MMM-ProfileSwitcher, A Profile/User/Layout Switching Module

tosti007

@PatrickGlatz
I just gave it a look and I know what’s wrong. The problem is that the code only looks at those times when switching to a different profile than the default profile. So it’s not a fault on your side but on mine.
Solution: I already solved it on my local pc and will upload the fix ~~later today~~ uploaded. All you will have to do is pull the new changes and the config you showed should work without a problem :)

Sorry for the inconvenience, a mistake on my part. Thank you for letting me know!

Hi! Thanks for this module, seems it is what I’m looking for.
Unfortunately, I very new with all this and wolud like to know if there is a step by step guide for this, for example, if I want so show the clock and the wheather in one profile, and in other news feed… is this possible?

Kind regards

tosti007

@pepemujica Yes this is totally possible! Unfortunatly there is no step by step guide for this. However I did write a small how-to here.

In your example you would have to give the weather and clock module the same profile name in classes and give the news feed a different one.

Is that link enough information? If not let me know and I will try to explain it more in depth.

@tosti007 Thanks for answering, at the moment, can’t find where to change the profile name in classes, is it in a specific file?

tosti007

@pepemujica You can set them in your config file. In this example the profile will be TestA for the clock module.

{
	module: 'clock',
	position: 'top_right',
	classes: 'TestA'
},

@tosti007 Great! I got it. Is this module compatible with MMM-Voice? So I can change between profiles just with voice?

tosti007

@pepemujica Unfortunatly not, that’s up to the maker of MMM-Voice. It would be easiest to ask him to implement it for you, writing a tutorial for it would probably be too complicated.

@tosti007 And is it there any way to use it with the remote control? I mean, I’ve seen in the forum people who could do it, but I can’t figure how

If you have installed MMM-Remote-Control and set up some classes (e.g. “default”, “someclass”), then you can switch between them by calling these URLs:

http://[RaspberryURL]:[port]/remote?action=NOTIFICATION& notification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload=%22default%22
http://[RaspberryURL]:[port]/remote?action=NOTIFICATION& notification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload=%22someclass%22

(Remove the whitespace between & and notification. “& not” gets converted to ¬ and i dont know how to prevent this :D)
