        @rkorell ok, just wanted to make sure nothing else was going on. github will only allow a user to pin 6 repos on their home page. i have at least 20 things i would pin

        i also don’t see anything in your list that would be sending hide requests

        i am driving all day today, so i may try to find a debug strategy

        my idea is to install MMM-logging, which takes the messages from the browser side and adds them to the messages from the server/node helper side

        and then i will give a debug message about which source called hide

        but im not sure that will tell us

          Dear Sam @sdetweil ,
          no hurry.
          It is definitely not urgent!

          Have a safe trip!
          I’ve added MMM-logging but cannot see a difference …

          Warmest regards,
          Ralf

              :-) yes for sure.
              But I had assumed that the already given output (from other modules as well) will change …

                @rkorell i added some debug for suspending, resuming, and getdom() if suspended

                git pull to update

                add debug:true
                to the config options

                you will see the output from mmm-logging

                who calls before we suspend ?

                  git pull has worked, debug is enabled.
                  Surprisingly enough today in the morning birthdaylist is NOT disappeared.
                  This exactly is the kind of error I like most: Unpredictable and not reproducable :-(

                  Thanks anyway for your really great support (I’m pretty sure you do have more than enough other things to do …)

                  Checking the console output the “debug” switch works - a lot more of information is showing up.
                  Several module notifications are received from your module and broadcasted in log.
                  One single “conspicuousness”: undefined is in init! in line 48 of birthdaylist.js :

                  (Log.log(this.name + " is in init!");)
                  

                  The “suspended” status (and therefore “hidden” (??) ) is reached several times - I guess caused by MMM-Pir ? - at least it corresponds definitely with turning off the screen by MMM-Pir.

                  Warmest regards,
                  Ralf

                    The suspending call seems indeed to come from MMM-Pir.
                    But there is always a resuming…

                    I assume that we have to wait until birthdaylist disappears and then check the written logs afterwards if there is something different (I guess: NOT :-(. )

                    Ralf

                        @rkorell notifications are broadcast. so every module gets every broadcast.

                        thats why you have to check if the broadcast is for you , but logging them all can give an idea what is going on.

                        if clock seconds was enabled you would see a notification for that too

                          @sdetweil clock seconds are enabled, as far as I know …
                          at least I haven’t found a parameter to enable/disable seconds
                          and second hand is shown …

                            @rkorell you are using the analog clock, not digital

                            this for digital

                            displaySeconds	Display seconds.
                            
                            Possible values: true or false
                            Default value: true
                            

                            and I didn’t see this change

                            sendNotifications	Enable notifications for elapsed time. Used to be always done send prio to v2.23
                            
                            Possible values: true, or false

                              @sdetweil Yeah…
                              You’re right.
                              I’ve set this - my type of clock is set to “both” because I like sunset and day of week information.

                              This causes an error in your module…

                              birthdaylist.js:398 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'startsWith')
                                  at Class.getBD_DAY_from_Date (birthdaylist.js:398:9)

                              Not sure if this corresponds with the displaySeconds parameter but seen this error first time…

                                No, obviously NOT…
                                I’ve now added “sendNotifications: true” to config.
                                Mirror reloads and your module starts without this error message.

                                  @rkorell can i see your birthdaylist config

                                  and the date portion of one birthday from the list, which order the date info is in

                                  and this error is trying to check if tye month part starts w a 0
                                  and i figure out which date separator you used
                                  /, or :, or just not ,
                                  and then i split the date with the separator i discovered, they all HAVE to be the same separator and order

                                      Ahh…
                                      in the code listing it shows up a difference …
                                      “10/6/95, 2. Hochzeitstag”
                                      with an additional space and a dot…
                                      is this a problem?
                                      I can change the taxt and delete space if nacessary (althoug I mean I’ve read that you are truncing entries …
                                      But the dot could be eliminated if useful.

                                        interesting enough the error shows up first time as I reported - the list is always the same - literally unchanged until first day of installation…

                                            @rkorell I don’t see the error… can you show me the bdlist config

                                            also, that line of code would only happen is there WAS a birthday to display
                                            and your list doesn’t have one for tomorrow or later (in this month)
                                            are for next month…

                                            still don’t see the error…
                                            my code strips off the extra leading space on the name field.
