How to go back to previous version of a module?

@Mykle1 yes then do git checkout COMMITID the commitid can be found on the right side of the list

If you follow Strawberrys link, you see hash codes like 7a03e01. You don’t need to clone the repository again, you just tell git to switch to another “version”.

So you open a terminal, change into the module folder and run git checkout 7a03e01 to checkout this specific version. As an alternative you could run a command like git checkout @{14.days.ago} or git checkout 'master@{1979-02-26 18:30:00}'

Ahh, well, I had already trashed my MMM-NetworkScanner folder. I didn’t know about the commands below.

This is very good information. It would have saved me some anxious moments and some time as I am hesitant to change anything in my MM now because it’s just about as beautiful as it gets! There are still some things that I want to do, and I will. I like to take things slowly and try to absorb as much information as I can. I probably should have kept a running file to document all the things that I’ve been shown or taught here so I can retrieve them when needed. I have gotten better at searching though and can usually find what I am looking for. Only after looking and trying do I like to ask for help.

Anyway, thank you again. :thumbsup_tone1:

One tip that has helped me several times, for several reasons is to ***** Make a back up copy of Custom css AND Config.js as you go along.

I’m pretty sure that was me :wink:

same with the MMM-Remote

Go get MMM-Remote-Control right now. Barely any setup. It’s a must have
