    @OrangeMirror the current docker setup will only work for multiple instances IF you use the MM_CONFIG_FILE environment variable to run instances off different config files, or the MM_PORT env variable to override the port if using the same config.js all the files will come from the ONE folder tree ~/magicmirror so this means you would have to setup multiple entries in the compose.yaml to launch multiple instances (with the different config parms) You have to change the container name too this is because all the DATA used by the container is external (on docker host filesystem) and not IN the container an example NOT using docker, but same idea here https://docs.magicmirror.builders/configuration/introduction.html#advanced-configuration-and-frequently-asked-how-to-configure-examples

    @Stoffbeuteluwe looks like its not configurable, in the providers/???.js file (looking at ESPN.js) status.push(moment(game.competitions[0].date).tz(localTZ).format("h:mm a")); u could enhance the module and offer it back to the author with this option configurable

    Hi, I built a MM running on Win10 for the kids showing agenda, weather, and news headlines. Now my wife would like one in the kitchen. Not a MIrror, but an information screen to replace our paper calendar. What she’s asking for ideally is a calendar display, with a touch interface to show the daily agenda. If it could also somehow display a recipe on request that would be awesome. Is something like this possible with MM on a PI, and what kind of hardware would I need? Tks!

    @Fr8Trayne Hmm, I thought I added all the ones I thought were worth offering. Thank you for your kind words. You absolutely should give it a go. I came to this forum with no knowledge of coding, none, zilch. There are some great online resources and there are some fantastic people here that can lend you a hand. It is tremendously rewarding and fun, at least for this old man.

    @Sean said in How to add an up counter with years, months, weeks, days: @CaramelCase set “unit” field to "years"or "seconds"or any other units you want. I want it to show years, months and days. No just one unit.

    @hungns35 sure… do it the same way… my MMM-SleepWake module allows some external motion detector to signal start/stop motion, and can hide modules, use dpms or pi tvservice. I use the github motion project to monitor the camera for motion

    @Snow_white Yes, I use it more than my phone because it’s always on and is in the hallway. Mine is always on, I just turn off the screen during night-time. The real benifit is when you are more than one person in the household… you don’t have to look at like five different apps for each person’s phone, the mirror just shows an overview of it all. For the other modules I did not mention… The default clock calendar_monthly Weather forecast Next bus departure MMM-MyCommute National soccer league standings

    @Betialai I suppose you must change the slideInterval parameter on the module config. By default it’s configured to change every 5 minutes: slideInterval 5 * 60 * 1000 If you change that value for this one: slideInterval 10080 * 60 * 1000 It must be change every 7 days. 7 x 24 = 168 hours a week. 168 x 60 = 10080 minutes a week. Hope it helps
