Hi (and thanks for a great service)
I'm accessing memotoo calendar through the thunderbird/lightning via the icalendar URL as instructed.

Generally it works fine, but there are a couple of problems:

1) sometimes, when a reminder pops up about a meeting, hitting "dismiss" does not cause the reminder to go away completely - it keeps popping up
every couple of minutes - quite annoying

2) sometimes (maybe related to the 1st issue), lightning marks the memotoo calendar as having an error (occasionally with
an error popup "FAILED TO MODIFY CALENDAR") and then the calendar is either not accessible, or is in "error state", or is
suddenly turned to "read only"

Any help would be much appreciated, this is a great service you provide.

thanks!

Situation has got better for me with "MODIFCATION FAILED" after changing http to https but some times it fails. But list pops realy often and containing only ONE RECURSIVE event (displaying this event today and up to 21 days ago)... but it probably Lightning bug? (that event out of day's boundaries (eg. otside 8am - 9pm). gone try increase day's boundary.

Searching the Lightning bug database seems to confirm this - several users report such problems, not all of them use memotoo. This is unfortunate, since no other free Windows application comes close to Lightning in terms of viability for working with memotoo (and working directly with the memotoo web site is out of the question for me, personally, due to the lack of offline availability and the lack of possibility to start the week display on Sunday)

And I think the error popup "FAILED TO MODIFY CALENDAR" will be corrected For information, now you can start the calendar with Sunday. -> https://www.memotoo.com/my-calendar.php?rub=prefs
