Of course I feel like it.

But the latest is the coolest, don’t you think?

No doubt! I’m a huge fan of this module. :thumbsup:

My MagicMirror is updating around 23:00 hour, and can’t find what I did wrong. Has nothing to do with the time zone (I think).

This is what I have in my config.js

{
  module: 'MMM-doomsday',
  position: 'top_center',
  config: {
    doomsDay: '2017-03-31 24:00:00',
    toWhat: 'End of month'
  }
},

I even made a test file in my browser, and then it’s is working as aspected.
Does any one now where the problem is.

@pjkoeleman nope, probably a timezone issue on the Pi itself, does the clock work correctly? daylight saving time?

Try changing the time from 24:00:00 to 23:59:00

@broberg The Pi itself is working correctly, the clock module is giving me the right time and date. And is updating around midnight.

I Will try 23:59 and see what come’s out off it.

With time set to 23:59 the module is changing at 0:44. The question is were is the offset off 45 minutes comming from ?

I’m not trying to answer for broberg. It’s his module, but I use this module and I’ve had great success with it. It’s possible that the module is changing at 0:44 if you have the default updateInterval: 60 * 60 * 1000, . If you started the mirror at 44 minutes past any hour, then it wouldn’t update until the next 44 minute mark. If this is your case, then your module updated at 23:44 and not again until 0:44. The logical solution would be to set the updateInterval: to a smaller value or launch the module exactly on the hour, if that’s even possible. I don’t know if the module is set to always update at 24:00. If it’s not, then I would humbly request that it be added to the module.

@Mykle1 You are right, changed it to 10 minutes. now have to wait what happens.
