Newsfeed size

Kenta

I want a bigger newsfeed, so I made a custom.css file and added this

.newsfeed .medium
{
font-size: 60px;
line-height: 60px;
}

This only increased the size of the header, not the body of the newsfeed

Any tips?

line-height: 60px;

.newsfeed .bright.medium.light {
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
}

Nope. Still just the headlines. Does the css need to contain more than just the code you suggested?

@Kenta i would look at the code for className=

if(showingDescription)
   description.className = "newsfeed-desc small light"

so, change newsfeed-desc
.newsfeed .newsfeed-desc {
???
}

@sdetweil thank you for trying, but I don’t know where to look… Total n00b…
This is from my config.js
{
module: “newsfeed”,
position: “bottom_bar”,
config: {
feeds: [
{
title: “NRK Nyheter”,
url: “https://www.nrk.no/nyheter/siste.rss”
}
],

@Kenta understand… each module gets to do its own thing… hardly any are documented well…

all modules code are in the ~/MagicMirror/modules folder

all the built in ones are in the modules/default folder…

each module has a file with the name matching the module name… so in this case

~/MagicMirror/modules/default/newsfeed/newsfeed.js

setting the UI component css ‘class’ is done y setting the ‘className’ variable of the element

so, you edit the file and search for className , and there may be multiple… (as there are in this case)…

@Kenta said in Newsfeed size:

So, I second guessed myself and checked again. The code above does what you want for the headlines. Are you saying you want the New York Times, 2 hours ago: portion as well? In that case, add this as well.

.newsfeed .light.small.dimmed {
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
}

@Mykle1 not exactly. I want my entire newsfeed bigger. Not just the headlines. This is the original (https://www.dropbox.com/s/nzb2o5kecn6gfdy/Screenshot_20200317_065226_com.realvnc.view![alt

Then by the changes made in the before mentioned css I get this https://www.dropbox.com/s/pxnuosggy7g24q7/Screenshot_20200317_065703_com.realvnc.viewer.android.jpg?dl=0
But the actual news is still same size…

Assuming we are talking about the default newsfeed module, I could only identify two classes.

The title

.newsfeed .bright.medium.light {
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
}

And the source

.newsfeed .light.small.dimmed {
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
}

I’m not seeing another. As you can see from my picture both rules are working. Are you using BOTH of these?

.newsfeed .bright.medium.light {
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
}

.newsfeed .light.small.dimmed {
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 60px;
}

Maybe I’m using an old version? Open the dev console when the mirror is running and identify the third class, if there is one.

@Mykle1
None of those help. The first gives a bigger headline, as I’ve showed in previous posts, the other one a bigger name of news channel/time of occurrence.
In dev I see this alt text
