      Got the new version (typo in “notification”?) and it seems to work except that it ignores the interval and just constantly sends the notification.

      Also, there’s an error showing in the console log:

      Parameter mismatch in module.show: callback is not an optional parameter! 3 module.js:394:8
      

      with different numbers. I’m not sure that’s a problem (MMM-BackgroundSlideshow has the same error and it works fine) but I thought I’d mention it.

          This is what I have:

          {
            module: 'MMM-SendNotification',
            position: 'top_right',
            classes: "fixed",
            config: {
              interval: 60000, // 1 minute interval
              notification: 'PAGE_CHANGED',
              payload: 1,
            },
          },
          

          Thank you for your patience and assistance! You are amazing!

            @UncleRoger no position, as there is no UI…

              @UncleRoger I ran your config in debug ( npm start dev) with a stop on the actual sendNotification and it happens once every minute.

              I don’t have pages or carousel installed…

                @MMRIZE said in Simple(?) module to send a notification every x minutes?:

                But sending notifications is harmless, so I put it into start, just for example.

                not harmless to the receiver if not setup yet

                  I’ve no clue how to run it the way you did with the stop and all, but I did start commenting out modules and it seems that MMM-pages is the culprit.

                  Without it, SendNotification works fine but when it’s active, SendNotification sends multiple notifications per second:
                  9ecae590-6ded-457d-95e8-22d29295e0a3-image.png
                  It may be that MMM-pages is suspending and resuming MMM-SendNotification with each change, even though it’s set as “fixed”, and maybe that’s triggering it?

                  It may be that this is just something that won’t work for me.

                  I really appreciate your help!

                      @UncleRoger ok… it was pages (for the error)

                      if you are using my fork

                          cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Pages
                          git pull 
                      

                      if u are NOT using my fork

                      cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
                      

                      then rename the MMM-Pages folder out of the way (the command is mv)
                      then

                      git clone https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Pages
                      

                      also, two parms need to be added

                      here is the updated config

                      			{
                              module: 'MMM-Pages',
                              config: {
                                      modules:
                                          [[ "page1" ],
                                           [ "page2" ],
                                      //     [ "page3"],
                                          ],
                                      fixed: [ "fixed" ],
                                      hiddenPages: {
                                          "screenSaver": [ "screensaver_page" ],
                                          "admin": [ "admin_page" ],
                                      },
                                      animationTime: 10000,
                                      rotationTime: 10000,
                              }
                            }
                      

                      rotationtime defaults to 0!!!
