I am getting this on multiple of my computers with this add on (but I don’t get it on one computer). It only happens when I go to close Anki or switch profiles.

Likely because of the anki version you’re using, I’ll test it myself on 2.1.29 and see if i can get it to work
After looking at the code:
File: anki/qt/aqt/mediasrv.py
167: def _redirectWebExports(path):
...
199: return aqt.mw.col.media.dir(), path
This happened because the col object was closed (None). @dae do we need to handle this?
I’ll push a fix later today

Not necessarily a problem, but is there any way to change the text color of the events listed on the deck page?
@cheesypancakes
If you want to do this, go into the add-on’s files and open __init__.py.
Replace:
content.stats += "<br>" + bold(str(daysLeft)) + " days until " + exam
With:
content.stats += "<br>" + """<span style="color: put_your_colour_here">""" + bold(str(daysLeft)) + " days until " + exam + """</span>"""
Enjoy 
exactly what I wanted! Thank you so much!
@sam
Is there any way to hide the “Events + settings button” that’s displayed above the countdown? Great idea, and thank you.
Hi, yes this is possible. Access __init__.py as described above. Then, this line of code needs to be removed.
content.stats += """<br><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{}/styles.css"/><h3 style="display: inline-block;margin: 0 20px" >Events</h3> <div class="settings-btn" onclick='pycmd(\"add-new-event\");'><img src="{}/images/settings.png"></div>""".format( base_url, base_url)
Without this code, you will not be able to access the settings and add new events, so I would reccomend commenting the code out (by putting a # in front of each line) rather than deleting it. Then when you want the settings back, remove the comment(s).
Let me know if you have any problems

That’s beautiful, thank you! I went ahead and just put a # in front of the lines and it worked like a charm! If it’s not too much hassle, could you tell me how I could keep a space between the “studied X cards in Y seconds today” and the countdown timer?
Right now it looks like this:
Studied 0 cards in 0 seconds today (Os/cards)
1 day until event
I’d like it to be
Studied 0 cards in 0 seconds today (Os/cards)
1 day until event
Just a space between the two. Thank you, Sam.
Yep. On the next line (after the commented code), copy and paste this:
content.stats += "<br>"
No problem

I got it to work, thank you!
I keep getting this error when I open my Anki program. Can’t seem to figure out what it might be. Do you think you would be able to help out?
Thank you!

I’ll check it out, but I’ll need you to send me the add-on folder with its contents.
If you can attach it here then do that, otherwise email me: anki.sam [at] outlook.com

Good job, I love this add-on! 
Unfortunately I found out that the data of this add-on does not synchronize between devices. Is there any chance you could enable syncing event data via the AnkiWeb account?
I have no experience in add-on development and I don’t know if this is possible or easy to implement. Also the documentation on addon-docs.ankiweb.net seems a bit lackluster. But I can see references to a synchronized storage in this other project in class ConfigManager(object).
It would be a great option to be able to simply edit the event text and or date

Hello, thank you a lot for this really useful addon.
Just a little question/suggestion: is there a way to edit existing events?

Thank you! No, not at the moment. Although I will add that feature soon.

I am on Anki 2.1.35 on PC (Windows 10) - option to sort by date ascending/descending not showing.
Addon always asks for update in Addon settings and then nothing happens.
