I think that using Remote-Control with Lucy can cause problems because they are both controlling HIDE/SHOW commands. If you disable Remote-Control temporarily does Hello Lucy still exhibit the issues you mentioned? The config entries for each page are how you set up your pages. Spellings and cases must be precise. The slightest error could drive you nuts.

So, if you don’t want the module to show at all you can add this to your custom.css file"

.Hello-Lucy {
  display: none;
}

However, you will no longer have any visual confirmation (ex. pulsing mic icon).

Oh Thank you for the css code! and I do understand about the no visual acknowledgment (which I have now found to be very useful).
For whatever reason when I moved my magic mirror from my garage where I have been configuring it to the living room… there is now a very long lag. For what ever reason I know it sounds crazy but in the garage there isn’t a lag. I have two theories for this… either its because wifi is stronger in garage (I dont see why this would matter at all)…or because there is more noise in the living room (which is more likely the reason)…

As for remote control I do have remote control as a module … in any of my process I have had the module installed.
I don’t feel that has anything to do with it but I will surely test this out very soon.

I have been thinking the issue lies with MMM-NewPIR since that is simply a module that instead of turning off power or going to stanby to “hide modules” it “covers” it. Well from what they said they made it sound like they just put up a black screen.
But the more I think about it they must do more because no matter what when the mirror goes to “sleep” because of no motion… when it comes back on because of motion ALL MODULES are shown.

So right now my Lucy config is below… and when MM first boots up … with this config Lucy is the only one showing on page 1 (page 2 works fine) if I switch to page to then back to page 1 Lucy does not show.
If I turn off MMM-NewPIR I have the same result… so I will try disabling MMM-Remote (as you suggested) and see if that works.

I guess I want to confirm from this config… when the mirror starts up, nothing should show on first page not even Lucy …correct?

Well I have commented out everything in my config file except for “clock” module and Lucy.
For Lucy I have the config file like in my last post but I even have nothing in the second page.

When MM boots , Lucy shows bottom left corner. I suppose this is normal because why would you want her not there? I was wanting it that way because she was working really well with no lag… but for whatever reason not the case in a different room…crazy!

Your config entry is correct. I also see that Lucy is shown in this case. Changing pages and going back to page 1 and Lucy is gone. Odd. Use the css .
