Is there an addon for german holidays? Or: If I give you a list, can anyone make an addon?

You mean for the calendar entries ?

You can add them with manage holidays area, granted that can get to be tedious if its one of those the first Monday after a full moon on leap years kind of one.

Otherwise you can add them with phpmyadmin with something like

Code: [Select]

INSERT INTO elkarte_calendar_holidays
	(title, event_date)
VALUES ('Weizenbier Day', '0004-01-02'),
	('Hefeweizen Day', '0004-01-03'),
	('Märzen Day', '0004-01-04'),
	('Doppelbock Day', '0004-01-05'),
	('Bock and Bratwurst Day', '0004-01-06')

use 0004 for ones that are the same date each year, or if its a moving target you have to add it for each entry like

Code: [Select]

	('Winter Solstice', '2014-12-21'),
	('Winter Solstice', '2015-12-21'),
	('Winter Solstice', '2016-12-21'),
	('Winter Solstice', '2017-12-21')

Anyway, if we have them, build a package is not difficult at all.

Nice, but they should be listed in german, not in english.

Here they are:

Depending on the federal state you live in, there are between 9 and 13 public holidays in Germany every year. Public holidays in Germany include national holidays, of which there are only two, as well as religious holidays and secularized holidays with a religious background.
