Hi I only see this…?

Need a little bit help :grinning_face:

[sdetweil]

@stoffbeuteluwe try again , git pull the repo…

[stoffel]

@sdetweil

i have fix it with your issues. thank you very much !!

[sdetweil]

@stoffel i have seen a couple places in some data where I inadvertently change paths to files with leading …

so be careful…

will update fix when I have it…

[stoffel]

@sdetweil
ok, thanks. it works well with all my modules, great!

but when i add the MMM-Volume i have another error. i think it is a problem from MMM-Volume. it’s two years old. it’s a json format error

[sdetweil]

@stoffel no, I fixed a problem with MMM-Volume earlier today… haven’t pushed it yet…

[stoffel]

@sdetweil

ok

when you module works also with MMM-Volume then i am very happy.:beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes: i control my mm over remote control.

thank you very much for your support, great job :thumbs_up:

[sdetweil]

@stoffel do a git pull on the newform branch, and try it out… this is with the fix for MMM-Volume

and another, plus an npm install after

[stoffel]

@sdetweil

good morning

sometimes i can not post, when i submit i have a error message in the lower right corner ?!

ok, i’v tested your fix. at the moment your module do not work for. in mm says i use localhost, but in my config i have addressed at 0.0.0.0 and ipWhitelist: []

i send you the result of pm2 logs --lines=100. one for test without MMM-Volume and one with.
i hope it’s help you.

[sdetweil]

@stoffel yes, the forum is not very helpful on why a posting error… i get it too…
i refresh the screen and then I can post the exact same message… (I copy it before refresh)

MMM-Volume… i thought i pushed that one line change… just did… git pull

the localhost/0.0.0.0

will examine

[sdetweil]

@stoffel ok, fixes… in branch newform…

on the QR code messages I was changing address AND ipWhitelist EMPTY…
i only check address now, and assume you know what you are doing on whitelist

[sdetweil]

For any that want to look at the multi-module form layout and give feedback

checkout the multi-module branch

git checkout multi-module

there is a file that contains the list of module names that CAN be used multiple times in the same config.js

modules_list.txt

you cannot submit the form, only view it…

to go back to the operating version

git checkout main

or

(with the .... fixes) 
git checkout newform 

[stoffel]

@sdetweil

i did it. WOW, all works well. thanks, great job and fast :thumbs_up:

but it works only when i open …/review or must add ‘?port=8300’ at …/config.html

thank you very much :-)

[sdetweil]

@stoffel said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

but it works only when i open …/review or must add ‘?port=8300’ at …/config.html

well, i need a free port to have the two parts communicate.

I had ‘guessed’ at a free port, but some other users had stuff running there
so, I have it get a free port, but now I have to pass that to the form side…

use the review URL , it will always redirect to the correct url

it will probably never change on your system , so once u know what the number is, use that url…

[stoffel]

@sdetweil

ok, thanks for you support. great job !

i follow this tread and test your module. but in the next days i am a little bit busy.

so, @ all have a nice WE

[sdetweil]

@stoffel thanks for your help!..

I need people like you to help improve the module. every bug found now helps…

[stoffel]

@sdetweil

thanks ;-)

and i like people like you who spent a lot of time for creating useful modules like this !!

again thanks a lot

So, I’m getting the header and nothing else.

fresh install of MagicMirror using the script, PM2. Here’s my config, as you can see, the only changes are the listening address, the ipWhitelist, and the addition of the module as shown in the readme.

modules I installed (but didn’t configure for testing) were MMM-Config, MMM-Multimonth, and MMM-OpenWeatherForecast.

var config = {
        address: "0.0.0.0",     // Address to listen on, can be:
        port: 8080,
        basePath: "/",  // The URL path where MagicMirror is hosted. If you are using a Reverse proxy
        ipWhitelist: [],        // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
        useHttps: false,                // Support HTTPS or not, default "false" will use HTTP
        httpsPrivateKey: "",    // HTTPS private key path, only require when useHttps is true
        httpsCertificate: "",   // HTTPS Certificate path, only require when useHttps is true
        language: "en",
        locale: "en-US",
        logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR"], // Add "DEBUG" for even more logging
        timeFormat: 24,
        units: "metric",
        // serverOnly:  true/false/"local" ,
        // local for armv6l processors, default
        //   starts serveronly and then starts chrome browser
        // false, default for all NON-armv6l devices
        // true, force serveronly mode, because you want to.. no UI on this device

        modules: [
        {
                module:"MMM-Config",
                position:"top_right",  // the QR code (if requested) will appear here
                config:{

                }
        },
... (no changes after this point)
