MMM-ProfileSwitcher, A Profile/User/Layout Switching Module

[tosti007]

@PatrickGlatz
I just gave it a look and I know what’s wrong. The problem is that the code only looks at those times when switching to a different profile than the default profile. So it’s not a fault on your side but on mine.
Solution: I already solved it on my local pc and will upload the fix later today uploaded. All you will have to do is pull the new changes and the config you showed should work without a problem :)

Sorry for the inconvenience, a mistake on my part. Thank you for letting me know!

Hi! Thanks for this module, seems it is what I’m looking for.
Unfortunately, I very new with all this and wolud like to know if there is a step by step guide for this, for example, if I want so show the clock and the wheather in one profile, and in other news feed… is this possible?

Kind regards

[tosti007]

@pepemujica Yes this is totally possible! Unfortunatly there is no step by step guide for this. However I did write a small how-to here.

In your example you would have to give the weather and clock module the same profile name in classes and give the news feed a different one.

Is that link enough information? If not let me know and I will try to explain it more in depth.

@tosti007 Thanks for answering, at the moment, can’t find where to change the profile name in classes, is it in a specific file?

[tosti007]

@pepemujica You can set them in your config file. In this example the profile will be TestA for the clock module.

{
	module: 'clock',
	position: 'top_right',
	classes: 'TestA'
},

@tosti007 Great! I got it. Is this module compatible with MMM-Voice? So I can change between profiles just with voice?

[tosti007]

@pepemujica Unfortunatly not, that’s up to the maker of MMM-Voice. It would be easiest to ask him to implement it for you, writing a tutorial for it would probably be too complicated.

@tosti007 And is it there any way to use it with the remote control? I mean, I’ve seen in the forum people who could do it, but I can’t figure how

If you have installed MMM-Remote-Control and set up some classes (e.g. “default”, “someclass”), then you can switch between them by calling these URLs:

http://[RaspberryURL]:[port]/remote?action=NOTIFICATION& notification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload=%22default%22
http://[RaspberryURL]:[port]/remote?action=NOTIFICATION& notification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload=%22someclass%22

(Remove the whitespace between & and notification. “& not” gets converted to ¬ and i dont know how to prevent this :D)
