MMM-Carousel (global)

[kusselin]

@sdetweil yes this i know…but can you send me here a example from a config file (not the example from gihub…)

please send me here an example config with global where you also siehr the modules that rotate!!!

[kusselin]

Ahso…do I then have to enter all modules that should not be rotated under “IgnoreModules”? Right?

And the rest of the will then be rotated…right understood?

So the ones that are not in the IgnoreList I don’t have to enter anywhere in the Config…right? But they can have different positions then…is that also correct…?

so e.g. module Covid10 is rotated and is not in the IgnoreList and has position top_center

or

MM-Fuel is also not in the IgnoreList and has e.g. position bottom_center

Is this possible? Have I understood this correctly?

[sdetweil]

@kusselin it rotates ALL modules NOT LISTED in ignorelist.

so u decide if ANY should always be shown (ignorelist)

MagicMirror can only show or hide a module, so where it is configured will be where it is shown

the GitHub example shows the clock all the time and ALL other modules one at a time

you do not have to list the modules to be shown. that list is available via software to the carousel module.

all modules must be listed in config.js like normal, but NOT in the MMM-Caruosel config:{} section

@sdetweil Hi, sorry but its not going :-(

this is my Module config of Carousel:

{
            module: 'MMM-Carousel',
            config: {
                transitionInterval: 20000,
				showPageIndicators: true,
                showPageControls: true,
                ignoreModules: ['clock', 'alert', 'MMM-ioBroker', 'MMM-RNV', 'MMM-OpenmapWeather', 'weatherforecast', 'calendar', 'newsfeed', 'MMM-Traffic', 'MMM-Fuel'],
                mode: 'global'
               
            }
        },

all modules they are not rotate are standing in the ignore list!

Three modules they are: MMM-SoccerLiveScore, MMM-COVID19-AMPEL, compliments are not standing there in ignore…these moduls have to rotate but ist not going…they are also ständing on the screen… :-(

What can i do so long??

Best regards

@kusselin

ok, i installed and used your config

like this

	{
            module: 'MMM-Carousel',
            config: {
                transitionInterval: 10000,
				showPageIndicators: true,
                showPageControls: true,
                ignoreModules: ['clock', 'alert'], 
                mode: 'global'
               
            }
        },

and it worked as expected… clock stayed on all the time,
other modules came and went…

can u look in the developers window

ctrl-shift-i on the mm keybord, select the console tab
and scroll up looking for red text (errors)

u have your set to 20 seconds between changes… (20000)… are u waiting long enough?

try shorter time just for test

[kusselin]

@sdetweil o.k. thanks for your answer…

what do you mean about “other module came and went”?
you mean your other modules you have installed right?

i musst look about a keyboard…then i will be back here again with the errors

[kusselin]

look, this coming…i had made photos…can you see anything sdetweil?

this is all what is red

MMM-Carousel is in my config standing at last…is this ok?

[sdetweil]

@kusselin came and went,

means appeared and disappeared, some change every 10 seconds. have 15 modules installed(testing modules for other user problems)

shows weather for 10 seconds
then
shows, GooglePhotos , for 10 seconds
then
shows MMM-OpenmapWeather, for 10 seconds

etc

each in their configured position: setting

[kusselin]

@sdetweil Sam, i cnat´believe it…i put this in the config too:

position: 'bottom_bar',  // Required to draw in position

and now it´s going :-) yeahhhh thanks a lot Sam !!!

so then looks like my MM-Carousel now and it´s going:

{
            module: 'MMM-Carousel',
			position: 'bottom_bar',  // Required to draw in position
            config: {
                transitionInterval: 10000,
				showPageIndicators: true,
                showPageControls: true,
                ignoreModules: ['clock', 'alert', 'MMM-SoccerLiveScore', 'MMM-OpenmapWeather', 'weather', 'MMM-Traffic', 'calendar', 'MMM-ioBroker', 'MMM-Fuel'],
                mode: 'global'
               
            }
        },

@kusselin I do not have position set in mine.

glad it’s working
