He did do a nice job… I’m going to call him “Wilson”… LOL I think he’ll know what I mean…

It’s from an old American show called “Home Improvements”… Every time the main actor talked to his neighbor the neighbor had something blocking his face so you could never see his face LOL

It was quite humorous…

can you paste what you put in the MMM- simple-logo

            {
		module: 'MMM-SimpleLogo',
		position: 'bottom_left',  	// This can be any of the regions.
		fileUrl: "modules/MMM-SimpleLogo/public/yes.jpg",
		config: {
                   width: "275px",
		// The config property is optional.
		// See 'Configuration options' for more information.
		}
	},
	{
		module: 'MMM-SimpleLogo',
		position: 'bottom_right',	// This can be any of the regions.
		config: {
                    width: "275px",
		fileUrl: "modules/MMM-SimpleLogo/public/starship.jpg",
		// The config property is optional.
		// See 'Configuration options' for more information.
		}
	},

I have 2 entries in my config.js file for MMM-SimpleLogo. One for each picture that I want to display. You can see each of their positions. You can see where I keep the picture files (fileUrl). I believe that if you change the width: then the height will automatically adjust, keeping the aspect ratio of the picture.

One thing to keep in mind. Two entries using the same position. The earlier one in the config.js ( I call it HIGHER)
will be above (higher) on your display. I hope this makes sense. I don’t know why the width: entries look indented. Mine are aligned with config: above

I have been lurking on here for a while now picking up hints and tips along the way

You don’t have to lurk. Step into the light. No really, this place is just full of helpful, brilliant people. Any problems I encountered were immediately addressed when I posted my questions. I’m basically done with my (1st) mirror but I’m sticking around to try to repay those that helped, or continue to help me, by helping others, if I can.

@Mykle1 Yes they were because they like doing this and because you asked nicely ;)

We’ve had a few that ‘demanded’… they didn’t last long here… LOL

This is a labor of love for many… There are so many other really great people here. So yes step into the light and ask questions… it’s how we learn!

@johnnyboy I had to format my brain to use Linux and learn JS… LOL BUT I’m doing it!

I’m used to Windows and PHP… While the both offer great things learning something new can be fun and frustrating… But hang in there if you have questions someone is usually there to answer!

Hey bud… what post had your updated MM pictures that showed your finished WunderGround module… the one where you added colours? iirc there was a tip there too to change the colors?

I don’t know where that post is so here’s what I think you are looking for. This goes in your custom.css file to change the colors for max-temp, min-temp and day. The colors you choose are up to you.

.MMM-WunderGround .max-temp {
  color: #f66;
}

.MMM-WunderGround .min-temp {
  color: #0ff;
}

.MMM-WunderGround .day {
  color: #6f6;
}

That gives you this.

so maybe furum still buggy?
My Weather icons look nothing like yours… so do I need to update WunderGround?

Yes, I think there is an issue with pictures displaying but the moderators/administrators are aware of that and are looking into it. Make sure you have coloricon: true, set in your config.js file in the WunderGround array. If that doesn’t do it then maybe you do need to update WunderGround. In that case, in your terminal

~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-WunderGround $ git pull

That will update your WunderGround, if it needs it

Also… whats with the time being wrong? Its been stuck on 17.20 ?

Is this not in your config.js file?

           {
		module: 'clock',
		position: 'top_center'
	},

Your a mind reader from across the pond lol… I was thinking about changing the clock over to centre 5 mins ago…

I wasn’t suggesting that you move the clock. I was only inquiring if you had the clock installed because you thought that the sunset time was the clock, stuck at 17:20
