      Easy way is if you don’t want random then enter just 1 entry under each time… ;) That way you don’t have to do anything to change it… it’ll just show what you want all the time …

      The compliments module isn’t random. It rotates through whatever is in the module according to the time of day…

      So if you want it say something different then change it :)

        hmm… good point but then it will only display 1 string at a time, am I correct? What I am trying to do is display 6-8 strings all the time in a specific order.

          @cnelso24 Do a search on here… someone was asking or trying to make this work with a separate json file that they wanted to create… maybe you can do it that way.

          Try this forum… near the bottom:

          yawns was talking about something that could possibly work!

            @cnelso24 Okay, so what you want is more something like hello world, but 6 times.
            I’ll get my PI back tomorrow, I will setup magicmirror and play around with the modules.
            I’m planning on making my own module, so this is a good exercise :p

            I’ll let you know If I got it working

              I just put this together, based on the original compliments module. I am not sure if this should be added to the default module by PullRequest, which is why I created a standalone repository first.

                    I’m sorry I have not, I have been working overtime this week. I (hopefully) will get to test it out this evening.
