          Please take a look on pm2 log
          Do you see any information there ?
          There also should be a directory under MagicMirror named state with files, does it exist ? is there any files there ? files should be mac addresses.

                Please try to use non capital letters on mac address, maybe this is the problem…
                And also, what is your home network address ? netmask ?

                  The main version was broken, sorry.

                  Just fixed and updated the git repo.
                  simply do git pull in modules/MMM-whoshome directory and it should work.

                    @yedidia - just updated and also made all the MAC addresses lower case, and now looks to be working.

                    The colours are rather muted, so it’s difficult to tell at a glance who is actually home (aside from not having a last seen line).

                    Will look into it more tomorrow, just back from a business trip and rather tired. But thanks again for the good work and useful module!

                        @yedidia - one more quick question.

                        As mentioned above, I’m trying to tweak the css to show the names for people who are present and away in different colours.
                        What I’ve done so far via custom.css is :

                        .whoshome {
                            color: lime;
                        }
                        .person-away {
                            color: red;
                        }
                        
                        

                        Which works, except it changes the title (the “Who’s Home”) as well.
                        Is there any way to do this and keep the title the original colour to match the rest of the mirror modules?

                        I tried changing .person rather than .whoshome, but then both the title and people who are home revert to the white that is defined in the css of the module itself.

                          @DarrenHill I don’t know the direct answer, but you can use the developers window element tab to see and test how to adjust the css changes

                          See the second link in my signature below for an explanation how to use the dev window

                          in css, the part before the { is called the selector clause

                          It selects the elements the stuff inside the {} will be applied to

                          I use this cheatsheet to help me remember, you can combine them

                          . Means class
                          # means id
                          No prefix means tag name
                          

                          https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.php

                          The selector ALWAYS selects ALL elements that match. So you may have to get very specific

                          I had to hide an element created by a form library

                          .possibly-hidden-tab div:nth-child(2)  > div > div >div >ul >li:only-child >a[rel*="Item%201"] {
                            display: none;
                          }

                              OK, I think I have it.
                              Using the window I confirm that the home people are using the same class (whoishome) as the title window.

                              To get that to work properly, I changed the MMM-whoishome.js line 34 from

                              html = html + '<img class="person" src="' + this.config.TRACK[this.peopleArray[i][0]].image + '"> ' + this.peopleArray[i][0] + '<BR>';
                              

                              to

                              html = html + '<img class="person" src="' + this.config.TRACK[this.peopleArray[i][0]].image + '"> <span class="person">' + this.peopleArray[i][0] + '</span><BR>';
                              

                              and then the people who are home use class person, which can then be used to configure the colour separately to the header title.

                              @yedidia - is this something worth adding into the module for better flexibility?
                              Sorry I’m not good at GH, so have no idea how to submit a PR for it.

                                This modules looks very similar to https://github.com/ianperrin/MMM-NetworkScanner

                                Also be aware that MAC-Adresses could change on modern devices through MAC-Adress Randomization

                                    @tintinmaster if you read description you can find this topic. You can deactivate it separate for every Network. At least i have no issues to keep my mac address in my home wifi.
