@sdetweil
No, i took your example after getting no output of mine.
So the only changes are in the config regarding the currentMonthOnly and the max Entries.
Hmmm :confused_face:

[sdetweil]

@MyMirror can u edit the birthdaylist/data/bdl.csv

[sdetweil]

@MyMirror the sample file is in

DD/MM/YYYY format

[MyMirror]

@sdetweil

Yes, of course.
What should i try?
Add this:
15/01/1987,suzie
12/05/1951, Sam

[sdetweil]

@MyMirror that second line shouldbe there already, do this

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/birthdaylist
git checkout data/bdl.csv

then look at the file again

it should start like mine
suzie on the second line

[MyMirror]

@sdetweil

my bdl.csv:

my output:

4 lines

[MyMirror]

@sdetweil

is a blank needed before “Suzie”?

[sdetweil]

@MyMirror correct

the bd on Dec 19th is in the past, and u have

dimmEntries: false

so, past BD’s are not dispplayed

@MyMirror said in birthdaylist:

is a blank needed before “Suzie”?

no, I trim off blanks… allow for sloppy editing/pasting

all entries have to have the same date format

[sdetweil]

@MyMirror the csv file format is

the header row,

birth  ,  name

and then
rows for each person

birthday , name

the birthday format can be in whatever format you like
MM/DD/YYYY
DD/MM/YYYY
YYYY/DD/MM
YYYY/MM/DD

using whatever separator you choose

the layout and separator have to be the same for all birthday rows
