is there a command i should be running when the pi boots? As i have been going into the folder and loading the index.html file from there.

I’m not really sure what you’re asking. The index.html file isn’t going to launch the mirror. Open a terminal, cd into the MagicMirror directory and run npm start. If you get the config error, we’ll take it from there once you post your terminal and config here

In your config.js file, in the calendar module entry, you can either add this OR edit the existing entry for US-Holidays. If you do not want the US Holidays calendar then simply change the end of the url to UK-Holidays.ics.

{
symbol: "calendar-check-o ",
url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/UK-Holidays.ics"
},
