I wish there was a module that would show local events...

Is there also a way to show the date of the event in dd-mm-yy format? instead of yyyy-dd-mm?

@joela85 LOL I’m looking at the pictures I’m not seeing it as yyyy-dd-mm… I"m seeing mm/dd/yyyy.

I don’t have any plans to reformat the date. If I change it then undoubtedly, someone will want it the way it was.

. It would be great to have a few multiple event types.

I’ll get back to you on that. I don’t even think it will require editing the module.

Ye, there aren’t many events in Leamington itself. Can >you put a distance radius around your home post code?

Not at the moment. Cities are the best route right now. If you want to extend a radius around your post code then you can just choose the nearest major city.

Thank you for your help, great little module.

You’re welcome, and thank you.

Ok, so, your config entry for eventType was not incorrect. You had it formatted correctly, categories separated by commas, all within a single pair of quotes.

eventType: "music, comedy, performing_arts, sports, food, food_beer, outdoors_recreation",

Caveat: The module GET’s 50 events per updateInterval. If the first category in eventType has 50 or more events, you may never see the secondary categories appear. The module does not, for example, GET 10 events from each of the categories.

Ah ok, so could put them in preference order then. My dates now appear in dd-mm-yyyy format. Could be doing that on location basis.
