            @sdetweil In my developer log it mentions “RemoteCompliments: ‘MODULE_DOM_CREATED’ received: null” and “module.js:199 MMM-RemoteCompliments is suspended.” Is that a clue? It just doesn’t make sense. I tested it yesterday morning by putting in a really long compliment just to see how it looked on the screen. I then reverted it back to a short compliment. Later in the morning I did a sudo apt-get update and a sudo apt-get upgradejust before setting up remote desktop, VNC and pitunnel. Those are the only other things that I can think of where I changed some stuff.

            developers window

            Load script: modules/MMM-RemoteCompliments//MMM-RemoteCompliments.js

            module.js:199 MMM-RemoteCompliments is suspended.
            

            Are there any other (perhaps more stable) modules where I can display a custom message (compliment) depending on the time of day? I had about 10 compliments programmed to display at their specified time slots throughout the day. And I liked the ability to control / override them easily with my phone via Google Drive.

              @forjer the code and comments

              // Hide module on startup. 
              			// If the module receives data, the module will reveal itself.
              			self.hide(0);
              			self.hidden = true;
              

              which is reasonable, but it just reinforces no data.

              sorry no idea on another module that does this other than the default compliments module with remotefile

                @sdetweil Hmm…is there a simple way to hard code in a RemoteCompiment to force it to show? Just as a troubleshooting step to see it?

                I guess I could consider the default compliments with remote file. Can I run a second default compliment module at the same time? Is it as simple as copying the folders and renaming them “compliments2” or something?

                  @forjer the default compliments module can be used multiple times without problem. you either pass the compliments as config parms or in a remotefile as config parm

                    @sdetweil So are you saying I can run two instances of compliments at the same time, shown in two different locations on the same display? And is this done by copying the compliments.js to make a “compliments2.js”?

                      @forjer yes, two instances, no need to copy the module

                        @sdetweil I’m sorry, I’m a little slow. And this is making my brain hurt. I really appreciate your patience with me.

                        How would this look in config.js? And how does it know which compliments go in what position of the MM?

                        What I’m after is a normal compliments module running in lower_third, and a second compliments module sliced into 10 time slots with a different set of compliments running in upper_third. I’ve just finished modifying the default compliments.js to get my 10 time slots and that seems to work, so I’m getting closer.
