Calendar Module still referencing Template

MASantangelo

So I’m hoping I’m explaining this properly… I’ve updated my Calendar Module to reference my Google calendar, and I’ve reloaded MagicMirror… As I watch the log via pm2 logs MagicMirror I see that it’s creating a calendar fetcher for the calendarlabs.com/Templates, not my webcal for my Google Calendar (I’ve tried changing it from webcal:// to http:// and https://).

Any suggestions?

Specifically, my calendar module is:

            {
                    module: "calendar",
                    position: "top_left",
                    config: {
                            maximumEntries: "15",
                            maximumNumberOfDays: "30",
                            url: "webcal://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/private@group.calendar.google.com/private-private/basic.ics",
                            symbol: "calendar",
                    }
            },

and the line I’m seeing in the PM2 log is:

            0|MagicMir | Create new calendar fetcher for url: http://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics - Interval: 300000

This is just a shot in the dark but I think I remember something about “private” calendars not displaying.

Try duplicating your private calendar, making the duplicate “public”, then get the ics url for the public copy and try that.

Alternately, if you can download the private calendar.ics file and call it locally. That might work, as well.

If neither works, then someone else will have to chime in here and hopefully you will accept my apologies for sending you on a wild goose chase.

@Mykle1 So, I tried three things: I tried making the existing calendar public, I tried making a duplicate and making it public, I tried downloading the ICS locally and referencing that. No matter what I change the calendar to (even a completely broken url), it ALWAYS references the calendarlabs one… This is very weird. Maybe I’ll try an update of the base MagicMirror.

@Mykle1 That didn’t do it either. I stumbled upon this thread: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/127/question-about-calendar/7

So I changed my config to:

            {
                    module: "calendar",
                    position: "top_left",
                    config: {
                            maximumEntries: "15",
                            maximumNumberOfDays: "30",
                            calendars: [
                                    {
                                            symbol: "calendar",
                                            url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/private@group.calendar.google.com/private-private/basic.ics",
                                    }
                            ]
                    }
            },

And now it’s working. Woohoo!

Thanks anyways @Mykle1 !

You know, I didn’t even realize your config was missing the array brackets. My bad.

Glad you worked it out! Enjoy your mirror

@Mykle1 I’m gonna chalk that up to not enough coffee on my part. :)
