      Thank you guys for your tips and help. Now I only have one issue left.

      How do I get the icons in the right place?

          @sdetweil I had taken the section to see the Custom.css and weather.css on the right side. Shouldn’t the wallpaper actually be displayed?

            @svenpisa as I said, confused.

            in custom.css do

            html {
               cursor: default;
            }
            

            to turn on the mouse pointer over the mm content

            then easier to see to select correct content

              Is the screenshot better?

                @svenpisa yes, better.

                so that stuff for .weathericon from custom.css, I would click off each and see the effect.

                as you mouse over the settings in the right column a checkbox will appear, that u can check to disable a setting

                note .weather-icon applies to ALL of the icons.

                the css selector clause (stuff before the {) WILL ALWAYS match every such item on the page. you can make it more specific to get fewer elements.

                  Thank you very much for your help.
                  I first had to read through your messages at my leisure and at the same time I tried to understand the messages parallel to the developer tool.

                  And lo and behold, it worked.

                  0e90df8a-da41-4c3f-b2b7-c4d7e5436f24-image.png

                  I have now split the weather module into two classes.

                  		{
                  			module: "weather",
                  			classes: "forecast",
                  			position: "top_right",
                  			header: "Wettervorschau",
                  			config: {
                  				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
                  				type: "forecast",
                  				location: "Hamburg",
                  				locationID: "2911xxx", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
                  				apiKey: "c64bb3321848fe4e76163xxxxxxxxxc"
                  			}
                  		},
                  		{
                  			module: "weather",
                  			classes: "wetter",
                  			position: "top_center",
                  			config: {
                  				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
                  				type: "current",
                  				location: "Hamburg",
                  				locationID: "2911xxx", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
                  				apiKey: "c64bb3321848fe4e76163xxxxxxxxx"
                  			}
                  		},
                  

                  You could then play around really well with each class in the developer tool and then find the right position.

                  For those who are interested. I have now made the following entries in the Custom.css so that it looks like this:

                  .forecast .weathericon {
                  position:absolute;	// absolute
                  z-index: 0;
                  height: 200px;
                  right: 120px;
                  margin-top: -65px; 
                  padding-left: 60px;
                  padding-top: 50px;
                  height: 35px;
                  }
                  
                  .forecast .wi-day-sunny {
                  content: url("/css/icons/day.svg");
                  }
                  
                  .forecast .wi-day-cloudy {
                  content: url("/css/icons/cloudy-day-1.svg");
                  }
                  
                  .forecast .wi-rain {
                  content: url("/css/icons/rainy-6.svg");
                  }
                  
                  forecast .wi-night-clear {
                  content: url("/css/icons/night.svg");
                  }
                  
                  .forecast .wi-night-cloudy {

                  padding-right: 15px;

                  }
                  
                  .forecast .wi-cloudy {

                  }

                      I have this issue too, the dev window says they’re the same class
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.42.19 PM.png
                      but the classes are already different/labeled as forecast and weather in config
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.43.19 PM.png
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.43.27 PM.png

                      when I open everything in the developer window,
                      this is the one that highlights the icon I want to move “</span> == $0”
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.47.41 PM.png

                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 4.03.40 PM.png
                      the current weather “sun” icon in the top module is the one I want to move,
                      but its labeled as the current weather condition, NOT the icon I want to move
                      when I uncheck the one I need, both icons from current weather and “today” from forecast both change
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.50.51 PM.png
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.48.32 PM.png

                      it’s labeled as “weather weather” , when I change that, they both change (current weather and forecast)
                      Screenshot 2024-03-30 at 3.50.03 PM.png

                      what am I doing wrong?

                          @greedyvegan yes, they are the same, that is why you need to add unique classes per my previous post, OR use the id value in custom css as the primary selector

                          #module_{number}_module-name

                            ok, so since this isn’t working, do I change the item “classes” or “type” ?

                            let’s say I change it to “weatherDAY” and “weatherWEEK”
                            in the css do I change it to

                            .weatherDAY .weathericon {
                            .weatherWEEK .weathericon {
                            

                            so on and so forth?

                              I also saw you say IF you choose the module number, be careful when adding modules because the number will change.

                                      @greedyvegan what didnt work?

                                      remember the thing before the {
                                      is the selector clause,

                                      it selects the elements the stuff after the { will apply to

                                      i use this cheatsheet to help me build the selector clause

                                          you noticed the dot in front of the class name , right?

                                          . means element class (html class="foo", .foo) 
                                          # means element id  (html id="module_0_clock", #module_o_clock)
                                          nothing means html element (html img, body, div...)
                                          

                                          in MM if you want to select elements in A module, then you would select the content starting with its id (#module_…) its classname (.modulename) or one of the classes specified in the classes:“xxx yyy”, property for that module

                                            yes, other modules are easier to me because it’s only one focus

                                            nothing means html element (html img, body, div…)

                                            this confused me

                                            believe me, I’m trying to understand.
                                            I’m also trying everything I read/see for hours before reaching out for help

                                            in config, I chose to uniquely identify the two weather “classes”
                                            however the developer window mentions “class”
                                            it also says “class=module weather weather” for both weather modules.
                                            Screenshot 2024-03-31 at 5.31.20 PM.png I think THIS is why modifying one modifies both.

                                            the weather.js file says .currentWeather & .forecastWeather
                                            the weather.css file doesn’t differentiate current & forecast classes. I’ve even read the current & forecast njk files for individual class indicators…

                                            in custom.css I’m trying any and everything I see to individually identify and separate #module_5_weather from #module_6_weather

                                            I feel like my focus is in the wrong place(s) and i’m overlooking something extremely simple
