      You can integrate one or more button into your mirror frame to do all sorts of things. Wire them up to the GPIO and you can use MMM-Buttons, for example, to have them do things.

      My mirror has one buttons. When in powered off mode, the button starts up the Pi. When MagicMirror is running, a single press restarts MM, and a long press shuts the pi down. You could similarly have a button to cycle from one page to the next with each button press, or several buttons to do very specific things.

        I had it but couldn’t figure out how to do pages even tho I went through that read me file a couple of times I just couldn’t figure it out

        Hi, I can help you get one module working with Hello Lucy. This should be enough for you to do others on your own. Sound good? Let me know.

          I just have added Lucy to my “modules to add” list!:grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
          I’ll try to figure it out myself first (that’s the most fun) If not… @Mykle1 Is it okay to send you a message?

            @mykle1 does it sound good it sounds great! The farthest that I got was install the three new files in the MMM-voice folder. The other stuff like adding the pages and modules blow my tiny mind. Help would be much appreciated

              Sure, you can message me, but why not create a topic (ex Hello-Lucy Help) where I can post the help for you. Then, everyone else can see and use the examples posted there. Yeah, I like that idea. You create the topic, explain your needs, and we’ll get you up and running.

                Read the post above this one. Same goes for you. One of you create the topic and explain what you’ve done so far and we’ll go from there

                  @mykle1 When the time comes I will do that!
                  First I want the “normal” modules I want to be added to my mirror config and have them working.

                        IM using MQTT to hook up my mirror to HomeAssistant and apples HomeKit-app. This way I automize screen shut-down every evening but also makes it available to the rest of the family.
                        I’ve created a simple module to interact with already existing modules using the notification system
