      A buddy of mine had a request and we are wondering if there’s a way to do this

      Currently, the calendar module has an entry in the config which displays a text heading (default “Calendar”) above the actual events and dates.

      His mirror is set up to pull 5 different calendars but has color coding to indicate whos calendar is whos, an example being his wife is pink, his is blue etc.
      He wanted to add somewhat of a “legend” under the heading of the calendar with each persons name and color of their calendar entries, that way you would know which color you are and which events belong to you.

      Is that possible to do? I would assume it would require an entry in the config.js file but I don’t know if that would do anything as the calendar.js file doesn’t have anything to indicate colors of the value. I don’t think anything in the custom.css file would help either.

      Any ideas?

        {
          module: "calendar",
          position: "top_right",
          header: "Johns Stuff",
          config: {
            ...
          }
        },
        {
          module: "calendar",
          position: "top_right",
          header: "Janes Stuff",
          config: {
            ...
          }
        },
        

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          @strawberry-3.141 this is what I initially proposed as well but wouldn’t that just list each calendar separately?

          He wanted to combine all calendars into one list of dates but have a custom heading instead of just the default “Calendar”

          Like in your example he wants to see
          Janes_Stuff in pink
          Johns_Stuff in blue,
          Then both Jane and John’s calendar entries combined as one calendar below

              couldn’t you use different font awesome symbols when you put the calendar in the config

                @onetwankyfive I could but the idea is having some sort of legend as well. So you have the color coded symbols next to the events in the list but there is no way to tell who’s color is who’s (and with a bunch of really little kids, color is important)

                  @ooom416354 if all names will be listed over ONE combined calendar you could just add it as static text.

                    Yep exactly, that would be the idea. Where would that static text be added, would it be in the config.js or would I have to create something for the custom.css?

                      @ooom416354 you could use the helloworld module for it

                        @strawberry-3.141 so add the hello world module under the clock in the config.js and code it up to add the color coded “legend”, right?
