Month view weekday labels cropped

The bottom of the text for each weekday (eg Mon, Tue) on the month and two week views are cropped slightly when using the extension, as per the screenshot:

This is not the case with the extension disabled, nor on the single week view. Someone else also mentioned this in a review so it may not be limited to my environment.

Google Calendar Dark mode

Hello. Now the web version has a dark mode, the extension make all calendar white instead of just changing the weekend.
I am using Chrome version 130.0.6723.70 with MacOS Sequoia 15.0.1.
I really appreciate this extension. Thank you very much 😊

Chrome on Windows - Not working properly on Month view

Hello Riccardo
Was about to uninstall the extension, but seeing as you seem pretty active here I just wanted to reise this: I'm having the same issues as others have mentioned: on Month view, only a small stripe at the top of the weekends are highlighted. Works fine on other views.

Not sure if I'm able to upload an image here, but I added some to imgur, hope it works: https://imgur.com/a/dlKqPgP

Chrome on Mac;- works in week view but month view only has a strip over the columns.

Hey Riccardo,

In month view, I only see a small strip across the top of the weekend columns. Week view works fine. Just giving you a heads-up, it looks as though some other users are already deep into it.

Chrome 23.0.6312.107 (Official Build) (x86_64)
OSX 11.7.4

cheers,

Dan.

The Extension is not working since this morning - The Return

Hi Riccardo,

Sorry to bother you but it's happening again...
Everything was working fine since your last update and this morning it's not anymore...
I use GSuite for work so I can't change it but I hate so much Google for those kinds of things...
Here is the current Chrome version I have : Version 122.0.6261.70 (Build officiel) (64 bits).
Could you please have a look at the problem?
Regards.

Not working in month view?

Hi Riccardo,
The extension doesn't seem to be working in month view for me. Though works fine in day/week/4 day views.
All I can see are small colored divs which only cover a small amount of Sat 3rd + Sun 4th of Feb for me. None of the other weekends in the month are colored. Have tried reinstalling...
Kind regards,
M

The Extension is not working since this morning

Hi Riccardo,

The Extension was working perfectly for me for several monthes but this morning it suddenly stopped.
Could it be linked to a Chrome update? I'm on the latest Version 121.0.6167.140 (Build officiel) (64 bits).
I tried to set up back my parameters but it didn't worked.

Could you please help?

Tried to reply to your comment but think I marked it as spam by accident

I don't think your tone was very nice to me. I didn't know I could contact the developer. You didn't need to be rude to me. You don't know me. I thought I was doing a good thing by letting other people know it didn't work. I didn't know the publisher was still about. Some of these things get abandoned some times. I tried again and it still didn't work.

Publish the donation link on the extension description

It's a bit difficult to find it through the extension icon, right click etc. Would be useful to put the link somewhere visible so people can donate. Thanks once again!
