      Hello,

      I have 4 calendars configured, under the default MM2 calendar module

      		{
      			module: 'calendar',
      			header: 'Calendar',
      			position: 'top_left',
      			config: {
      				maxTitleLength: 50,
      				maximumEntries: 20,
      				wrapEvents: true,
      				fadePoint: 0.8,
      				colored: true,
      				dateFormat: 'ddd MMM Do hh:mma',
      				dateEndFormat: 'ddd MMM Do hh:mma',
      				timeFormat: 'absolute',
      				useRelativeDates: true,
      				columns: false,
      				urgency: 0,
      				titleReplace: {
      					'USA: ': ''
      					},
      				calendars: [
      						{
      							symbol: 'trash-o',
      							color: '#CCCC00',
      							showLocation: false,
      							url: 'webcal://recollect.a.ssl.fastly.net/api/places/**masked**/events.en-US.ics'
      						},
      						{
      							symbol: 'calendar',
      							color: '#9CECC4',
      							showLocation: true,
      							url: 'webcal://p64-calendars.icloud.com/published/2/**masked**'
      						},
      						{
      							symbol: 'calendar-o',
      							color: '#A2D7FF',
      							showLocation: false,
      							url: 'webcal://ical.mac.com/ical/US32Holidays.ics'
      						},
      						{
      							symbol: '',
      							color: '#FF6600',
      							showLocation: false,
      							url: 'webcal://p42-calendars.icloud.com/published/2/**masked**--sxGM'
      						},
      					],
      				excludedEvents: []
      			}
      		},
      

      And when the calendars are refreshed it appears that whatever the last one in the config list is gets loaded an extra time for each one of the other calendars configured is this normal/expected behavior?

            @vvrangler the fix i proposed has been accepted and is part of the develop branch, if you would like to use it

            to get there

            if you did manual install

            cd ~/MagicMirror
            git checkout develop
            git pull
            

            restart MagicMirror as normal

            if you used my install script

            cd ~/MagicMirror
            git fetch origin develop:develop
            git checkout develop
            

            restart MagicMirror as normal

              @sdetweil Yes, the number of events look to be good, and I’m not really seeing any issues because of this, it’s just something that I noticed in the logs.

                @vvrangler yeh, it seems to luck out currently

                the top code starts the fetcher and a starts a timer for each calendar entry
                the fetcher ALSO starts a timer, so if its never called again, it still returns a refreshed list

                I changed it so the top code starts the fetcher for each calendar entry
                and let the fetcher handle its configured timer cycle

                  The change definitely fixed the issue and everything looks good now during the subsequent polls, thank you again.

                  I also have a couple of other calendar related issues that I’ve seen in the log, would it be best if I closed this topic and post a new one?
