      @RoadRunnr1469 I won’t be able to look at this til tomorrow or Sunday.

      Open the developers window ctrl-shift-i select the console tab and scroll up to see any messages sent from the on screen module

        @RoadRunnr1469 I installed the module, and modified one of mine to send the notification, and it worked as expected.

          @RoadRunnr1469 and you installed the “MMM-OnScreenMenu” module too, right?

            @sdetweil yes, and the on screen option works fine changes the logo as expected.

                  @RoadRunnr1469 ok, YOU have to actually update the fileUrl file with new contents.

                  it loads the SAME fileUrl over and over and over and over
                  it adds a fake timestamp to the URL to force the browser cache to see a different file
                  which loads a new instance into the cache…

                  so somehow you have to do

                  cp  whatever_source_path/new_logo_to_display.jpg  ~/MagcMirror/modules/MMM-SimpleLogo/public/Amc.JPG
                  

                  I have tested this and it works

                  also I think
                  the content of the new logo image TYPE must match the file extension… it is expecting jpg
                  so cannot change to gif/png for next ones to load
