        Thanks a lot for this great module
        I have a few questions:

        1.)
        Can you please share your config for the 2nd above standing screen (with the “current” and the “upcoming” one) as an example?

        2.)
        Is it possible to load an ical file from the storage?

        Thanks a lot

          1.)
          Can you please share your config for the 2nd above standing screen (with the “current” and the “upcoming” one) as an example?

          config: {
            system: {
              show: ['upcoming', 'current'], //you can select views which you want to show.
            },
            views: {
              upcoming: {
                position: "top_left",
                title: "UPCOMING EVENTS",
                limit: 5,
              },
              current: {
                position: "top_left",
                title: "CURRENT EVENTS",
                limit: 5,
              }
            },
            calendars: [
              {
                name: "US Holiday",
                url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics",
              }
            ],
          }
          

          For more detailed configuration, See https://github.com/eouia/MMM-CalendarExt/wiki/Configuration

          2.)
          Is it possible to load an ical file from the storage?

          You can put your ical to MagicMirror root directory and use it as http://localhost:8080/yourIcal.ics. I think it could be, but i didn’t try. After some test, I could tell you more exact information.

            You can use like this;

            1. put your ical file (test.ics) to MMM-CalendarExt directory
            2. Use this url. http://localhost:8080/modules/MMM-CalendarExt/test.ics

            It works.

              Thanks a lot
              Both works

              I have a few more questions

              3.)
              Having the month view, it displays me 6 weeks (2 old ones)
              Is there a “screw” where i can change it
              Display “only” 4 weeks and no “old” one

              4.)
              Can i overrite dates and make them to “complete day meetings” (like in your example “Hausmüll”)
              Here in me ical is it a entry from 10 to 11 and in the view “upcoming” there is an entry in the calendar which is viewn as [object Object] ==> Also i want to save some space with a complete date entry

              5.)
              Is there a possibility instead of using symbols to use names?
              Like “Mama” or “Papa”…

              Thanks a lot

                What did you mean ‘screw’?
                Anyway month view cannot be done for that.
                But you can use ‘daily’ view for that purpose.(with ‘counts:28’) However some css adjusting might be needed for your mirror’s look.

                4.)

                Can you send me your ical file? I need to inspect.
                For fulldayevents, you should have created that events as fullday. Or you could modify event time from 00:00-24:00
                For saving space, see the wiki page. And some css technics would be help.

                5.)

                Like “Mama” or “Papa”…

                Well, I think you can prepend or append some text in specific style with css virtual selector(‘:before’).

                Sorry for my non-pragmatic answers.
                I’m not in front of device now, so I cannot make any real solution with real code. During weekends, I have no time for console works. I’ll check your questions again on Monday.

                    Thank you for a great module! I second @Vauxdvihl about only wanting see the the current week, plus the next 3. Google calendar has that feature. Basically, a clone of the month view, but not starting from the 1st of the month, but from the first day of the current week.

                    I tried doing what you suggested with using daily and 28 and it’s close to what I want. But I am only seeing 6 per row. What do I need to modify to make sure I am seeing 7 days?

                    Also, is there a way to completely remove the icon and the space for it? I don’t see it in any on the defined styles. I would prefer to have a little more extra breathing room on my fairly narrow monitor.

                    Again, thanks for a great module!

                      @Zooooooom I’ll provide some tricks for ‘next 28 days(7 per week) view’ on Monday. It needs some css tricks.
                      Your other question also could be considered at that time.
                      Thanks for using.

                        Here is some ‘next 28 days view’ sample.
                        0_1508140047256_Magic_Mirror.jpg

                        1. Open your css/custom.css and append these code;
                        /* CSS adjusting for 28days view */
                        
                        /* hide unnecessary components */
                        #CALEXT_daily .eventTime,
                        #CALEXT_daily .eventLocation,
                        #CALEXT_daily .symbol {
                          display:none;
                        }
                        
                        /* smaller size for events */
                        #CALEXT_daily .eventContent {
                          font-size:0.8em;
                          font-weight:normal;
                        }
                        
                        /* makes "slot" 1/7 of 100% */
                        #CALEXT_daily .slot {
                          max-width:13%;
                          flex-basis:13%;
                        }
                        
                        /* smaller size for events */
                        #CALEXT_daily .slot .header {
                          font-size:0.5em;
                          border-radius:0;
                          font-weight:normal;
                        }
                        
                        /* add some style sample */
                        #CALEXT_daily .style_custom2 {
                          background-color:rgba(255, 127, 255, 1.0);
                        }
                        
                        /* add some additional content sample */
                        #CALEXT_daily .style_custom2 .eventContent::before{
                          content: "[@]";
                        }
                        
                        1. open your config.js, put these codes.
                        {
                              module: 'MMM-CalendarExt',
                              position: "top_center", // ignore this.
                              config: {
                                system: {
                                  show: ['daily'],
                                  locale: 'en',
                                },
                                views: {
                                  daily: {
                                    position:'bottom_bar',
                                    counts:28,
                                    //overflowRolling:1,
                                    //overflowHeight:50,
                                  },
                                },
                                calendars :[
                                  {
                                    name: "bundesliga",
                                    styleName: "style_custom1",
                                    oneLineEvent: 1,
                                    url: "webcal://www.google.com/calendar/ical/en5624jps9pfbtgsd7op2him0k%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics",
                                  },
                                  {
                                    name: "DFB POKAL",
                                    styleName: "style_custom2",
                                    //oneLineEvent: 1,

                                  },
                                  {
                                    name: "Theater GRIPS",
                                    styleName: "style_custom3",
                                    oneLineEvent: 1,
                                    url: "http://ical.grips-theater.de/grips.ics",
                                  }
                                ],
                              }
                            },
                        
                        1. You can refer also https://github.com/eouia/MMM-CalendarExt/wiki/Manipulation-of-looks

                        2. Main trick is

                        /* makes "slot" 1/7 of 100% */
                        #CALEXT_daily .slot {
                          max-width:13%;
                          flex-basis:13%;
                        }
                        

                        You might need to adjust the value 13% to your circumstances. Because of margin and padding, 14% might not work.

                        1. You can also consider overflow and oneLineEvent and titleReplace for saving spaces.

                        Anyway, under 700px width, this could not work. That is too narrow to display 7 slots.
