MMM-Page-Selector: A page switcher that can set positions of modules

@rudibarani
If I am understanding what you are asking for correctly, this function seems to be out of the scope that Page-Selector encompasses. I would develop a module to include this functionality, but I have been inactive in the world of Magic Mirror as of lately. As it stands, I would post this request to the module suggestions forum or ask somebody to include it in a module that has a closer association with this type of purpose. MMM-Remote-Control could be a good candidate.

OK - thanks for the reply anyway!

Hi all

To make MMM-page-indicator work with MMM-Page-Selector, we must add MMM-page-indicator in to pages

{
			module: "MMM-page-indicator",
			position: "bottom_bar",
			"pages": {"Home": "bottom_bar", "News": "bottom_bar","Weather": "bottom_bar","Entertaiment": "bottom_bar","Smarthome": "bottom_bar","System": "bottom_bar"},	
          	config: {
			pages: 6,
			}
		},

@Johans

pages: "all",

You forgot the quotation mark before and after pages

"pages": "all",

I love this module especially in use together with the MMM-navbar.
Is there any config using existing code that will let me make it return me to “default” page after a given period of time after changing page?

@Brandenborg
This is not a default function of this module. However, if you can edit a small amount of code, it should be easy to implement.
Just copy these lines of code right after line 235 of MMM-Page-Selector.js. This lines should be selectPage(payload);

clearTimeout(self.default_timeout);
if(![0, this.config.defaultPage].includes(payload)){
    self.default_timeout = setTimeout(() => {
        selectPage(this.config.defaultPage);
    }, TIME)
}

Then just replace TIME with the number of milliseconds you want to remain on the page before it automatically switches back to default. You may also have to change the 0 in the if statement if your default page isn’t at the 0th position.

@Veldrovive thanks a lot. I should manage that.
I recon the 0 position is the first page I define the contents of?

[Veldrovive]

@Brandenborg
The 0 should be the position of your default page in the page list. The furthest left is 0.

@Veldrovive
Thanks. And thank you for a really useful module!

@Brandenborg
The latest version of this module now has this as a (Not very well tested) feature.
You can now specify a restoreDefault prop in the MMM-Page-Selector config with the number of seconds you want before it returns to the default page.
