calendar *.ics file from local path

How should that look like?
I tried it with my webserver on qnap nas. I copied the ics files into the web root folder and tried to access them as following
https://serverip:8081/birthdays.ics
but that didn’t work either.
I couldn’t find a solution to access my owncloud calendars directly, so I have to extract them to a ics file and try to host them as that. -
That should just work. Maybe there is an other issue with your calendar file or network.
-
Well, I can access them with firefox and it shows me to open or download them.
But it won’t work with mm2. -

Yes, I got it working after a bit of experimenting. It wouldn’t read the ics file from other places like /MagicMirror which I assumed to be the root of the webserver.I created a new directory in /MagicMirror/modules, named birthdays, and placed by birthdays.ics file in there.
Then in my config I added a 2nd calendar:
{ symbol: 'birthday-cake', url: 'webcal://localhost:8080/modules/birthdays/birthdays.ics' }

Thank you shockwave.
This works like a charm.

How can I set the topic to solved?

I did it for you. For future reference, you will have to set the topic as a question first, then you can change it later to solved. On the bottom right of the posts, there are three dots in a vertical line. Click on that to change the topic to a question (which will mark it
'Unsolved'
), then when you’re ready to change it, click on the three dots again and you’ll have an option to set it to'Solved'
.
