      @tidus5 its never a good idea to manipulate modules code, but after reviewing this module there is no chance to avoid it to have custom buttons. The module owner should change this to config options.

      I came up with this solution to center them

      custom.css

      .MM-navbar .center {
        left: 50%;
        -webkit-transform: translate(-50%);
      }
      

      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

        I have already tested some things and still didnt update and pushed to git.

        The problem with the creation of buttons out of the config is a for/while that still doesn’t work. Also i would need a library for icons.

        Ur proplem was indeed an issue, will fix this within git.

          @strawberry-3.141 did a little change on my custome.css in MagicMirror/css. Now its working very well.

          Heres the code:

          .MM-navbar .center {
          width: 100%;
          text-align: center;
          left: 0px;
          }

              Hey @chrisyy - hope you are well.
              Since the update i have a problem with the hide/show all butt - function not recognized in this line

              			MM.getModules().exceptWithClass('MM-navbar').exceptWithClass('MMM-ShipmentTracking').exceptWithClass('clock').enumerate(function(module){
              

              and now the weather and the current weather are not hide at startup - do you have the same problem ?

                @shashank u would need to have 2 of them installed, lets say one is Mail-Gmail, the second is Mail-Hotmail

                @tidus5 until now i haven’t tested it and im moving to a new place, so i my mirror aswell as my server is laying in a box right now. I saw that in the new version, there are visibility-locking options. Maybe this will have to do something with it. As soon as it is possible for me to do something, i will take a look and hopefully can fix this.
                second thing: u should not make 3x exceptwithclass, do one and separate the modules with commata.

                  I think this module is very cool! My present build is non-touch so I made some small additions (informed by @GinSeng in another thread) and I’m currently using voice to trigger the Navbar. Love it! I’ll be happy to provide code or details if anybody is interested.

                  What ship would bear me ever back across so wide a Sea?

                      Hi @chrisyy thank you for this awesome module!
                      Only problem is that with this module on, the Hide/show all module disappeared. How can I fix it?
                      Thanks!

                        For sure. Forgive me if there are several steps.

                        First thing is to install this module

                        https://github.com/alexyak/voicecontrol

                        Go to your MagicMirror/modules folder and type

                        git clone https://github.com/alexyak/voicecontrol.git

                        Then install dependencies with

                        sudo apt-get install python-pyaudio python3-pyaudio sox

                        Next, install the navbar. Again, make sure you are in the MagicMirror/modules folder and type

                        git clone https://github.com/chr1syy/MM-navbar.git

                        Then you will need to go to this website and define your voice commands.

                        https://snowboy.kitt.ai/

                        Keep track of the keywords you define and the filenames you produce. Each keyword/command will require you to download a .pmdl file that needs to be copied into the MagicMirror folder on your Pi. I’m only using 3 commands so far - calendar, newsfeed, and weather.

                        Still with me? Sweet! Lets configure config.js. Go to the MagicMirror/config folder and

                        nano config.js

                        Assuming you know where to place a new module in this file, add the navbar module with

                                    {
                                            module: 'MM-navbar',
                                            position: 'fullscreen_above'
                                    },
                        

                        Next we will add the voice control call to the same config.js file. There are a couple variables here that will depend on the keywords and filenames you used on the snowboy site. Here is the code I use

                                  {
                                            module: 'voicecontrol',
                                            position: 'bottom_right',
                                            config: {
                                                    models: [
                                                                    {
                                                                            keyword: "Calendar",
                                                                            description: "Say 'Calendar' to toggle display",
                                                                            file: "calendar.pmdl",
                                                                            message: "CALENDAR"
                                                                    },
                                                                    {
                                                                            keyword: "Newsfeed",
                                                                            description: "Say 'Newsfeed' to toggle display",
                                                                            file: "newsfeed.pmdl",
                                                                            message: "NEWSFEED"
                                                                    },
                                                                    {
                                                                            keyword: "Weather",
                                                                            description: "Say 'Weather' to toggle display",
                                                                            file: "weather.pmdl",
                                                                            message: "WEATHER"
                                                                    }
                                                            ]
                        
                                                    }
                                    },
                        

                        Note that the keyword and file need to match the keyword and filenames you used on your Snowboy files. Save and quit out of config.js and we’ll hit the last step. We need to make a couple changes to the navbar code. Navigate to MagicMirror/modules/MM-navbar then

                        nano MM-navbar.js

                        First change is at line 13. Right now lines 12-19 look like this

                        notificationReceived: function(notification, payload, sender){
                        	if (notification === 'DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED'){
                        		MM.getModules().exceptModule(this).exceptWithClass('clock').enumerate(function(module){
                        			module.hide(1000, function(){
                        			});
                        		});
                        	}
                        },
                        

                        You will need to modify it to look like this

                            notificationReceived: function(notification, payload, sender){
                                    if (notification === "CALENDAR"){
                                            var calendarbutton = document.getElementById('calendar-button');
                                            calendarbutton.click();
                                    }
                                    if (notification === "NEWSFEED"){
                                            var newsbutton = document.getElementById('news-button');
                                            newsbutton.click();
                                    }
                                    if (notification === "WEATHER"){
                                            var weatherbutton = document.getElementById('weather-button');
                                            weatherbutton.click();
                                    }
                            },
                        

                        Now we’re going down to the section that originally starts on line 32

                        	wrapper.className = "center";
                        	weatherbutton.className = "wi wi-day-rain-mix navbar";
                        	calendarbutton.className = "fa fa-calendar navbar";	
                        	newsbutton.className = "fa fa-newspaper-o navbar";		
                        

                        And change it to

                                    wrapper.className = "center";
                                    weatherbutton.className = "wi wi-day-rain-mix navbar";
                                    weatherbutton.id = 'weather-button';
                                    calendarbutton.className = "fa fa-calendar navbar";
                                    calendarbutton.id = 'calendar-button';
                                    newsbutton.className = "fa fa-newspaper-o navbar";
                                    newsbutton.id = 'news-button';
                        

                        Save, close and restart your MM and you should have a working, voice responsive nav bar. I know there are kind of a lot of steps here and typos and omissions are entirely possible. If you have any problems let me know and I’ll try to help. Cheers!
