MMM-NewsAPI
-
@mumblebaj OK there it works.
Partitioning time…
-
@darrenhill If it works while you disabled the other modules then there must be a clash with one of them. Best to see which one and let me know. I can then try and see why it is clashing.
-
@mumblebaj It’s disagreeing with MMM-Gmailfeed
Commenting that out and the text and graphic appears, restore it and nothing.
Out of interest, what would be the recommended config for MMM-News to get the same (BBC content only, all items)?
I can’t get that to work either, even when MMM-NewsAPI is showing stuff? If possible I would prefer to use MMM-News, as that formatted things better for my mirror layout (as it’s an info-screen I like it vertical and bottom-centre layout).
-
@mumblebaj OK from some testing, there is a bad interaction with MMM-News, MMM-NewsAPI and MMM-Gmailfeed.
If I have Gmailfeed active, neither of the news modules work.
If I disable Gmailfeed, NewsAPI works but News doesn’t.
If I disable Gmailfeed and NewsAPI, News works.So for now I’ve disabled Gmailfeed and removed NewsAPI, as MMM-News fits my needs better. But I would be interested to know what is going wrong, as I would ideally like both MMM-News and MMM-Gmailfeed running, like I used to have up to sometime last week (when MMM-News stopped displaying anything)…
I appreciate this is now moved from MMM-NewsAPI to MMM-News, so if you’d prefer to troubleshoot that in a different thread (is there one for MMM-News?) I’m happy to switch.
-
@mumblebaj OK went into MMM-GmailFeed and updated it with git pull. Looks like it has been having some issues with at least one other module from its thread here.
Anyway updated to the latest version and restored it’s config and now both are happily playing together.
Thanks for all the help in getting this sorted out - my mirror is now back fully up and running with MMM-News and MMM-GmailFeed playing nicely together again!
-
@darrenhill Ah, perfect. Yes, MMM-News and MMM-NewsApi will not work together. You can only use either or at a time. However, I am glad you managed to get things working.
-
The bottom right of where the news was sourced from is always 1 day ago is that accurate to they way it should be?
-
@swvalenti Hi. That is correct. All the articles returned are from 1 day ago and thus the Luxon DateTime.toRelative() returns 1 day ago. That is how I coded it. If you would like a different format please raise a request on the GitHub page and I can look at it.
-
@mumblebaj nope all good was just making sure I wasn’t missing current news.
-
The news source footer, how do I make that display in the bottom right in css?
