Does anyone know how to make the iFrame module refresh periodically?

PeppaPigKilla

on the config part I believe its just the URL. But on the iframe.js file, i think extra code would needed to be added.


/* global Module */

/* Magic Mirror
 * Module: iFrame

 */

Module.register("iFrame",{
		// Default module config.
		defaults: {
				height:"300px",
				width:"100%"
		},


	// Override dom generator.
	getDom: function() {
		var iframe = document.createElement("IFRAME");
		iframe.style = "border:0"
		iframe.width = this.config.width;
		iframe.height = this.config.height;
		iframe.src =  this.config.url;
		return iframe;
    window.setInterval("reloadIFrame();", 30000);

function reloadIFrame() {
 document.frames["frameNameHere"].location.reload();
}
	}

});

Sorry the forum seems to be overloaded. I put this in my code and still no refreshing. I believe the problem is my iFrame does not have a specified name. I am only able to input the scr=“URL”. Not sure where to put iframe name = “name”. When generating an iFrame from google sheets it does not specify a name either.
