Feed to Wordpress inverted

Nelly Guarani-Kaiowá Altenburg 8 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 8 years ago 1

When we added the Hebcal feed to our wordpress BETA site the feed presents Havdalah first, then Parashat hashavuah and then candle lighting time, in reverse order. How can we make the correct order? Thanks.

Thanks for your message. Sorry for the inconvenience!


To fix the problem, please edit the Hebcal candle-lighting times RSS feed to add the text &pubDate=0 to the end of the URL. For example, if the URL you were using looks like this:


http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat/?cfg=r&geonameid=281184&i=on&m=50


Change it to this:


http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat/?cfg=r&geonameid=281184&i=on&m=50&pubDate=0

Shabbat times REST API response missing a header

Roi Dayan 9 years ago updated by israel wissotzky 2 years ago 6
The json api response is missing a header in the response to allow access by origin.

example request showing the problem:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat?cfg=json&geo=pos&latitude=31&longitude=35&m=50&tzid=Asia%2FJerusalem. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://127.0.0.1:8000' is therefore not allowed access.

the jewish calendar api is ok.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.


As of August 2020, the trailing slash after "converter" or after "shabbat" is now optional.

All of the following will work correctly with the CORS header without triggering a 301 redirect

https://www.hebcal.com/shabbat?cfg=json

https://www.hebcal.com/shabbat/?cfg=json

https://www.hebcal.com/converter?cfg=json

https://www.hebcal.com/converter/?cfg=json


http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat?cfg=json

http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat/?cfg=json

http://www.hebcal.com/converter?cfg=json

http://www.hebcal.com/converter/?cfg=json

The Hebcal website generally requires https for most pages but still allows http for any URL with cfg=json.

iPhone Lost Hebcal

Howard Bleich 8 years ago 0

On 2 Dec 2015, at about 8 PM EST, all Hebcal displays in my iPhone 5S iOS 9.1 disappeared. Whether I select or deselect the Hebcal Calendars makes no difference. All other calendars on my iPhone work normally -- their entries merge into the master display when the calendars are selected.

We need to study our biblical etymology.

Bradley Hauf 8 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 8 years ago 1

I refute the usage of the word fun. The word is a trasngression. It is the sin of tricks lies and deceits. Fun means stupid. its usage is to denote jesters and joking and kidding which are strictly forbidden by scriptures. We have to repent of our sins of fun. Fun does not mean true joyousness. I forsake fun. I seek Joy. Hope. Shemcka is the Hebrew word for? The word pride also means vanity/avarice. This is forbidden in holy scriptures is it not? If we knew anything about the holy bible we would know that vices are forsaken. Virtues of Chastity (Ahavah) are against all worries. Bless The One True Messiah. Against our stupid false usage of etymology. We really have not studied our language have we? Those that speak Hebrew and those that speak english? Question is "If in Hebrew the word means rah and an english trasnlation states the same, I would suggest we forsake the sin. For if avarice is of the way of death then we are to forsake avarice. Even other translations of the word are not to be used. Why seek fun? Its mindless self indulgence. What are people really seeking after when they seek fun? They do not know because they have not studied their etymology. They have not studied definitions nor others. I still forsake usuary and wonder a decent alternative to the word use. Yahweh seeks intelligence and HE likes intelligent questions with wisdom knowledge and an understanding of fulfillment of His Will. If they are seeking after fun they are seeking after lies tricks and deceits. These ruachs are to be prayed against. Only Ahavah Ruachs of Tav are to be accepted.

length of calendar entry

Mordy E 9 years ago updated 9 years ago 1
I have long used your great program as a trigger for my home automation system. Lately however, certain events have been missed and I think i tracked it down to the fact that "appointments" are now less than 1 minute long in the feed. Is there any way to have it set to at least one minute in length? (candle lighting used to be 18 minutes long for example)
