“mdi:recycle”,

Remove the trailing comma

scuppasteve

@Sean That worked perfectly . How would you go about making the slot event background not be a black gradient? I just want the whole thing to be transparent.

@Sean Similar to the Transform method used to identify a keyword in a title and change the icon (birthday is the example) is there a way to do the same thing (identify a key word) and change the color and background-color for that specific item?

My example would be if the word “Softball” is found in the title of a calendar entry it would transform the icon to a softball icon (already have this figured out). I also want to change the background-color and possibly the (font) color.

@sdetweil - It gets worse.

65:  transform: (event) => {  
66:	if (event.title.search("Recycle") > -1) {
67:	event.icon = "mdi:recycle"
68: 	},
69: 	return event
70: },

68: }, < ------- remove THAT trailing comma

need node V6, which we should be LONG past.
do a node -v

@sdetweil @BKeyport I had the same issue with the arrow function. I did node -v and my system is v10.15.2. I was able to work around the issue by using the older notation like shown below.

FYI - I just revised your code so you can copy and try it.

65:  transform: function(event)  {  
66:	if (event.title.search("Recycle") > -1) {
67:	event.icon = "mdi:recycle";
68: 	}
69: 	return event;
70: },

EDIT - line 68 revised to fix an error

BKeyport

@cskenney Your code almost got it. - had to remove the comma on line 68 there, but it now checks out…

~~Just don’t seem to do anything yet. Tweaking some more.~~

Actually, it’s doing exactly what it’s designed to do. It shows the icon for the event. I didn’t expect it to leave the title in place too. That’ll do perfect.

I’m glad it worked for you. I edited the code above to remove the comma in case someone else tries to use it. I originally missed it when I edited your code.

Sorry for the late reply. At weekends, I rarely am in front of computer.
You can define class in your CSS. then assign it into your transfrom code.

transform: (event) => {  
  if (event.title.search("Recycle") > -1) {
    event.icon = "mdi:recycle"
    event.className = "CLASS_RECYCLE" // in your css/custom.css, define color and bgcolor for this class
  }
  return event
},
