@gr1dl0ck i will NOT give u the answer. cause u will be back for another.

my job as moderator here is to teach u and direct you to info.

the doc is the online readme referenced in the README.md in the calendar module folder
https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/tree/master/modules/default/calendar

this is the same doc file name for everything

and sometimes i dont look.up the exact config term, cause i expect you to do.it

@sdetweil

mine doesn’t even display the default date as per this doc, I would copy a picture but it has a bunch of private appointments in there.

Default value: MMM Do (e.g. Jan 18th)

mine displays (for example)

'appointment 03/10/2021

Try this…

{
		module: "calendar",
		header: "AR Holidays",
		position: "top_left",
		config: {
			fade : false,
			timeFormat : "absolute",
	                fullDayEventDateFormat : "DD-MM-YYYY",		
			calendars: [						
				{
				        symbol: "calendar-check",
					    url: "https://calendar.google.com/sic.ics",
						auth: {
							user: '',
							pass: '',
							method: 'basic'
						      }
				}						
					
					
					
			]
		}
	},

@mrega you were close

fade : false,
timeFormat : "absolute",
dateFormat : "DD MMM",

that fixed it thank you !

can you explain what the follow is 'Fade: false/ true ’ what does this refer to or alter?

and what does the “absolute” refer back too ?

@sdetweil along with the ‘block everyone who disagrees with me’ Wikipedia admins. I have come across people on linux forums who act like yourself over the past 25 years and usually, it implies someone doesn’t actually know the answer and simply dragging their feet/wasting everyones time because of it. I guess at least one saving grace is that there aren’t any getting people to compile libraries with debug symbols for ‘helpful’ people to dither over and never reply to.

It’s tiring. If you don’t want to actually provide any assistance then why are you even replying? You could have helped and also made others like myself feel that the MM community is welcoming. On first impressions, I have seen this and it thought “you know what, why bother even looking here for assistance if the reps are going to be like this”.

@pigeonshouse thank you for your criticism. sadly the user didn’t learn how to take care of his own system, but is dependent on others to tell him what to type/copy paste.

I am a volunteer, here because I like to be. I am NOT a copy/paster type. I will make you work, and learn in the process.

I just wrote the Question and before sending i found the “solution”.

Today is the 29th August 2021
Calendar now shows “29. August 2021” (“LL”)
I just want to have “29. August”. Thats just

dateFormat: 'D.MMMM',

I`ll keep it here for others if they search for it too. Did´nt found that in the docu somehow.
