      @pauabaer you didn’t add the debug setting to config.js

      the transform happens in the front end, the backend (node_helper) gets the events from source and formats them for frontend.tye log you showed is from the backend

        I did add the debug setting but presumably at the wrong position.
        Thought I should add it here:

        
        module: "calendar",
        header: "Familienkalender",
        position: "top_left",
                           config:{
                                  loglevel: ["DEBUG"],
                                                customEvents: [
                                                        {
                                                        keyword: "Geburtstag",
                                                        symbol: "birthday-cake",
                                                        transform: {
                                                                search: "^([^\']*) \'(\\d{4})$",
                                                                replace: "$1 ($2)",
                                                                yearmatchgroup: 2
                                                                }
                                                        }

            Meanwhile I found the right place. Sorry for this.
            In the pic below you can see the entry.

              your search regex is wrong,

              ^(.+) (\\d{4}) Geburtstag$
              

              its captures EVERYTHING from the start… and there is nothing left for the remainder of the expression

              you need to capture any character UP to the 1st space,

              ^([^\s]+) (\d{4}) Gerburstag$
              

              I use https://regex101.com/ to test (see below)

              escape the backslash as required

                Ok. Within the regex101 there is no mistake. But when I change within the config nothing happens again.

                  @pauabaer you needed to escape the \ with another backslash
                  in the string… its a javascript thing

                  as I noted in my prior post
                  also remove the leading /
