Hi Bonnie, thanks for the feedback.

The Sefaria link format actually does support both start and end verses. So, for example the 5th aliyah of Bereshit is Genesis 4:19-22 and you'll see that this link is formatted as follows:

https://www.sefaria.org/Genesis.4.19-22?lang=bi&aliyot=1

If you want to print this from Sefaria, just highlight the verses and add them to a new Source Sheet. Then they will print very easily.

Hi, sorry to hear that Tikkun.io links don't copy well to Dreamweaver. This might be something that could be improved on the tikkun.io side? You can file a bug report for their site here: https://github.com/akivajgordon/tikkun.io/issues

Also, please note that if you're regularly cutting and pasting Triennial readings from Hebcal, you may wish to take a look at our downloadable CSV spreadsheets which were designed to make it easy for leyning coordinators and Bar/Bat Mitzvah tutors:

For reference for other users, we were able to diagnose this issue further.

The author appears to be running into the Let's Encrypt Certificate Authority expiry issue that is documented here:

https://letsencrypt.org/docs/dst-root-ca-x3-expiration-september-2021/

https://scotthelme.co.uk/lets-encrypt-old-root-expiration/

Hebcal's certificate itself is valid and expires in 1 month and 28 days:

However, very old operating systems or browsers need to update their CA store so they can trust the more modern Let's Encrypt signing authority.

Thanks for the feedback. We've added CSV downloads for weekday to our website

https://www.hebcal.com/sedrot/#download

You'll want to use these CSV files in conjunction with the existing Full Kriyah or Triennial spreadsheets. These new files include readings only for regular (non-holiday) Mondays and Thursdays.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal. We are sorry to hear you are having SSL certificate expired issues.

Great suggestions! We have added the tikkun.io links to the web pages for Triennial. No firm date on when we can adjust CSV files.

Shabbat shalom!

Hi Andrea, thanks for the feedback.

I understand your concern about a novice reader not understanding that the weekday Torah readings are for the week before the Shabbat. (And actually, during times of the year like right now when Shabbat coincides with a holiday or Chol HaMoed, it's sometimes more than a week before the portion is read on a Shabbat),

We'll consider modifying the pages to add the specific dates of the readings on Mondays and Thursdays to clarify.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll consider the idea of updating CSV files. We haven't seen much demand for weekday Torah readings, and adding them to the CSV files adds size and extra detail that many leyning coordinators don't want or need.

We might instead consider creating separate CSV files for Monday & Thursday (e.g. non-Shabbat, non-Holiday).

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal on Alexa and thanks for the feedback!

The candle-lighting defaulting to Shabbos is a bug, and Havdalah is a feature that we never implemented. Both are excellent things to work on. We'll leave this ticket open and update when we get around to deploying a new Alexa skill that addresses these items.

Mo'adim L'Simcha!

Hi, we have added weekday Torah readings to our parsha pages:
