      Hello,

      I would like to modify the following modules: weather, news, holidays to put those of my country.
      How can I do ?
      Thank you for your help.

        Weather usually requires that you enter a location ID of some sort, so that the module knows what information to display.

        Newsfeed? Do a google search for an .rss newsfeed that interests you, local to you and/or in your native language. You’ll need the url to that newsfeed to add to the module.

        MMM-Holiday2? Change the country code in the config.

        The README file included with each module has directions for use

              Hello,
              I am a beginner in this field. I’m stuck for the following things:
              1- Modify the rss stream while I modify it in the configuration file newsfeed.js with a new url: http://www.lemonde.fr/rss/une.xml
              2- I will also activate the color weather on the MagicMirror by setting my country of origin.
              For the moment, I managed to edit compliments
              Thank you very much for your help.

                Sorry,

                I found or had to modify the parameters for the rss feed (MagicMirror/config/config.js).

                Now I try to display the color weather of my country.

                  What weather module are you using?

                    Hi,
                    I use module currentweather and weatherforecast.
                    Here’s my configuration :

                    			module: "currentweather",
                    			position: "top_right",
                    			config: {
                    				location: "Saint Nicolas d'Aliermont",
                    				locationID: "https://openweathermap.org/city/2977892",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
                    				appid: "MyAPI"
                    			}
                    		},
                    		{
                    			module: "weatherforecast",
                    			position: "top_right",
                    			header: "Weather Forecast",
                    			config: {
                    				location: "Saint Nicolas d'Aliermont",
                    				locationID: "https://openweathermap.org/city/2977892",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
                    				appid: "MyAPI"
                    

                    No information is displayed on screen.

                      Change your locationID in both modules to this:

                      locationID: "2977892",

                      And, of course, enter your apiKey in both
