      I know that there have been several different threads about this over the years, but I have been unable to find something that describes the current state of displaying recurring events correctly.

      The Issue:
      Some recurring events (those later in the day) end up being displayed incorrectly. A calendar item that was started on January 16th at 9pm (Thursday) will also display on January 17th at 9pm (Friday) and then repeat on Friday’s going forward.

      I have looked at several posts, including the following that recommended changing the node ics calendar version:
      https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/18388/default-calendar-module-not-showing-some-recurring-events

      Is this still the preferred method of fixing this, or have other fixes been discussed?

      Setup:
      I currently am running MagicMirror using a docker image ( thanks to khassel at https://khassel.gitlab.io/magicmirror/) on a Synology NAS so that I can host it on my network.

        @morangen the current MM release 2.30 , released Jan 1, 2025 solves the prior date issues with the calendar

        I am running the same container and the current release uses MM 2.30

        you could add a watchtower container and have it auto pull the ‘latest’ container update when released

          @sdetweil That is great to know. My docker container is setup to pull the latest, but it looks like my MM is still loading version 2.28.

          I’ll have to make sure it is actually updating and or pulling the latest version in.

          Thanks for your reply!

            @morangen unless you have watchtower watching it only pulls on start … it won’t repull while running (that’s watch watchtower does, be careful with latest , SOMETIMEs you get a lot of fun!!)

            like my zigbee2mqtt updated, but wouldn’t talk to my coordinator hardware anymore… oops

              @morangen said in Calendar Recurring events on wrong day:

              yes, not everyone wants auto updating if a new image is available.

              For this you can use tools like watchtower (as @sdetweil already mentioned).

              The docker image is updated weekly (for getting updates of the underlying debian) but because mm only releases every 3 months there are no mm changes inside.

              So beside auto updating you could do a manual docker pull ... every 3 months to get the new mm release …
