@ah4x4 I had the same problem which was solved today by @sdetweil. It seems to be a bug, see here how to correct it manually, before it ends in the release: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues/2629#issuecomment-899548844 Second point, if you do not want a countdown but the real dates for future events, set urgency: 0 as additional parameter in calender config. All the parameters are described here https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/calendar.html

@joey u must ALWAYS use module and class… this is just a web page… .time means ALL uses across the entire page… (not what you might want) you’ll note that the module content is wrapped in a div with the modulename as a classname… also the cheatsheet on css selectors https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp simple knowledge… when there is a class u want to target .classname if there is an element u want to target, NO dot and selectors are ALL occurrances of that combo across the ENTIRE page. sometimes that is very tricky to handle… and one thing I didn’t know when I wrote that other post… if u have the settings in the top right window, you can mark the whole area with the mouse and copy paste that to custom.css , not having to type it all!!. (inside the selector clause)

@djboob66 I did that and it doesn’t change anything.

I expect I am missing something simple, but since configuring my MagicMirror I am having to re-oauth both the GoogleDocs-Notes and GooglePhotos modules each week. It seems like every seven days MagicMirror stops updating both modules. Once I download the oauth code and “recertify” the tokens, it all works again for a week. Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?

@sdetweil looks like I had https set to True and that was causing an issue in addition to the other installs needed. Thanks for your help!

@sdetweil Thanks, but of course, I have complicated the issue now. I discovered that I needed to upgrade my MagicMirror. Of course, now that I have done that, it is not displaying at all. I am looking at a previous thread about this in which you helped someone else with that issue and trying to fix this. Thanks again…I could be posting another thread on working through that issue! Ha.

@oneartur unfortunately no. The module uses rainviewer.com API. The free plan only offers history data. I started to play around with windy.com and had good results on my MacBook for development, but windy’s map rendering is so heavy weight, that it did not really work stable on the raspberry pi. I also find it a pity, that MMM-RAIN-MAP does not provide a forcast. Let me know, if you find a free dataprovider to enhance that.

@sdetweil Thank you for the quick response. I made the changes and it worked.

@wn also, you should not request/fetch IN getDom()… getDom() should ONLY format data already received… so you can start a routine with a timer, or some such, and when it produces data, save the data pointer somewhere, and then call updateDom() which informs MM that new content is available from your module… MM will then call getDom() to get the updated content to display

@fozi send me trouble reports. I can’t fix it if no one tells me it’s broken mention right up front that some modules produce tricky tesults

@mumblebaj But like… It was working before? for 2 weeks or so?

@sdetweil I added some text and link to API page to better describe and locate the NWS API example. People should be better able to understand how to make that work.

It works with class. classes: { "Hide and show Calendar": { toggle: ["MMM-CalendarExt2"], }, } But there is a third possibility. I use CalendarExt2 only for one calendar in “views: []”. I copied its position under the line “modules = ‘MMM-CalendarExt2’,”. Now it is visible in the “Edit View” of MMM-Remote-Control. :)

i found the problem, in my case the “panelId” was the problem. I don’t know if the problem only occurs in Version 8 from graval or if an configuration misstake in my grafan evironments. I delete in MMM-GrafanCharts.js files the panelId in the iframe.src URL and now it works

@sdmydbr9 said in Module status: I am not able to get the state command because I couldn’t find any so my set up is incomplete. so, your statement is that the MMM-RemoteControl module does not provide a mechanism to determine if a module (by name) is hidden or not sorry, don’t know about the internals of MMM-RemoteControl

I passed this over to my brother, who is good with things like Java and CSS and got him to take a look and he has managed to fix the issue. It was the NewsFeedTicker’s CSS file that was causing all of the issues. To get round the main issue of the full article not being displayed involved placing the marquee inside an absolute position container. He then did a couple of other tweaks to get it working fully. So now when it runs it calculates the length of text to be displayed and then calculates the speed in which it needs to run to display the text over a 60 second period (as 60 seconds is what I have set as my update interval in the config file). As soon as the 60 seconds is up, the text has finished displaying and it moves on to the next article, So no more displaying the same item multiple times in a row. The only down side to this is if you use an RSS feed that displays a lot of text, it’s going to fly across the screen really fast, in order to make sure everything is displayed within 60 seconds. I’ve found most news RSS feeds have a fairly short headline and description and the speed is perfect.

Need to know what error??

Ok, I notice I’m getting a lot of spam from api.spotify.com whenever the mirror is on showing up in Pihole is there anything that I can do to stop this? i have GAv3 and Nowplayingonspotify modules more than 7-10 hits a sec.

@pierresweden said in Problem install (and config)l new modules: , it is much possible that my english is not that good, so i miss details… you should translate the pages. google translate does a decent job

@jalibu I split the difference. Most companies have something along the lines of Incorporated or Corporation hung of backside of their name, and or the corporate name is not what a company is referred to in conversation. For example BA, or as its letterhead says, The Boeing Company. Whether it is financial news or straight news, no one says “The Boeing Company”, people just refer to BA as Boeing. So I added the name back but edited each name back to what each company is called in conversation.
