MMM-pages - modules with same name on different pages

sdetweil

@chassain-0 said in MMM-pages - modules with same name on different pages:

and add default/newsfeed2 in defaultmodules.js
add the module in config.js and restart mm

you do not need to (and should not) edit the defaultmodules.js file

just use
{
module: “default/newsfeed2”
etc
}

Hi again,

Non of these proposals work for me…or I’m too dump to understand it. I made different attemps: copied newsfeed2 parallel to newsfeed in the default-folder and added “default/newsfeed2” to config.js - no success. Then I made a default-folder under default - no success. I also tried “newsfeed2” in config.js - no success.
In any combination I change newsfeed.js to newsfeed2.js without success. Can someone with a running newsfeed-doublette enter a screenshot of the folder-structure and the config.js?
Thank you in advance
Thomas

don’t forget to change the name inside the file newsfeed2.js

thgmirror

I already did - no success.
Am I the only one with this requirement?

@thgmirror it works for me…

duplicate newsfeed’ folder to newfeed2…change the file inside to newsfeed2.js…change Module.register(“newsfeed”,{ to Module.register(“newsfeed2”,{
add module default/newsfeed2 in config.js…

thgmirror

SUCCESS!!!
as a summery, I did

copy default/newsfeed to default/newsfeed2
changed the name of newsfeed.js in default/newsfeed2 to newsfeed2.js
changed Module.register(“newsfeed”,{ to Module.register(“newsfeed2”,{ in newsfeed2.js
entered module: “default/newsfeed2”, in config.js

Thanks to Fozi, chassain and sdetweil for all your help.

Hi again,

now I need help for the same kind of duplication but now of the MMM-iFrame-modul. I did all he necessary steps analoge to my changes regarding the newsfeed-module. I added two entries to the config.js and both websides appear on the mirror, but only one responds to the updateInterval given in the parameter-section. The other one shows the websid without any refresh.

Any help is welcome;-)

As the news feed is the default module, so it would be difficult to get it on different pages along with different sources,
Alternatively you could copy some 3rd Party module and rename it as you have done earlier.

However i did all my news feeds arranged on a single page just like this :

@pandeyprakhar00 any module can be duplicated… see the post a few back by @chassain-0 which describes the steps.

pandeyprakhar00, it is possible to duplicate the newsfeed-module, see the posts of @chassain-0 or my post some lines above. The issue here is, that I duplicated MMM-iFrame, but one of them did not refresh as respond to the updateInterval in the config.js.

@thgmirror have you tried your luck with MMM-SmartWebDisplay module ?
