	}
}

Many thanks to kirash for the inspiration with the monthly_calendar module, sdetweil and lavolp3 for the help in coding and CSS work. Without your help, this would just be a pipe dream.

This is a basic module, but I felt it was good enough for release to the public.

Please, if you have any suggestions for improvement, let me know, I’m learning Javascript and CSS as I write this, and I dream of much bigger things.

Localization is provided by moment.js and controlled by the master language of MagicMirror. Please file any errors with localizations as bugs with the moment.js team - https://github.com/moment/moment/

Versioning

0.1 Initial release, ~~English /~~ Sunday first only
0.2 Change code to improve functionality, allow for some localization - will not move start of week yet, but will change languages with system.
0.25 Temporary fix to allow module to refresh highlighted day of week - sometime between midnight and 1am, wasn’t doing any refresh at all in new MM configuration, didn’t realize it because I rebooted my system nightly for another tool I no longer use. Will adjust later to join in the midnight madness…
0.3 Now properly refreshes at midnight.
0.9 - Start of week now moves per moment.js. Note: at this point, module is almost everything I wanted. If I don’t get any bug reports that I can control, I’m going to bump it up to 1.0 and call it good.
0.95 - Fixed code for moving start of week, formula was backwards. ~~Suggestion was made to add to module, will be adding soon.~~
0.99 - Major rewrite by Volker Wegert (Danke sehr!) - Implements everything I want, and I even understand the wizard level code he wrote.
1.00 - Minor changes to code/css to standardize look.
1.10 - Added leading and trailing months when 1 month is selected per user request.
1.20 - Added weekend highlight
1.21 - Added ability to change current day highlight for weekends.

@BKeyport this is great! Thank you. Is there a way to change the colors?

@BKeyport I would like to know as well if the header color can be changed.

BKeyport

yes. It’s all in CSS. Take a look at the CSS file in the directory, and copy over to your custom.css

@BKeyport Great MMM, exactly what I was looking for! Can the first day of the week be changed to monday?

BKeyport

@PH1TCH It’s in the notes I haven’t figured out how to do this yet. Everything I’ve tried has failed due to API issues. I’m cracking on it when I can. My business takes priority, and we’ve been extended out due to this whole virus thing.

@BKeyport Okay, thanks for the update!

Hello, how can I change the color from grey (days+numbers) from grey to white?

BKeyport

@Werner1340 That’s actually a magicmirror default. I believe it’s getting it from here:

.normal {
  color: #999;
}

@BKeyport Hm, i found that code in the main.css and changed the color to #fff.
…still grey color in calendar. ;-). any more Ideas?
