      you need to add this to your pages module to get it to auto scroll:

      animationTime: 1000,
      rotationTime: 30 * 60 * 1000,
      rotationDelay: 500
      

      like so…

      {
        module: 'MMM-pages',
        config: {
          modules:
          [ 
            ["calendar", "MMM-DarkSkyForecast"],
            ["calendar", "MMM-DarkSkyForecast"]
          ],
            fixed: ["clock", "MMM-page-indicator"],
            animationTime: 1000,
            rotationTime: 30 * 60 * 1000, // this is to change the page every 30 minutes, 
            rotationDelay: 500
        }
      },

        @justjim1220 Since I have such small screen real estate I wanted page 1 to exactly mirror page 2 except for the hourly vs daily forecast display, and then have MMM-Pages auto rotate the pages. Seems this might not be possible…

          what time frame between rotations?
          You can also use https://github.com/edward-shen/MMM-page-indicator to manually change the pages
          I use both so if I want to see a different page and not have to wait the 30 minutes between rotations, I can just click on the page indicator to show the page I want to see

          What you are asking is doable ;)

              @justjim1220 Yes! This is what I was after! Thank you! Your repo, https://github.com/justjim1220/MMM-DarkSkyForecast2, doesn’t include the icons directory so I had to copy from MMM-DarkSkyForecast, symlink didn’t work.

                  @Clubjack I had recently exactly the same issue with MMM-ioBroker, where I needed 2 instances of that module running. Finally, after some research I found the solution and documented in my private Wiki. Here is the documentation I wrote. After setting up that 2nd instance you can configure each instance separately and declare it in MMM-pages.
                  Here we go:

                  Problem
                  In some cases you may need to run 2 or more instances of the same module in MM, e.g. for public transportation. Some MMMs can then be put into config.js just on a different position and parameterized as needed. Unfortunatelly, not all MMMs support that.
                  The reason is that all those instances will share the same node_helper and therefore get the same socketnotifications.

                  Solution
                  To solve this problem you can try to duplicate the MMM with a different name and call it in the config.js. There is no guarantee that it works, but worth to try.

                  Following steps have to be done:

                  1. Go to the modules folder and copy the whole module with a different name (in this example I’ll refer to MMM-ioBroker)
                  $ cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
                  $ cp -a MMM-ioBroker/ MMM-ioBroker2
                  
                  1. Go to ./MMM-ioBroker2 and change the .js of the module script accordingly
                  $ mv MMM-ioBroker.js MMM-ioBroker2.js
                  
                  1. Edit in MMM-ioBroker2.js the string to
                  Module.register('MMM-ioBroker2', {
                  …
                  
                  1. In some cases it might also be necessary to change the .css file name, too, incl. any reference to the instance name in the file.
                  $ mv MMM-ioBroker.css MMM-ioBroker2.css
                  

                  And then edit or replace all occurences of ‘MMM-ioBroker’ with ‘MMM-ioBroker2’ in MMM-ioBroker2.css.

                      Tryed your way, but get some issues with the modules. Is it right that i must use mv and not cp for the namechange from the. js?
