      @mercuryskies please cut paste your calendar config. Change some of the coded numbers, but don’t change anything else. Use the code block to mark it

      Select all, hit the </>

            @mercuryskies right, cause the 1st one ends with ,} which closes the lists of calendars, and then next one has a } too…

            the 1st one url doesn’t work for some reason, (in browser)

            so the test is to take each url, and put it into a browser on the pi, it should download the ics file… if not, you have to fix THAT…
            the pi does not logon as you… so it might work on windows

              so both of the google calendar links do not work in my pi browser, it just says site not available.
              if i paste the last default webcal address it just takes me to a google search result.

                  the standard google calendar url works fine. it takes me to my calendar and i can see everything in my browser.
                  but when i try my private and public urs in the browser i get the site can not be reached.
                  i am so confused

                    @mercuryskies i was confused as well, then started overtyping the url to find the problem… something in the word ‘calendar’ not right… type it over from the keyboard, not just cut/paste

                      @sdetweil I’m sorry to sound dumb but can you elaborate . Over typing ? Where are you putting the corrected url .

                        @mercuryskies paste the url of a calendar entry into the browser, then using the keyboard, type over each character (overtype) one by one, and test hitting enter til the thing works.

                        that is what I had to do… then, when it works, copy/paste THAT url back into the calendar entry in config.js
