    @nwonnink this topic is old, but seems pretty comprehensive you have to setup some mechanism to run the sync on a schedule https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/5327/sync-private-icloud-calendar-with-magicmirror

    @sdetweil in the end I followed your advice and used some mechanical, metal clips to connect the mirror to the back panel. I’ll show the final result soon!

    Hi folks, I’m no expert at all and it was a lot of trial and error. I used the lower_third position because there aren’t any other modules in that position which were also moving around the screen when changing the position of MMM-Solar-Picture. Also the NASA-watermark is still there in the upper left corner of the shown solar picture. It is just hidden behind the Earth module, so that worked out for me. My config.js on a 1080p screen { module: "MMM-SolarPicture", //IGNORED position: "lower_third", config: { imageType: 'AIA 304', updateInterval: 1 * 60 * 60 * 1000, //(1 hour) maxMediaWidth: 1200, maxMediaHeight: 1200 } }, I added these lines to my custom.css .MMM-SolarPicture img { position: absolute; top: +100px; left: +1100px; opacity: 1 !important; } Good luck with moving around your sun and kind regards

    Actually your use case is what I am working on the last few weeks. Just to give you some information what I’m doing Setup my own Tailscale VPN using Headscale This gives me the option to access all machine remotely. Setup my own Ansible Server using Semaphore UI This allows me to push changes to the clients. Setup my own Rustdesk Service for remote-screen access Setup “raspberry pi connect” as fallback solution Setup of “kuma uptime” for monitoring all clients For the actual (initial) system setup I use: Bash Scripts for initial setup and installations (basiclly what is not done by Ansible) Separated into a “sudo” and “non sudo” script Ansible Playbook for 80% of software installation (Pi-Apps, Headscale-Config, some Helpers like Bash-Extentsions, uninstalling unneeded softwar, enable system services, …) Ansible Playbook for MagicMirror Installation Ansible Playbook for modules installation Ansible Playbook for some CRON Jobs There a a couple of things/tasks left, which I need to do manually Preparing the config.js because every MagicMirror installation needs a different one Optimizing the scripts and ansible playbooks. It works for me, but some parameters would be great. Many things I do not remember here :D The update process are something which I do not include in the automations. There are too many manual steps and checks to include. Apart from that I’ll try to avoid update as long as I can - never touch a running system ;)
