SimpleLogo auto change logo not working

[sdetweil]

@RoadRunnr1469 and you installed the “MMM-OnScreenMenu” module too, right?

[RoadRunnr1469]

@sdetweil yes, and the on screen option works fine changes the logo as expected.

@RoadRunnr1469 cool… can u mark this as resolved now?

[RoadRunnr1469]

no, the SimpleLogo auto changer part still is not working.

[sdetweil]

@RoadRunnr1469 ok, YOU have to actually update the fileUrl file with new contents.

it loads the SAME fileUrl over and over and over and over
it adds a fake timestamp to the URL to force the browser cache to see a different file
which loads a new instance into the cache…

so somehow you have to do

cp  whatever_source_path/new_logo_to_display.jpg  ~/MagcMirror/modules/MMM-SimpleLogo/public/Amc.JPG

I have tested this and it works

also I think
the content of the new logo image TYPE must match the file extension… it is expecting jpg
so cannot change to gif/png for next ones to load
