Can't get mmm-calendarext3 - customEvents to display the changed events, or more than 9 days.

sdetweil

@cheminge customevents in the default calendar is done at the UI , long after the events are broadcast

in Ext3 there it the eventtransformer () function to allow you to
manipulate the events before they appear

if you look at this person’s Ext3 config here
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/post/122721
you will see an example of that function in the Ext3 config

cheminge

Thank you!!!

I now have the color and symbol working!!!

now, onto issue number 2. how do I get it to show more of the events?

sdetweil

@cheminge did you put on the fix as I asked before… this is not an EXT3 fix, its a base MM fix

see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/post/122703

Ok,

After some deep diving I realized I have broadcastPastEvents: true, in the wrong location in my config file.

I moved it down to be inside the “config” location and it now works!

Do I need to move the other items inside of the “config” location?

modules: [
	{module: "calendar",
			fade: false,
                        flipDateHeaderTitle: true,
                        hideDuplicates: true,
                        coloredText: true,
                        coloredBackground: false,
                        coloredSymbol: true,
			pastDaysCount: 90,
			wrapEvents: true,
			updateOnFetch: true,
			colored: true,
			config: {
				broadcastPastEvents: true,
				calendars: [
					{
						name: "**CalendarName**",
						url: "https://**My Google Calendar Link**.ics",
						symbol: "person-military-to-person",
						className: "**ClassName**",
						beforeDays: 30,
						afterDays: 90,
						maximumEntries: 100,
						pastDaysCount: 40,
						color: "green",
						fetchInterval: 60000, //900000 is 15 minuets
					},

@cheminge yes

everything BEFORE config:{
belongs to Magicmirror, and the module will not see it

ONLY stuff inside config goes to the module

config:{
..... here
}

https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html#example

@cheminge did you get it working?

@sdetweil

Everything seems to be working, but I am having one issue.

I have repeating events, that are “All Day” events.

Then the week of the event I change the event on the google calendar to be for a specific time of day.

When I do this, I see both the repeating “All Day” and the Specific time events. (so double events on the same day) It also doesn’t read the new times that I have put into the google calendar.

I don’t even know where to start to look for a solution for this.

Attached is a screen shot of the calendar, and for example, on January 28, all 3 are duplicate entries.

@cheminge did you put on the fixes for calendar?
are you running MagicMirror version 2.30, many calendar fixes

if you are, i want the event that you modified
before and after dumped from your ics data

curl -sL the-cal-url >somefile.txt

edit , find the event

BEGIN:VEVENT
.
.
END:VEVENT

cheminge

Yes, I think I have 2.30 and many calendar fixes installed…

Here is they entry for one of the entries on the 1-28-25 (duplicate of the “Alyce” entry)
