Sean:
Looks like we’re getting screwed over here:
Starting February 15, 2021, G Suite accounts will only allow access to apps using OAuth. Password-based access will no longer be supported.
Calendar
If you use CalDAV to give an app or device access to your calendar, switch to a method that supports OAuth. We recommend the Google Calendar app [Web/iOS/Android] as the most secure app to use with your G Suite account. -

i’ve been asked this already countless times, however still the answer is same.
i regard week/month view as a kind of brief overview or summary of long periods. so have no idea to provide details on these both views.Because;
- wrapping usually looks ugly anyhow.
- the more title means the less events to show at a same time in same area.
- can use transforming for abbreviation or using icon or assigning styles for better distinguishing than long text
- additional better views exist to show detailed info of more important and close future events. like upcoming or daily.
- real web or desktop application - google calendar and apple calendar - also don’t provide title wrapping in month style views.
So, sorry.

@BKeyport
hmm i don’t use G suit, so at this moment, have no idea how things going. I’ll research.
(maybe 3rd party converter module could be possible to solve that issue without modification of this module directly) -
@Sean I figure Google’s gonna do that to main accounts sooner or later. GSuite is usually the test bed.
I’m likely going to be moving my
calendaragenda system, depends on what my appointment manager supports. -
@Sean,
I’m trying to add an ICS file, but it’s throwing an error, but other calendars accepts it.
The url is http://www.tax.gov/calendar/employer/calendar.ics
Log from PM2 LOGS shows this error:
[CALEXT2] calendar:irs >> invalid date-time value: “2016-12-30T::”
Is it the US Government not knowing what’s going on, or is it a bug in the code?
Thanks!

@Sean
Thanks for the great module, it is the main reason for my Magic Mirror / picture frame.Could you explain the syntax for using the “transform” command to change the title of an event to a shorter abbreviation (e.g. “jack climbing” = > “J.C.”)? I have some items in my calendar that are displayed on the monthly view with a title “Dinner: Taco Soup” and I would like to use transform to remove the "Dinner: " from the title. I have searched the documentation and the forum, but am having a tough time figuring out how I need to specify this in my config.js (or custom.css).

Basically, read this.
https://github.com/eouia/MMM-CalendarExt2/wiki/Filtering-and-Sorting#transformingYou need some basic skills in JavaScript. Anyway, I’ll show some examples;
- Original
I’ve added two events on 25th Dec.
Lunch:Taco Soup Once
andDinner:Taco Soup Twice
on my Google calendar.
Hmmmm Taco Soup on Christmas, what a poor…It will be shown like this on MMM-CalendarExt2 without transforming;
- Remove
Dinner:
transform: (event)=>{ event.title = event.title.replace("Dinner:", "") return event }
will make this;
- give more transforming.
transform: (event)=>{ if (event.title.search("Dinner:") > -1) { event.title = event.title.replace("Dinner:", "") event.icon = "emojione-pot-of-food" event.className = "myDinnerClass" } return event }
I’ve added icon and specific CSS class selector. So you can define your CSS class on
MagicMirror/css/custom.css
like this;.CX2 .myDinnerClass { color: Black; background-color: Yellow; }
It will be shown like this;
!Of course, there would be more tricks if you know javascript somehow.
If you are not familiar with Javascript,… hmmm sorry for you. Anyway, this is DIY project. There is no ready-made out-of-box arts.

Hello together.
Is it possible to Show two different calendars, on two different pages (mmm-pages)?
-
@Clubjack
Possible.
You need 2scenes
which have independentviews
of your calendars.
Then, read this;
