rotateInterval(When you are using multi-scenes) or updateInterval would be an answer.

@Sean Look at that, I missed that. So many options:-) Thanks alot, and again, great work!

Hey, so I’ve been using CalendarExt2 for a while for the ‘Current’ calendar feature, but I’m having to move the calendar I use over to private, I have an account with full authorization to view the calendar but when I add

	auth: {
		user: "[email protected]",		
		pass: "password",
		method: 'basic'
		}

to my calendar config, it stops working and kind of causes my whole MagicMirror to crash after a while. The logs show everything loading as normal.

My full config is

		{
	module: "MMM-CalendarExt2",
	config: {
	calendars : [
		{
		name: "Current",
		scanInterval: 120000,
		maxItems: 4,
		url: "",
		auth: {
				user: "",
				pass: "",
				method: "basic",
			},
		},
	],
	views: [
		{
		name: "Current",
		mode: "current",
		position: "bottom_center",
		calendars: [],
		slotTitle: "Current Event",
		},
 ],
 scenes: [
		{
		name: "DEFAULT",
		views: [],
		},
		],
	},
},

I do use this with another calendar module, that one works fine with the authentication though.

Thank you for the great module otherwise!

Hello, I’m having several issues. Im new to coding for the most part. I took a couple basic web design classes about 12 years ago.
I was working on my magic mirror for about 12 hours yesterday. The major issue being my events are not loading from my Google calendar. I used it in the standard upcoming holidays module to make sure I was linking it correctly. They show up there, but not in the calenderext2. The other issue is sizing. Its larger than the screen viewing area. I’m sure I’m doing something wrong. I copied the example that was posted in the file and it changes the css look but not the size and events still dont show up. Any help would be appreciated.

Damn, I appreciate you trying to take a look but I technically cant due to HIPAA compliance.

Have you heard of anyone having any issues with the auth before?

So, I tried a public google calendar as well as 2 of my private shared google calendars. The shared public one does not work, 1 of my shared one works, and 1 does not within the module. However, all of these calendars work in the default upcoming events module. Any suggestions on why this is? Also, I tried changing the “calendarfetcher.js” in the default calendar folder and with that change the default calendar stopped working, but the mmm-calendarext2 worked.

I think I figured out the problem. I can see other recent events added to these calendars. I think since they are older calendars they fall outside of the maxItems: 100, beforeDays: 60, afterDays: 365, maxIterations: 100 ranges. I tried adjusting those to go back to the start of the calendars and when I do it doesn’t pull in any events from any of my calendars. I’m not sure how to fix this.

maybe some repeated events couldn’t be parsed. this is using different parser with default module. it is faster and has more features. but occasionally it fails some repeated events.
i’m researching how to improve but not yet success. i may return but need more time to consider.
