      Hello good people.

      From Norway, just starting with this magicmirror. Just this minute I’m “destroying” a old pc screen. Just for now I’m wondering if its possible to choose my own news feed? I want news from Norway and english premier league, goals and so on.

      My project is not going to be a mirror but a built in screen in my wall… Black screen when not used

        @frode yes, if there is a feed that provides the data you want, just yse that URL instead of (or in addition to) any other

          Hi again

          Working with this some days now 🙂 I like it! But the neverending question it seems : I’m trying to remote control this unit.

          I’ve installed by : bash -c “$(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control/master/installer.sh)” without * of course and that went ok, but when I try to add this

          {
          module: ‘MMM-Remote-Control’
          // uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
          // , position: ‘bottom_left’
          // you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself
          config: {
          customCommand: {}, // Optional, See “Using Custom Commands” below
          customMenu: “custom_menu.json”, // Optional, See “Custom Menu Items” below
          showModuleApiMenu: true, // Optional, Enable the Module Controls menu
          apiKey: “”, // Optional, See API/README.md for details
          }
          },

          its error anywhere I try to insert it to modules? I have put it between { (at the start of code) and }, in the end.

          But where ever I try to insert it, it goes to error? What am I doing wrong 🙂

            @frode what is the error?

            In config?

            Do

             npm run check:config
            

            from the mm folder

                The example config entry in the readme has a couple of errors. This should work for you.

                {
                    module: 'MMM-Remote-Control',
                    position: 'bottom_left',
                    config: {
                        customCommand: {},
                        customMenu: "custom_menu.json", 
                        showModuleApiMenu: true,
                        apiKey: "", 
                    }
                },
