    @sdetweil What I meant was, could it show how to put in two or more custom events, like this:

    customEvents: [
    			{keyword: 'Birthday', symbol: 'fa-birthday-cake', color: 'Gold'},
    			{keyword: 'Clinic', symbol: 'biohazard', color: 'Green'}],
    

    It might just be me getting confused, but because there are a few different elements and they are separated in different ways, I got mixed up trying to add multiple events. For example, I wasn’t sure if each event needed it’s own line, like:

    customEvents: [{keyword: 'Birthday', symbol: 'fa-birthday-cake', color: 'Gold'},
    customEvents: [{keyword: 'Clinic', symbol: 'biohazard', color: 'Green'}],
    

    or if I could put multiple keywords onto one line, like:

    customEvents: [{keyword: 'Birthday' 'Party', symbol: 'fa-birthday-cake', color: 'Gold'},
    

    It’s probably a bit daft, but I get confused more easily these days :dizzy_face: :)

    Please forgive me if I'm slow to reply, I'm currently experiencing memory issues, and sometimes forget that I've asked a question >.<

      @tippon ok, the words are new…, but once u learn them

      array mean this [ ]

      so, ANY , one or multiple must be inside the []

      then it says a combo of matching string/icon/color
      so that is an object , which is {}
      things, with key:value, key:value, key:value pattern
      { key:value, key:value, key:value }

      and that is what the example shows, except for the second one, but continue (more to follow) is , (comma)

      [ ---- begin
      first ,
      second,
      third
      ] ---- end

        @tippon one more tool to use

        when u are confused, use separate lines for the parts… the compiler will handle it

        [
        { …}
        ,
        { …}
        ,
        { …} (notice the lack of the ‘more to follow’ comma)

        ]

        u can combine them back together later with your editor… (if u want )

          @sdetweil Thank you for the advice :)

          Thank you too for being patient with me. I’m finding that I’m struggling more than usual recently when I try to learn something new, and you’ve been very helpful with your replies to my questions :)
