      one thing i’ve now noticed since removing the duplicate tableClass entry in the calendar module’s config, when i now run :
      pm2 logs --lines=15
      i am now seeing the Broadcasting ### events entries calendars update on the scheduled intervals.

      Prior, while i was having the issue, i would see a constant updating of the live view of pm2 logs.

        That makes sense, but I see a lot more updates then what you describe here.
        I’ve added a screenshot of the updates I get to my github issue, and I’ve added it here as well. (note that all the messages have the same length, and some are a few seconds apart.

        I’m not sure how to proceed in troubleshooting. When I enable debug logging, it is outputting a LOT (the whole ics file contains data from years ago).

          @DarrenO-0 sorry, not quite sure what you’ve said here

          You specified tableClass twice in the config of a single calendar module declaration?

          JavaScript should take the second, and ignore the first
          JSON.parse() should overlay the first w the second

          And tableClass is only used in the presentation of the events long after the broadcast message is sent

            @michaelarnauts For the log output, we were looking for the broadcasting xxxx events messages entries
            But note they have the full URL string , which you shouldn’t post on the forum

              Correct, yes.
              I would have assumed, and expect, that the second specified instance of “tableClass” would supersede the first, but for some reason when I removed either instance and re-saved the config, the calendar has been rock-solid and no longer performs the constant/frequent refresh outside of the fetchInterval value.

              Was the duplicate value the cause and removing it was the solution?
              Was simply re-saving the config, to force MM to re-read it, the solution?
              I don’t know, but it is all now working as expected - i see the calendar temporarily fade out and redisplay according to the configured 5min interval
              When viewing the live tail of pm2 logs --lines=15, i’m no longer seeing a constant display of the “Broadcasting…” of each calendar throughout the configured fetchInterval. I now only and correctly see it update according to the fetchInterval value.
