@sdetweil - well, that explains it…I was using ctrl-r and wondering why it wasn’t working. Eventually, I was just “x” out of the terminal window. Again, thank you for the help.

@sdetweil - thank you for the help. It’s finally working with your help. My calendar is up and running. But another quick question, I’m using npm start to start the calendar. How would I stop the calendar? Again, Thank you!

Hello all,

So, it’s been a while since I’ve worked on MM. So, I just recently upgraded my PI3 and updated MM as well to the latest version. I’m getting a black screen whenever I’m starting MM. This is what I’m getting after running /npm start…(any help is appreciated)

I guess @Mahault fell off the face of the earth? Looks like we answered his questions! lol

@Mahault - is this what you might be trying for? Hacker Schack’s YouTube Video

Thank you @sdetweil and @BKeyport for the information.

This weekend I’m going to be working some more on the MM especially the CSS to get the calendars the way I want. So, I’m going to be making the “custom.css” file. Which of the current “.css” file am I going to us to fill the “custom.css” file? Also, on the next updating of MM am I going to lose the “custom.css” file?

@Sean said in MMM-CalendarExt2:

@Turtle
I suspect maxItems of each view, but not confirm the reason without real ical data. send me your ical’s URL to inspect what happens. (eouia0819@gmail.com)

@Sean - it was sent. Thank you!

I’m confusing myself with all these examples I’m looking out from the main documentation to other people’s examples. When MM starts, I get the monthly calendar the entire screen but with none of my information from any of the four calendars that I have. Also, I do get the “Upcoming” view in the top_left hand corner with only my information from “Turtle’s Calendar” but not the other calendar. Here is my code…

config: {
    				calendars : [
      					{
					name: "Turtle's Calendar",        					
					url: "",
      					},
					{
					name: "Work Calendar",
					url: "",
					},
					{
					name: "Bill Calendar",
					url: "",
					},
					{
					name: "Payday Calendar",
					url: "",
					},
    					],
    				views: [
      					{
						name: "MONTHVIEW",        					
						mode: "month",
						position: "bottom_bar",
						calendars: ["Turtle's Calendar", "Work Calendar", "Bill Calendar", "Payday Calendar"],
      					},

					{
						name: "DAILYVIEW",        					
						mode: "upcoming",
						Title: "Upcoming Events",
						slotCount: 10,
						hideOverflow: false,
						filterPassedEvent: true,
						calendars: ["Turtle's Calendar", "Work Calendar", "Bill Calendar", "Payday Calendar"],
      					},
    					],
    				scenes: [
      					{
        					name: "DEFAULT",
						views: ["MONTHVIEW", "DAILYVIEW"],
      					},
					
    				],
  			},
		},
		
	]

@sdetweil - thank you again…I got it up and working. Just got to do some tweaking!
