    I’ve tried to add shared Google calendars, but it just doesn’t show any of the events. I assume it has to do with the credentials. Here’s a copy of my config file for that section. Note that the calendar is not publicly visible and it has to stay that way. Also, I have tried all three options for the “method” section and none seems to make a difference.

    Here’s the config file I’m using:

     */
    
    var config = {
    	address: "localhost", // Address to listen on, can be:
    	                      // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
    	                      // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
    	                      // - "", "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
    	                      // Default, when address config is left out, is "localhost"
    	port: 8080,
    	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
    	                                                       // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
    	                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
    	                                                       // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
    	                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],
    
    	language: "en",
    	timeFormat: 12,
    	units: "imperial",
            colored: true,
    	// serverOnly:  true/false/"local" ,
    			     // local for armv6l processors, default 
    			     //   starts serveronly and then starts chrome browser
    			     // false, default for all  NON-armv6l devices
    			     // true, force serveronly mode, because you want to.. no UI on this device

      @cyrus u need the public or secret url link of the calendar

      this is not it, this is the embed link

      url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=OURDOMAIN.com_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX%40group.calendar.google.com"
      

      on the calendar.google.com site, select the calendar lower left, 3 dots,
      select settings
      select integrate calendar

      select either the public address in iCal format, or the secret address in iCal format
