Nope not working…

if you change the id’s to “movies_sidebar”
and uri: “http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dream_horse”
It seems like it’s loading again. but the loading is not correct.

would be super good if there would be a way to manually add the PR just replacing the index do not work.

@lavolp3 where did the pr come from? what repo? git clone that repo to install and test

[lavolp3]

@sdetweil it’s old stuff as I see, has been explained before already
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/post/70295

When I install @parnic’s fork,

1. I have a node.js error since the NodeHelper has not been declared in this file.
   This can be resolved by adding

var NodeHelper = require("node_helper")

below the declaration of the rt-scraper.

2. then see only the headers and no movies as has been described above.

That’s the problem with scrapers. Small cosmetic changes in the website break them.

[lavolp3]

RT has obviously changed their content more towards TV shows since cinemas are not well visited at the moment.

[sdetweil]

@lavolp3 yeh, one of the TV show scrapers failed too for similar cause.

[tomyboy96]

Still nothing new here?

Saw that https://github.com/parnic/MMM-RottenTomatoes has gotten a new push but still seems like the same problem.

[lavolp3]

@tomyboy96 same for me. No movies showing up.

[lavolp3]

@lavolp3 I tried to dig a bit deeper into the rt-scraper module again and it seems the references for the elements are all different from the current page.
The output of the module is empty and therefore we only see the headlines and no content.
I don’t think I’ll be able to fix it.
