Yarzheit Email Reminder suggestion
Hi, I very much like the ability to bulk load in yarzheits. I do find for many yahrzeits, the week in advance reminder is not enough and I can forget even last minute. Can you have an option to also send a reminder a day or two before? Thank you.

chovetz chaim calednar bug (shows xx's on some days). Hebrew months displayed at the top?
Bs"D. Note that i checked the chovetz chaim box with the tehillim box. also, is there a way to have the Hebrew months displayed at the top instead of Gregorian (Jan, Feb, etc)? even if i check the box "Hebrew year" or "Israeli holiday schedule" it doesn't show when i go to "print." I'd like the calendar to display at the top "Shevat 5784, Adar, etc" . thanks Baruch Hashem
Hi, thanks for your message!
We are not AppSheet experts. Have you tried bringing Hebcal data into Google Calendar, and then from Google Calendar into AppSheet?

Hi, thanks for your message. We're not sure what you mean by glitch? The web page looks correct to us.

When you click on the parsha link, it takes you to the Torah reading for that week which is Parashat Beha’alotcha. The date listed on the Parashat Beha’alotcha page is always the Shabbat that the parsha is read... in this case, it is Saturday, 22 June 2024.
If you see a page that incorrectly has the date June 26 on it, could you send the URL and/or a screenshot?
Thanks for using the Hebcal date converter.
Unfortunately, no, we do not offer a timezone parameter or another web API to determine the Hebrew date based on the current date in a timezone.
You can do this in JavaScript using our Zmanim JavaScript API using something like the following code
const {Location, Zmanim, HDate} = require('@hebcal/core');
const location = Location.lookup('Boston');
const now = new Date();
const zmanim = new Zmanim(location, now, false);
const sunset = zmanim.sunset();
let hd = new HDate(now);
if (now >= sunset) {
hd = hd.next();
}
seems like the haftarah for Parashat Shekalim for Sefardi tradition is wrong. i
t's listed as Haftarah for Vayakhel, but according to mu siddur there is a Sefardi specific haftarah .
Thanks, this is very helpful! We have fixed the web pages. The corrected reading appears in both of these places:
