Adding maariv, shacharit, and minchah prayer times?
Any thoughts about adding maariv, shacharit, and minchah prayer times?
Your dates are off in the 2022 calendar Yamim. The dates are right when when I click on the holiday, but not on the initial calendar

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal and thanks for your feedback.
We recently redesigned the holidays year-on-a-page to be more mobile friendly and to better clarify that holidays start the evening before (except for minor fasts which begin at dawn).

We hope you enjoy the new design!

nekudot/vowels on Hebrew
Is there any way of obtaining the Hebrew calendar without nikud on the Hebrew dates?
Hi, we have recently added an option to create calendars without nikud.
If you are downloading the easy calendars at https://www.hebcal.com/ical/ you will see a new option
And if you are generating a custom calendar you can use the new option under "Event Titles" for Hebrew or Hebrew with nikud.
Help! I need a perennial calendar that applies to any year to keep track of birthdays and yardzeits etc...

"torah" field chol hamoed pesach incorrect
In Chol Hamoed Pesach Torah readings, each aliya is correct, but the overall "Torah reading" fields are incorrect. They either omit the 4th aliya, or (for ChM 4) show the entire range from aliya 1 to aliya 4 without separating it to show the chapters skipped.
Thanks for using Hebcal, and thanks for the bug report! We have fixed this issue.
For ChM1, it now says: "Torah Portion: Exodus 13:1-16; Numbers 28:19-25" - and similarly it's fixed in other places where the aliyot contain readings from multiple sifrei Torah
Can you add Mevarchim/Molad info into the Shabbat API?
Long time user, first time caller.
Before I start, I want to thank you for all the hard work over the years to make this site and data better and better. It really has made a difference not only for me, but for helping me communicate the calendar, holidays, etc to my colleagues (and family, in some cases).
Shameless flattery out of the way, my question is whether you could, as the subject of this post implies, add the Molad information into the Shabbat API. I know I can loop through the full calendar output, but for my application (pulling the upcoming Shabbat information to auto-build my shul's email) it seems like it would be less overall churn it (the molad) was included in the Shabbat output.
Thank you again.
Thanks for using Hebcal and thanks for the suggestion! We have added Shabbat Mevarchim to the Shabbat API

You'll notice an item that looks like this:
{
"title": "Shabbat Mevarchim Chodesh Elul",
"date": "2021-08-07",
"category": "mevarchim",
"hebrew": "שבת מברכים חודש אלול",
"memo": "Molad Elul: Sun, 43 minutes and 10 chalakim after 10:00"
},
Deselect Major Holidays
I want to export Major Holidays, Minor Holidays, Modern Holidays all to different calendars, but there doesn’t seem to be the ability to export the two latter only—for some reason “Major Holidays” is checked and I can’t uncheck it. is there any way to export just Minor Holidays or Modern Holidays?
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal, and thanks for the question.
Unfortunately no, we don't have a way to export just Minor or Modern holidays. Currently our calendar requires major holidays when you check one of the other options.
Calendar no longer offers Hebrew date for 20 years?
You previously had a option to create a calendar showing each year's Hebrew date. That is what I was seeking when I logged in today. I don't need a calendar showing when the English birthday occurs, I need the Hebrew date. How can I now do that without having to do year by year with the converter?
