duplicate records in yartziet anniversary calendar
I just generated a yartziet anniversary calendar for 8 people. The downloaded file ( both csv & ics files) have near duplicate records for every actual event; one record contains a valarm block, the other one does not. a MAJOR bug.
additional requests:
- ability to set the valarm early notification date/time value
- ability to turn off the 'description' field in all vevent records
- ability to set an alternate category for the vevents ( like 'Yarziet' instead of 'Personal' )
Answer
Thanks for using the Hebcal Yahrzeit + Anniversary calendar, and thanks for your feedback.
The "duplicate" events you are seeing are the optional calendar reminders the day before each yahrzeit. This is not a bug, nor are they duplicate events. They are an optional reminder with an alarm to help users light candles the evening the Yahrzeit begins.
If you don't want these day-before reminders, please simply uncheck the "Calendar reminder day before yahrzeit" box before downloading or subscribing to the calendar feed.
