Great, glad to hear the problem is resolved!

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal. We're sorry to hear that you're having difficulty editing a Yahrzeit date.

Based on the information you provided, it sounds like you created your Yahrzeit calendar subscription sometime before August 2020.

If you subscribed before August 2020, you will need to delete or unsubscribe the calendar containing your yahrzeit and anniversary reminders. Hebcal personal event calendars created before this date do not support editing event dates or names. Directions for how to delete/remove a subscribed calendar vary by calendar application.

For more information, you can read this article on Hebcal.com

How to make changes to a Yahrzeit + Anniversary calendar

Thanks for your message. So sorry to hear you are having trouble. 

We are unfortunately unable to reproduce the problem you describe but would like to help sort out the issue. 

When you follow the instructions below, what do you see when you get to step 5? Can you send us a screenshot of what you see on your iOS device?

Also, FWIW, there's a Homebridge implementation also

https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-jewish-calendar

This would be a great idea!

Note that someone already implemented a Home Assistant using the Python hdate library, which offers similar functionality.

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/jewish_calendar/

We'll investigate what it might take to implement other integrations.

Thanks for using Hebcal, and thanks the bug report. We were able to reproduce the error you noticed and have fixed the issue. Please try reloading the page and re-downloading the CSV calendar and the modern holidays should be properly excluded.

Thanks for sending these translations! They are now live on the Hebcal.com website!

Hi, thanks for the bug report!

You are indeed correct, this is a bug caused by a recent change. We have identified the cause and have pushed out a fix.

Hello and Shana Tova,

Do you think you might be able to contribute Ukranian translations to the Hebcal project?

The Shabbat API returns multiple events that occur during the coming week, including of course candle-lighting and Havdalah and the weekly Torah portion. It also may include events like Rosh Chodesh.

If you'd like to ignore Rosh Hashana or other holiday-related events, our general recommendation is for your application to filter the items array in the returned response, paying careful attention to items that meet your application's criteria. For example, you may be interested only in those items that have a category that matches candles, parashat, or havdalah.
