    Thanks for the helpful suggestions.

    Date and time are correct on my pi, and the mirror even shows the right date and time.

    The config did have the missing ’ in current weather, I apparently accidentally deleted it when I was removing personal info. I edited the above to reflect the current status of my config file.

    This was working fine before. About the time I updated the mirror to latest version and added the motion detection module. But it didn’t happen immediately after those events. It was a few days later. I did find a logged issue (that was closed) describing the same thing, after updating the mirror.

      I’m having the same issue as @Canterrain

      0_1530532713034_912a9189-bc20-42b6-ae95-812dd4f864a1-image.png

      Snipp from Clock and Weather modules are below

       // Clock
      		{
      			module: "clock",
      			position: "top_center",
      			config: {
      				displayType: "digital",
      				displaySeconds: false,
      				showPeriod: true,
      				showPeriodUpper: false,
      				clockBold: false,
      				showDate: true,
      				showWeek: false,
      				dateFormat : "dddd, MMMM Do YYYY",
      			},
      		},
      
      // Calendar// Weather - ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
      		{
      			module: "weatherforecast",
      			position: "top_left",
      			header: "7 Day Forecast for ",
      			config: {
      				fade: false,
      				maxNumberOfDays: 7,
      				showRainAmount: true,
      				colored: true,
      				locationID: "2655603",
      				appid: "xxx"
      			},
      		},
      

      Issue only occurred once I did an update to the MM system to v.2.4.0

          same here.

          Is there a possibilty to erase the comma and country code behind the location in the header?!

            Hello,

            same problem for me since the update in 2.4.0… So general update issue probably (looking forward for a solution !:slightly_smiling_face: )

            To answer @killing-joke said in Weather forecast only displays ‘invalid date’:

            same here.

            Is there a possibilty to erase the comma and country code behind the location in the header?!

            I did change the following on the file “/MagicMirror/modules/default/weatherferecast/weatherforecast.js” :

            // Override getHeader method.
            getHeader: function() {
            if (this.config.appendLocationNameToHeader) {
            //line to change
            //return this.data.header + " " + this.fetchedLocationName;
            return "Prévisions Météo Nogent"; // write here what you want...
            }
            
            return this.data.header;
            }, 
            

            Here is the result :

            20180702_220235_resized

            You can of course change the line on the way you want to remove only the part you need.

              Thanks a lot. I got it.

              I found a solution on https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/commit/0e2e8d2e2aca2f8d0f1f2eb7b213577fcc4f623a
              But I had to change the lines 338 and 339 instead of 336 and 337

              var day = moment(forecast.dt_txt, "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss").format("ddd");
              var hour = moment(forecast.dt_txt, "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss").format("H");
              

              into

              var day;
              var hour;
              if(!!forecast.dt_txt) {
              	day = moment(forecast.dt_txt, "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss").format("ddd");
              	hour = moment(forecast.dt_txt, "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss").format("H");
              } else {
              	day = moment(forecast.dt, "X").format("ddd");
              	hour = moment(forecast.dt, "X").format("H");
              }
              

              It works for my MM.

                Looks like the recent changes here are the culprit. They already figured out what needs to be changed, fixed in an upcoming update. Pull request is in. Get ready to update your mirrors.

                      Ive just merged the fix by @jannekalliola into the develop branch which should solve this issue: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/pull/1341

                      Can you guys please test this develop branch? If this solves the issue, I’ll release an intermediate 2.4.1 release.

                      To tryout the develop branch, use the following git command on your terminal (from within the MagicMirror folder):

                      git checkout develop 
                      git pull
                      

                      Thanks for testing!
