Hi, there is a new Alexa Module

techcoderun

@Stoffbeuteluwe I’m having similar issues. My Alexa is unable to discover my MM. Don’t believe there are any errors in the config file. Also, the Alexa icon appears on my mirror. Do I need Wemo or Fauxmo in stalled on the RPi?

Any others have luck getting their MM discovered?

@techcoderun Have you installed:

MMM-Pages
MMM-page indicator ?

BD0G

I installed both MMM-Pages
MMM-page indicator as well as the Alexa Module and never was able to discover my MagicMirror. I think I will move on to the MMM-Awesome-Alexa module and give that a whirl.

@BD0G wanna try my config ?

@Stoffbeuteluwe Sure!

@BD0G you have to set your number of pages in:
MMM-Pages
and
MMM-page-indicator

Stoffbeuteluwe

@BD0G the notification in my config is for MMM-Remote-Control
to send notifications (on/off) for each module if you like…

@techcoderun no, you don’t need to install wemo or fauxmo
