How can I ensure I get regular update notifications?

[Richard238]

Magic Mirror - long time, no updates I thought, so ran the update script with the apply suffix.
Without the apply suffix, I was 4130 commits behind!

Update seems to have worked, version now shows as 2.16.0
Current Weather not showing though?
(Seems it needed a bit longer to load, it’s OK now.)

And how can I ensure I get regular update notifications?
config is set to get update notifications:

{ module: "updatenotification", position: "top_bar" },

Thank you.

@richard238 the module just checks the git remote for mm. ( and same for each active module)

so, if you were running off a fork, then u wouldn’t see the original

if u still have the old mm folder do

git remote -v

@sdetweil

the same here. I have module: “newsfeed” in the top_bar position and get no notifications on any update.

[sdetweil]

@majorc it’s part of the base. so u won’t get individual module updates for default modules

[MajorC]

@sdetweil But I didn’t get a notice when MM changed from v.2.15.0 to v.2.16.0 either.

[sdetweil]

@majorc can u do a git remote -v in the MM folder

@sdetweil than it is shown:

origin  https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (push)

@majorc that should watch and provide updates… once every 90 days… next Oct 1.

[Richard238]

Likewise, I also get:
origin https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (push)

And I received no notification of the upgrade to 2.15, or to 2.16.

Thank you.

@richard238 @MajorC

I would post an issue to the MM github issues list.
