Weather module with openmeteo sends wrong Data

@TiLow awesome! As moderator here, I think my job is to help users make and keep their mirrors running. Watch for trouble and find ways to resolve it. Your clear description of the problem helped identify a good resolution. I didn’t do any of the work. Just connected the dots.

MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda not showing updates

sdetweil — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 20:04:21 GMT

@MarNog one thing about the ext3 family of modules. They get the events from the default calendar module. But the events are broadcast by url separately. Some will take longer than others. Ext3 doesn’t want to flash the screen every time it receives a block of events. It doesn’t know when the events will come. So, it has its own refreshInterval time (10 mins default), then it draws whatever it has, and then waits again But, you don’t want to wait 10 minutes for the first display , so it has a second timer waitFetch:5000, 5 second wait before drawing any events If the events arrive after 5 seconds, they dont get displayed til refreshInterval time. So, you can adjust those two to improve your viewing experience Note that longer waitFetch means more time after start before any events are displayed If you use pm2 to launch MagicMirror, it captures the log messages about startup and events being broadcast. You could examine those time stamps to determine how long each cal Might take, and use that as a guide to waitFetch time The longer waitFetch means no events are displayed after startup til waitFetch expires

@Cybex999 all you should have to do is set the color in the default calendar for each url Make sure you set coloredText:true, Before the url list

@sdetweil Yup, it’s working now. Awesome, thank you so much. (The translations/en.json is just a single word change, so easy to fix manually without being stashed.)

MMM-TitanSchoolMenu 403 Forbidden

trnitz — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 16:34:55 GMT

This is more of a FYI /fix /workaround than a troubleshooting issues/question. Recently, the api.linqconnect.com API endpoint has started blocking certain User Agents, including axios (and curl). Using a custom User Agent to impersonate an actual web browser bypasses this block. I created a pull request for this: https://github.com/evanhsu/MMM-TitanSchoolMealMenu/pull/23/changes/d35c1bd93c5953215d9cad162085cf430eed6b4c

@sdetweil tnhx mate this was very helpfull

Next release arm32 users, need your help

rkorell — Fri, 06 Mar 2026 00:12:29 GMT

Dear Sam, @sdetweil yes — my MMM-PresenceScreenControl module is one of those. It uses node-libgpiod (native C addon for GPIO/PIR sensor access), which requires @electron/rebuild to match Electron’s Node ABI. That said, the module has had an automatic fallback since v1.1.0: if node-libgpiod fails to compile or rebuild, it transparently falls back to Python/gpiozero for PIR sensor access. So it will work without a successful electron-rebuild — just via a different code path. The dependency setup (as of v1.3.1): node-libgpiod is an optionalDependency (npm continues if it fails) @electron/rebuild is not listed as a dependency — it’s installed on-demand by the postinstall script only when node-libgpiod is actually present If either fails, the module falls back to Python gracefully So for your testing: this module would be a good candidate to verify if electron-rebuild still works, but it won’t break if it doesn’t. My other modules (MMM-Globe, MMM-Best-Weather, MMM-My-Actual-Weather, etc.) are pure JavaScript — no native addons, no electron-rebuild needed. Hope this helps. Warmest regards, Ralf

MMM-BackgroundSlideshow remove imageInfo header

mrchips83 — Wed, 04 Mar 2026 13:57:02 GMT

@rkorell Thanks Ralf, tried that but still no luck! That allows me to add/remove text at the top of the module header but doesn’t allow modification of the header of the embedded ‘imageInfo box’. I’ve tried: imageInfoTitle: “test”, and imageInfoHeader: “test”, with no luck either. Searching here: https://github.com/darickc/MMM-BackgroundSlideshow suggests like it’s not configurable and I’ll just have to live with it
