MMM-horoscope - daily horoscope

Maxzovirax

Hello, I am trying to have 2 horoscopes run on the mirror, one foe my wife and one for my daughter, unfortunately if I repeat the module twice in the config.jf file it will only display the text of the first loaded horoscope. That is twice the Leo sign. Is there a way to have two. My plan is to use the the scheduler ot the profile switcher on a later date. I hope it is possible. that would be the last touch to my mirror.

@Maxzovirax Good point. It will not work with 2 modules running simultaneously because they both will pick up same broadcast message from node_helper.js. I wonder if modification of the module to allow display of multiple horoscope predictions in the same module would be sufficient. It will take a bit of time to do that modification and I’m going on a small vacation tomorrow. I will think on how it can be addressed. Thanks for bringing it up.

@Maxzovirax A quick fix might be to

Copy the MMM-horoscope folder and rename it to MMM-horoscope2
Open the MMM-horoscope.js file and change the lineModule.register("MMM-horoscope",{
to Module.register("MMM-horoscope2",{

Save it, and then rename MMM-horoscope.js to MMM-horoscope2.js

Then in your config change one of the module names from MMM-horoscope to MMM-horoscope2

Now reboot the MM2

If it doesn’t work, delete the copied folder, change your config back and wait for morozgrafix

@broberg Good idea, should have thought of that myself :-) , will give it a go and tell

@broberg That does it … but would still be nicer in a single module… Thanks :-) my girls will be happy

@broberg also you need to change the css file to the same module name ref. otherwize the format of the second horoscope will not look nice !

@morozgrafix I found this thread while I’m searching for some possibilities to show a German horoscope. I tried to reuse the newsfeed module, but javascript is not my friend ;) I found a source to a German rss feed at t-online. Now I cant post the link, the forum marks it as spam. Are you interested, can I send you the link via PM?

Did you try adding it to the config entry of the newsfeed module? If the link is to an .ics file then there is a strong possibility that it will work, assuming the ics link is valid.

Try adding this to your config entry for calendar, above or below the default

{
symbol: "calendar-check-o ",
url: "webcal://www.YOUR-LINK.com/blahblah/ical/The-ICS-FILE-NAME.ics"
},

@Iseknutz I haven’t touched that code in about 9 months. I can certainly look at the URL and see if that can be implemented.
