@cowboysdude This looks like an awesome module! Unfortunately, upon installation I get “undefined” underneath where it says “Today In History”. I believe I have installed everything properly!

@dherl0623 Let me check it out :)

do a git pull to update.

Don’t forget to run ‘npm install’ from the ~MagicMirror/modules/MMM-History directory :)

I’m sorry you had this idea before me. Really, just a great idea for a module. Interesting, informative and fun. :-)

Would there be a way to add some sort of faded countdown to when the next fact is going to show? I hate walking up and get halfway through a long one, and them having to wait for it to come back around. First world problems, I know :-P. I am not well versed in Javascript, but I was thinking about maybe reverse engineering the countdown function in this module: https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-VocabularyTrainer

Thanks!

Simple thing would be to increase rotation time.
Default is rotateInterval: 20 * 1000 in milliseconds. So it is set to 20 seconds.

In your config.js try this and play around with the timing to adjust to your needs:

{
	module: 'MMM-History',
	position: 'bottom_bar',
	config: {
		rotateInterval: 60 * 1000 // 60 seconds
	}
},
