<![CDATA[Highlight current day in calendar]]>Hello.
I use the MMM-MonthlyCalendar module and I try to highlight the current day in the calendar. The developer said that that should come from the default calendar, but unfortunately no further help.
Can someone point me in the right direction to have the background of the current day in the calendar colored in white?

.MMM-MonthlyCalendar .today {
  background-color: rgba(192, 192, 192, 0.2);
}

so, just add that to custom.css and change the color

I tried editing the alpha channel from “0.2” to “0,5” and all worked out.

Thank you very much for all the support and your patience since the beginning of my MM journey! :)

Is the screen contrast misadjusted?

You can edit the color in the dev tools top window
If you select that element you can enter the background color in the upper right window

The Dev tools on the mirror are exactly the same as on the windows laptop.

My time zone settings are correct, the displayed time is correct.
With the help of ChatGPT I tried al kind of things like adding classes to the module js file. but to no avail. I am currently on a fresh installed module and where your first tip got it working it is now not working at all. (Only works on my laptop on localhost:8080)

that is your custom.css overriding the module css.

unless the date is set wrong on the system.
the styles are done in the browser.

This is what I see when I check at my desktop browser.
Would it be any different on the raspberry?

now the newer bookworm built on pi4 or 5 probably won’t run on older pi3

That’s why I checked via my laptop’s chrome browser. But there is the background of today highlighted as expected.

Side question: If I replace my rb 3a+ with a rb 4. Can I get everything working as it is now by just changing the sd card?

or restart MagicMirror

A bit strange isn’t it?

I would have to look at the content to see if the classes were applied

see here how to look at the content

I checked the custom css and all lines are still present. Did I do something wrong? Or does it have to do something with the weekend days?
