@Axnick9 said in Weatherforecast Module Help: And is there any way to get around this without paying- perhaps a different service that offers the same thing? You could try another weather module in the meantime. There are many of them. https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/MagicMirror²-Modules#3rd-party-modules

@red43 said in Partial install of magic mirror module: were you able to solve the problem with wifi connection as it seems like the closest occurrence of the issue? I quote myself: " I was not able to restore functionality to my Pi, even after wiping my SD card and installing Jessie." You might want to re-read my entire post above your question, Especially if you are considering Stretch as your OS

@kiki99 I think it might be related with electron. You can pipe whole electron console output to file or others. But I didn’t test. Check this. https://github.com/dustinblackman/winston-electron/blob/master/README.md

Hi lavolp, Thanks very much for your reply. I appreciate you replying to me so quickly, I’m very new to all of this and I’ve never used code before. This is all a big learning curve, I’m also dyslexic which does not help. I’ve seen loads of videos and read loads of information on setting up the magic mirror, but none of then make it clear. They either use code that they expect people to know already and also use lots of different terms that mean nothing to me. I wish there was a book or PDF available that told you every single step in an easy way to for people new to this like me that struggle to take things. I really like to learn but unfortunately being dyslexic, it does take me a little longer to learn and take on board what things mean. You have been a great help so far. I wish there was a course on the Raspberry Pi for people with learning disability’s and dyslexia that you could go on, that would teach you all these things. The videos are great but unfortunately when you come up against a problem, there’s no way of moving forward. So thank goodness for this website/forum. Please explain what does sudo mean? What are you running on your Raspberry Pi? So I typed in what you said and I got this: pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt --fix-broken install Reading package lists...

What are the main updates to do regularly? sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade I’m not sure what it all means it says it’s installed by how do I start it? I just need a step by step guide from setting up the raspberry pi from scratch to how to install MagicMirror2 What is the difference between Raspbian Stretch and jessie ? I know it’s asking a lot but if there’s anyone out there will to do this for somebody less competent so they can learn I would be grateful. Just please reply in your own time, I’m just great full that someone is happy to help. I just want a better understanding of how it all works so I can make sense of it all in an easy way. Many Thanks IDCreate

It won’t help you because I changed some stuff myself… could you point me to the path direction of this local files ?

@WoozieMoo { module: "clock", position: "top_left", config: { timezone: 'Etc/GMT-5' } } but if this is your actual timezone, then you just should change the timezone settings on your pi itself

How would I do that?? Sorry again I’m quite new at this…

@Mykle1 Thanks everyone, got it all together, got the New York Times feed at the bottom, interesting quotes in the middle. Time, date, calendar on left top. Weather top right. Now on to find a screen.

@Mykle1 Thanks, I was looking there, but now I see the “Source code (zip)” link! I just replaced the calendar module and now it is back to the way I want it.

@axellejamous said in How to MANUALLY install MM on your Pi. For absolute beginners.: @slametps Yeah had to do the same! But I downgraded to 1.7.9, so I’ll change it to 1.6.10 now thank you! :) Glad to hear that. I just realize an issue with language translations is not working in default modules such as current-weather. Is anyone here experience same issue?

I know nothing about this module in general, but your entry doesn’t seem to conform to the norm. You could try this: { module: 'MMM-OnScreenMenu', position: 'bottom_right', /* Valid positions: 'top_right', 'top_left', 'bottom_right', 'bottom_left' */ config: { touchMode: true, enableKeyboard: true, } },

@QNimbus Hi, I have a Youless and would like to display the energy consumption on my mirror. I’ve installed module, but when I execute there is nothing on the screen, so I ran in dev mode and noticed this error: “Error on loading script: modules/MMM-YouLEss/jsGauge/lib/jsGauge.js” indeed when I look in the directory, jsGauge, this is empty - no script. After install, I ran "$ cd MMM-YouLess && npm install --only=production. but when doing this, it gives me following mmm-youless@0.1.1 postinstall /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-YouLess cd jsGauge && npm install && npm run minify and this keeps repeadingly running - so after getting 30 times or more this message I’ll stopped. can you take a look at the installation procedure. I would like to have this up & running thx

Re: Using the Raspberry Pi Camera to see through the mirror What module is used to use the pi-camera and capture a picture or video?

@lavolp3 i missed the most recent MMM-Updated. I did a backup and reinstalled MagicMirror. It’s working again.

This may be a personal problem but I wanted to ask. I can’t get this web page to load anything other than the first page of any particular type of modules. When I click on pages 2-whatever, it flashes the pages at me and then reloads page 1. Any idea what’s going on here? Thanks, Craig

You could create a fork and have a branch within this repo referencing the original master branch. Using git different branches can have different remotes. (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15775183/git-different-remote-for-each-branch). In this case if the master branch of the original project is updated you can pull these changes and merge them into your own fork’s branch. There could of course be merge conflicts which you would have to resolve. If you feel you have made changes which more people could benefit of, it would be easier to contact the original developer.

Hi folks, I’m trying my best to sort this out but can’t seem to get it. I’m looking to change the display language of the clock module without changing the language of everything else. Is it even possible? I figure it must be… Anyway, thanks so much for the help

And does it work? I made a test using { module: "calendar", position: "top_left", maximumEntries: 8, config: { calendars: [ { symbol: "calendar", url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics" }, { symbol: "bell", url: "https://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/75/UK_Holidays.ics", maximumEntries: 4 }, { symbol: "home", url: "https://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/52/Islam_Holidays.ics" } ], } }, and the symbols look OK: [image: 1508900223218-mm.png]

@aayush447 Serveronly is included with the MagicMirror framework. What it does is skip displaying the interface on the Raspberry Pi via Electron and the HDMI video output. You can still see the interface by pointing a web browser (especially the browser included with the Raspberry Pi operating system) at the Pi. But the Pi itself will still display the desktop and/or command prompt. This is especially useful for people who remote in to their Pi for development, multiple displays or remote access. For example, you could have one Pi run the MagicMirror framework and have a mirror in your bathroom, a display in your kitchen and a display in your man cave all showing the same output of the Pi. I use node serveronly during my development on my office PC. It lets me use a web browser to view the interface, which I can resize, move to a different monitor, etc. Otherwise, Electron would take over one entire monitor to display the output of the Magic Mirror framework.
