… and all for custom css i think!

Hi:

Newbie here: I really like the design layout you’ve come up with - Kudos! However, can’t make heads or tails out of exactly what code I put where? Are the lines you list placed in config.js or in custom.css? If possible, can you post the part of your config.js and/or custom.css files (with appid and any other personal info erased, of course) that gives this display?

Thanks!

@jproehl all I posted here goes into the custom.css file

@strawberry-3.141 What do you put into your config.js file?

Thanks! It’s just how I pictured it, but it only happened through the goodwill of Strawberry 3.141

@Mykle1 and/or @strawberry-3.141: I’m still having problems getting things to look like Mykle’s. If I just put those 9 lines in my custom.css file and have no reference to the MMM-WunderGround module in my config.js file, I get nothing displayed for my weather info. Does this mean that the custom.css file isn’t being read? Do I have to place my custom.css file somewhere other than pi/MagicMirror/css/?

When I add references to the MMM-WunderGround module in config.js, I get the weather info, but I do not get the format you have. Presumably the parameters set in the module reference override the custom.css info in some way.

That’s why I was wondering what you have in your config.js file to initiate the MMM-WunderGround module.

My design/layout ideas are in high demand. :thumbsup_tone1:

This is my entry in the config. Yes, there are 2 entries. One is for the current weather and one is for the weather forecast, only seperate and in different locations. You still have to enter what Strawberry told you to enter in your custom.css file. Then all should be well.

{
    			module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
    			position: 'top_center',
    			config: {
        		apikey: 'YOUR API KEY', // private; don't share!
        		pws: 'pws:KNYNEWYO103', // Richmondtown Weather Station - Very Cool
			currentweather: 1,
        		coloricon: true,
        		hourly: '0',
        		fctext: '1',
        		fcdaycount: "10",
        		fcdaystart: "0",
        		hourlyinterval: "2",
        		hourlycount: "1",
			animationSpeed: 5000,
        		alerttime: 10000,
        		alerttruncatestring: "english:",
    			roundTmpDecs: 0,
    			UseCardinals: 1,
    			layout: "vertical",
			windunits: "mph",
    			sysstat: "0"
			}
		},
		{
    			module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
    			position: 'top_right',
    			config: {
        		apikey: 'YOUR API KEY AGAIN', // private; don't share!
        		pws: 'pws:KNYNEWYO103', // Richmondtown Weather Station - Very Cool
			currentweather: 0,
        		coloricon: true,
        		hourly: '1',
        		fctext: '1',
        		fcdaycount: "10",
        		fcdaystart: "1",
        		hourlyinterval: "2",
        		hourlycount: "1",
			animationSpeed: 5000,
        		alerttime: 10000,
        		alerttruncatestring: "english:",
    			roundTmpDecs: 0,
    			UseCardinals: 1,
    			layout: "vertical",
			windunits: "mph",
    			sysstat: "0"
			}
		},

@Mykle1 Thanks! I’m much closer. There are a couple of minor differences that I’m trying to ferret out:

I had to change a few lines in your module call to MMM-WunderGround for the current weather - I zeroed out the fctext, fcdaycount, hourlyinterval and hourlycount otherwise I got the forecast right below the current conditions in addition to the one at upper-right
Under my current conditions color icon/temperature, I see a line with two thermometers and an umbrella (i.e. the header for the forecasts) which I have no idea how to get rid of. I believe the changes I made under 1) should have removed any call for a forecast.
I do not get any color changes like you have in the forecast at the upper right. Did you have to change something else to get those?

Thanks a bunch!

This page will explain the effects of the individual config changes that you made.

This goes in your custom.css file for the coloring that I have. You can change the colors to your liking

.MMM-WunderGround .max-temp {
  color: #f66;
}

.MMM-WunderGround .min-temp {
  color: #0ff;
}

.MMM-WunderGround .weather-icon {
  color: #f93;
}

.MMM-WunderGround .day {
  color: #6f6;
}
