If you want to place the calendar to the bottom or any other place of your desktop do this:
1. Open file named calendar.rc with your favorite text editor;
2. Find these line:
alignment tr
and change tr by any of these values: top_left, top_right, top_middle, bottom_left,
bottom_right, bottom_middle, middle_left, middle_middle, middle_right, or none
(also can be abreviated as tl, tr, tm, bl, br, bm, ml, mm, mr).
See also gap_x and gap_y on the Conky Documentation Pages: [link]

jejej ok, my english is very bad, but I'll try to explain as best as possible.
How do I change the color only to the current date, more precisely the number and only the number? Thanks
