      The file is named config. It‘s not a directory, it‘s the name of the file. (No ending).

          Yes. Just type these commands as given:

          touch ~/.vdirsyncer/config
          nano ~/.vdirsyncer/config

            @l0cal Hi !

            I’m also interrested on this solution to display reminders on this way, but It dosen’t work actually for me.
            Do you have a running configuration

                  Is your ics-file in modules/calendars also 0kb?

                      Doesn’t seem like they are empty in KB. However the first file has rw–r–r-- and the others only rw------ don’t know if these permissions affects the none fetching of data

                        @maestro82 So I was able to get through the tutorial with no errors, all files discovered and synced. But when I run MagicMirror calendar says “Loading…” and never loads. I have changed interval to 5min in timer file. Any advise to troubleshoot?

                        Thanks,

                                Solved this issue by using “http:” not “https:” in calendar url but now my calendar shows no events. I looked into the actual “modules/calendars/****.ics” file and it contains multiple events. Any suggestions?

                                  Did you check your calendar-url in conf/config.js?

                                  My calendar is running now correctly. Don‘t know why but now my ics-file isn‘t empty anymore.

                                    So . . . . . . restarted the mirror and now it works. Moving on to adding other calendars, wish us luck.

                                      So I have three separate calendars linked to ical, running on my magic mirror. I see events from all three calendars, but many events are missing. Any ideas?

                                        You are probably limiting the number of calendar items shown in your calendar config. (IDK what is the default, but perhaps only 10-15 which for 3 cals can be easily overloaded.)

                                          I have several reoccurring events on the same day, only one of each event is showing up. The number of events is set at 10 but it is going out at least 4 months with that set. It should only go out about 3 weeks with 10 events listed. I’ll try raising the number of events and limiting the time.
