More weeks using MMM-MonthlyCalendar?
-
I have things looking basically how I want it. My main goal was a digital wall calendar to replace our large paper wall calendar. My only complaint with MMM-MonthlyCalendar is that I would love to show 6 weeks to be able to see further out (and better make use of the space). I tried switching to MMM-CalendarExt3, but text wrapping is a non-negotiable for me, on top of frustrations getting it to sit in the right space on screen. Is it possible to change the number of weeks shown on MMM-MonthlyCalendar? Is there a better calendar mod for what I’m trying to accomplish?

@LaeHarr going a solid number of weeks outside a month is kinda rough. What I would do is use something like MMM-Multimonth and enable 2 months.

@LaeHarr it’s not directly what you asked for. Calendars suck up a lot of space .
Many users use mmm-pages, carousel or other modules to give multiple pages
I use ext3 in month mode and show 3 months in rotation
I don’t know if that module can display sep months as two instances so you could put them on sep pages

@BKeyport Thank you. I’ve already tried adding a second month with this module, but it took too much space (which ended up cutting off my view of the first week). I may mess with turning it vertically and seeing if I like that better with two months, or keeping the four weeks as-is (it just feels like a waste of space!).

@sdetweil Thank you! I didn’t consider using multiple pages. This is something I am going to look into and see if it will work for my purposes. A bummer that I can’t easily turn this into a 6-week calendar, but I do appreciate knowing that it’s not possible so that I don’t waste my time.
Unrrelated, but because I don’t want to take up space making an entire new post, what am I missing to change the background color for different calendars? I’ve tried “color:” in js, but it only changes the text color. I tried using name and then calling it in the css, but must be missing a step since that isn’t working either. I’m feeling like I’m missing something terribly simple over here.

@LaeHarr
Background color is tough, because the intent is to seamlessly allow the background to show thru for a consistent look and also allow for background images/colorIf the modules were all opaque, you would have blobs of color all over the screen
But for css it’s the background-color style to use in custom.css

@LaeHarr as a separate topic on CSS. many times the exact mechanism isn’t documented or clear
as MM is built on a web browser, all the browser CSS approaches work, if you can figure them out!..
to that end, the browser provides a development environment where you can review and test setting styles on the content
see the second link in my signature below for a starter use on that.
