbol top right) and clicked on options. The you see Publish Calendar and you are able to create the ics link.
