Calendar overlapping problem

  • S

    Hi everyone,
    as you can see on the attached picture, my calendar is overlapping with weather forecast module.
    I tried to show absolute Dates like “30 Jan”, not “In one month”, but it’s not working.
    And, as you can see, the line under the calendar module is underneath the weather forecast module… why are they not at the same height, aligned correctly?
    I’m using an old netbook screen with a low resolution of 1024x600 rotatet.

    var config = {
port: 8080,
ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
// or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
// ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
// or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
// ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],

    Thanks in advanced,
    Gery!

    PS: I tried to get rid of the icon bevore each calendar entry by supressing the symbol config, it didn’t work.

  • @StrikeBack83 you didn’t put the config options in the right place, try:

    {
  module: "calendar",
  header: "Österreichische Feiertage",
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    timeFormat: "absolute",
    maxTitleLength: 17,
    maximumNumberOfDays: 7,
    dateFormat: "DD MMM",
    fullDayEventDateFormat: "DD MMM",
    urgency: 0,
    getRelative: 0,
    calendars: [
      {
        //symbol: "calendar-check-o ",
        url: "https://www.ferienwiki.at/exports/feiertage/2017/at/wien"
      }
    ]
  }
},

    Furthermore you can get mor space out of your monitor, by applying the following css rule in custom.css

    body {
  margin: 10px;
  height: calc(100% - 20px);
  width: calc(100% - 20px);
}

    In your custom.css file, add :

    .calendar .symbol {
  display: none;
}

    Save!
    Restart MM.
    That should do it.

    @strawberry 3.141
    Made all changes and they worked very well, thanks!

    @Mykle1

    I made this change and now i get no entries for my calendar at all.

    No sir. That won’t work.

    I made this change and now i get no entries for my calendar at all.

    Take it out of the body.

    body {
  blah: blah;
}

.calendar .symbol {
  display: none;
}

    Ok, remove that entry from your custom.css file altogether. Revert any changes you made regarding " supressing the symbol config" and add this to your calendar config entry"
    displaySymbol: false,

    It’s right there in the ReadMe file of the calendar module. 3rd entry, configuration options.

    THANKS! I’ve overseen this config option 😉
    My bad!
