Add Daf A Week Calendar
Hebcal is so useful - thank you! It's nice that you've incorporated global learning programs into your calendar. Daf A Week is another good one that you should consider including just as Sefaria and others have done. If you email me, I can send you the full weekly schedule through 2057. Thanks

Edit Calendar
Is it at all possible to simply edit a calendar without having to delete my current one? Thanks!
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal!
Unfortunately, once you subscribe to a holiday calendar feed, it is not possible to make changes to your settings. You will indeed need to unsubscribe and then resubscribe to get an updated holiday calendar.
For personal Yahrzeit calendars, see this article about making changes:

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal and thanks for your question. We don't currently offer a way to view/print a calendar that's primarily based on the Hebrew months. Because of our focus on integrating with other calendar apps (Apple, Google, Outlook, etc), Hebcal uses the Gregorian calendar as the primary view.
Our colleagues at Judaism 101 maintain a 3-month calendar in the format you describe:
Yom Teruah off by a week
Yom Teruah is the first new moon after Autumnal Equinox. That puts it this year more like Gregorian September 23rd. Secular regularly gets Rosh Hashanah wrong because everyone likes the days to be nice and tidy for long weekends and such, but to keep it biblical, Feast of Trumpets is off.
Thanks for your message.
Rosh Hashanah is always observed on the first two days of Tishrei, the seventh month of the Hebrew calendar. Rosh Hashana for Hebrew Year 5784 begins at sundown on Friday, 15 September 2023 and ends at nightfall on Sunday, 17 September 2023.
The rules governing how the calendar works were developed during the rabbinic period and were fully codified by Maimonides in the Mishneh Torah in the 12th century. It would be a mistake to look only at the Bible and ignore the rabbinic sources or Rambam.

is there a way to get csv of secular calendar showing jewish holidays going back 50 years?
The short answer is that if you are comfortable editing a URL, you can append something like ?ny=50 to the end of a download.hebcal.com URL to download 50 years at a time (the "ny" stands for "number of years").
1. Go to https://www.hebcal.com/hebcal
2. Fill out the form for your preferences (for example starting in 1973) and choose "Create Calendar"
3. Click the "Download" button and a modal will pop up
4. Select the "CSV" option
5. Right-click on the CSV download option and pick "Copy link address"
6. Paste the link address into your browser URL bar (but don't hit the enter button on your keyboard)
7. Append ?ny=50 to the end of the URL, then click Enter
The downloaded CSV file should cover the range 1973 - 2023. Adjust the year in step 2 above per your needs.
