Thanks, I really like the look of this one!
One problem for me, even the very compact “2” view is too big for my mirror.
Is there a way to have the icon and the header on one line and the status and forwarder on the next line? Or set a column width and use wrap?
thanks

yes, would be possible, I think. Good idea,!
I’ll look into a compact “3”. If we exchange mailadresses can you send me a picture of your mirror, so I can understand a little bit better what you mean… Because compactness 2 should already show a 1 liner…
cheers, martin

Great module! Are the names of the packages customizable too?

@goprojojo Thanks! But also thanks to Aftership.com for providing the API.
The parcel names (titles in aftership-speak) are customizable via the aftership app, or via the aftership.com website (login -> trackings). Just select the shipment, click edit and enter your own title in the title field. This name will then appear on the mirror-screen. Let me know if that helps and answers your question.

@modderhut . Thanks for your comment and compliments! For now you can set
maxWidth: "350px"in the module config parameters or whatever pixwidth works for you. Sorry, this was an undocumented feature ;).Your feedback also prompted me to consider the behavior of the module in a “narrow” space. I will soon release a functional enhancement for this module in order to autoadapt the module display to a narrow(er) space, maintaining effectiveness and the “look and feel”.

This is a great module, but whenever I change the compactness to anything other than 1, it fails to load. I really want 2 for “very compact”, but it just displays this:

@twosquirrels Thank you for liking the module, and this clearly seems a bug that I haven’t seen yet, and can’t reproduce at home here. Sorry. I have dropped you a PM with my contact info, if you would be willing to help me debugging your situation.

This wound up being due to my own impatience. I did get “undefined” after restarting magic mirror, but if I waited a few minutes, it would appear in the desired format. Perhaps the API call wasn’t being performed yet. I was just tinkering too much to wait. Thanks again for making this module!

To the users: thanks for your compliments. Your comments inspire me to add new functionality. Today (2018-03-30): a layout that caters for narrow spaces on the mirror and the possibility to automatically hide delivered packages after a configurable number of days. Have fun and keep on commenting!

Great! But… I seem to have messed up the update, perhaps because I tried to update from the /config folder:
