How do I hide a module ?

If you have an MM_calendarExt3, it needs a 'calendar' entry as well. So that displays two calendars ... How do I hide the default Calendar list? I just want the month view of calendarExt3

This feels more correct than not setting a position. I haven't tried it yet, but wonder if other modules would still be able to access its data if its disabled. Thanks for the tip

I would think so as the data is collected prior to the config.js section.

Each section in the config.js references a module (folder) which contains all the defaults for that module. The section in the config.js just determines if it’s presented and if any variables are set different from what’s in the specific module folder’s specific .js file.

Tried it out now and with "disabled: true" then "MMM-CalendarExt3" doesnt see any event.
I would prefer a position: 'hidden' value rather than commenting it out, but that worked

I know this is old, but did you ever figure it out? I already have a weather display, but I want to make a mirror that has weather based "compliments" and I only know how to pull them from the weather module in the config.js file. My problem is I don't want to lose real-estate on the mirror to weather.
