      The default module looks like this.

      url: ‘http://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics’,
      symbol: ‘calendar’,
      auth: {
      user: ‘username’,
      pass: ‘superstrongpassword’,
      method: ‘basic’

      However mine does not have the following.

      auth: {
      user: ‘username’,
      pass: ‘superstrongpassword’,
      method: ‘basic’

      I tried to ad these manually but that just corrupts the code.

      I am doing this in Windows 10 using Note++ to edit.

      your help is appreciated

        I have managed to get this sorted by importing the .ics file from Gmail that is public and does not require authentication.

        Next I have a problem with the .ics file since it only shows South African public holidays.

        Other holidays such as Russian holidays, Christian and Orthodox holidays show on the Google Calendar but are not imported in the .ics file.

            go to the calendarlabs.com site and find the right calendars, add entries for for each, they will merge together
            MagicMirror is not google, YOU have to do all the work
