Which calendar app are you using?

Is it "Simple Calendar" by chance (or one of its forks)? I think early versions of this app lacked support, but the latest version should work, but only after enabling "CalDAV sync" (from Simple Calendar settings).

It should work automatically in Etar, or when using the default calendar app.

Simple Calendar, before reporting this as a bug I had turned on calendar storage which was made for Google I guess but "CalDAV sync" does the trick. It looks like this is not an actual Suntimes bug however the intention here was to import a full daily moon phase and Suntimes calendar is disappointing only showing quarterlys.

however the intention here was to import a full daily moon phase and Suntimes calendar is disappointing only showing quarterlys.

The four major phases are instants that occur at some specific time (easy to schedule), while the minor phases are all the moments in between. That is why they aren't part of the "moon phase" calendar.

It is possible to attach this information to other events though (like moonrise and moonset), so I've added support in v0.6.1 for %phase and illum patterns to the "moon" calendar template. Note that it requires Suntimes v0.15.11. Also, you might need to "restore defaults" to get the patterns to appear, or add them manually if you've customized the template.
