MMM-MonthlyCalendar

ok, that is an add on calendar module

which appears to do all its operations in the browser side.

so on the running mm screen, press ctrl-shift-i ,
to open the developers window, and the select the console tab, and enter a unique part of the module name in the filter field, to show just the messages from that module , so month

I noticed that in the config file you included in a previous post that you do NOT have the default calendar module in there. My thoughts are that this MMM-MonthlyCalendar has some dependency on that the default module, and without it noted in the config you aren’t getting what you expect.

As a STARTING point I would recommending adding this to your config file. I’d suggest making sure THAT calendar is working. If it DOES show Holidays but your Google calendar is still NOT working, I would suggest removing the US Holiday link and replace it with your Google calendar link. Then try again.

Additionally, the config options for that module you are trying to use does NOT show url as a config option. That likely has to be called from the default module. A concern I am sure you are having is that you don’t want to SEE the default module. I HIGHLY recommend that you use it for the purposes of troubleshooting. Once you get to a point where the MMM-MonthlyCalendar starts working, simply remove or comment out the POSITION line for the default calendar module in your config.

Also, did you edit any of the files in the modules in any way? If so, you may want to remove them and install the module again.

{
			module: "calendar",
			header: "US Holidays",
			position: "top_left",
			config: {
				calendars: [
					{
						fetchInterval: 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,
						symbol: "calendar-check",
						url: "https://ics.calendarlabs.com/76/mm3137/US_Holidays.ics"
					}
				]
			}
		},

@ZiggidyZ you do not have to install again
each module installed (cloned) from GitHub includes the git source repository too.

so
git checkout filename
will restore filename to its repo contents

git status will tell you which files changed,and
git diff will show you the changes

Thank you!! Good to know! I am not very good with Linux, knowing only enough to really foul things up.
