MMM-Carousel not displaying

Wenike

@pastormingle Do you have MMM-Fitbit, etc as modules on your mirror?

Wenike

@pastormingle Well, instead, I’d expect at least newsfeed, calendar, and helloworld (since that isn’t on the readme) to work as those are either default modules or one you likely added. But that lis:

                    ['helloworld','calendar'],
                    ['weatherforecast', 'MMM-Trello', 'planetrise', 'newsfeed'],
                    ['MMM-fitbit']

Only works with the names of the modules you have, so if you don’t have MMM-fitbit installed, calling it is pointless and nothing would display.

@wenike this is what i have in my config.js but it’s still not displaying.

                { 
                        module: 'MMM-Carousel',
                        config: {
                        transitionInterval: 10000,
                        ignoreModules: ['clock', 'alert'],
                        mode: 'slides',
                slides: [
                    ['helloworld','calendar'],
                    ['weatherforecast','weather'],
                    ]}
                },

@pastormingle do you have all those modules defined in your config.js?

helloworld is not usually there
weatherforecast isn’t used lately

MagicMirror can only show or hide modules. it does not dynamically load them

so whatever is enabled in config.js is used

carousel, like pages, face reco , profile switcher, etc, just degolines and idea for showing selected modules content.

pages and carousel ground them and display on demand (pages) or timed (carousel)
or some other trigger (face reco content by discovered user)

Heres my config…

@pastormingle but u don’t have calendar, altho u specified on a slide

and without carousel, all those modules display content, right?

open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard, select the console tab and scroll up

u can also filter by module with unique part of name in filter field

car for example

pastormingle

@sdetweil i have a calendar listed but i have multiple calendars.

@pastormingle right_top and center_bottom are not positions on the mirror if I am not mistaken. See this link for more information regarding positions: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/286/regions

pastormingle

@mumblebaj So I’ve loaded the default config.js just to see if the course module is working at all. I’ve sent to use the global function and still, I see nothing changing on the screen.
