Google Calendar Weekend Highlighter Extension

>>>>>>>>> Important NOTE!!! <<<<<<<<<<<
If it doesn't work, before giving a low rating contact me via the Assistance Channel or via Mail: I will work with you to solve the issue!

>>>>>>>>>>>>> DONATE! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
If you LIKE THIS EXTENSION, please consider a DONATION (LINK is in OPTIONS PAGE or you find it if you RIGHT CLICK over extension icon!). A coffee will be just fine! :D

>>>>>>>>>>>>> LET'S GO DARK! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Works with Calendar's DARK MODE too! The extension AUTOMATICALLY detects dark mode and renders in a dark fashion the colours you chose! Yay! :)

Choose custom colours FOR EACH of your week's days! Those days will be coloured with your custom background colours, finally highlighting your week in ALL the \"views\" of the NEW version of Google Calendar web pages (2018 and further)! If you prefer NOT to highlight a day, simply leave it WHITE.
At first install, you will be automatically redirected to options page, where you will have to choose your Google Calendar's page language (MANDATORY), and the colours for all your days. In OPTIONS page you can now donate me a coffee, too! :)
NOTE: sometimes while working it could stop highlighting the weekend columns; in that case, try to click on an empty space on the calendar or press F5 (refresh page) and the weekend columns will be correctly light up again!

David (ID: 000000a5cb054319) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/21/2023 works as supposed. as mentioned you need to move one view further and back to get it applied to the current view.

Julien BERTAULT (ID: 000000cde4462fee) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/26/2023 Works fine, minus Google Calendar refresh bug (just jump to another week/month) and it will show.

lee marco (ID: 00000042772d9bd6) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/10/2023 sorry, but it doesn't work for me too. I tried to clean the cache and cookies, and reinstall again and again. Well, finally I GIVE IT UP NOW........

Steven Harriss (ID: 000000175e33c5f8) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/01/2022 I just can't seem to get it to work - I've changed the settings to every combination I can think of but nothing ever changes on the calendar - a complete waste of time. I really can't think what I'm doing wrong as there isn't much to configure.
