<![CDATA[newsfeed]]>I am trying to run newsfeed.
my config file looks like this.

                {
                        module: "newsfeed",
                        position: "bottom_bar",
                        animateIn: "slideInLeft",
                        animateOut: "slideOutRight",
                        config: {
                          feeds: [
                            {
                              title: "New York Times",
                        //       url: "https://rss.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml"
                              url: "https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml",
                            },
                          ],
                          showSourceTitle: true,
                          showPublishDate: true,
                          broadcastNewsFeeds: true,
                          broadcastNewsUpdates: true
                        }
                      },


]
};

/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/
if (typeof module !== "undefined") {module.exports = config;}

However I just get no news at the moment. Can someone look to see if I have made an error?

Best wishes.

OK, back to newsfeed behavior…

Proxmox/#magicmirror-server-lxc

so the files are NOT in exactly the same place… (they are linked into the container is the same logical place)

Proxmox/#magicmirror-server-lxc

related question: In the[recent] past my system has always restarted Magic Mirror when i commit a change to config.js using control-O, but lately it doesn’t and I have to manually restart MM. Is this expected behavior?

this is provided by PM2 file change detection… it is inconsistent, and I haven’t found any reason… for me it has NEVER worked on pi, or linux… but used to ALWAYS work on mac… (but now doesn’t as well) …

in my config to setup the MagicMirror app I use a json file that provides that configuration.

I don’t see any change in the pm2 doc for this

{
  "apps" : [{
    "name"        : "MagicMirror",
    "script"      : "/home/pi/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh",
    "watch"       : ["/home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js"]  <-----  I adjust this for user and path 
  }]
}

I jsut added your url to my config.js file and I now get the BBC just fine.

I also wonder whether the "{ " and “}” brackets are required but missing in your feeds array? I have each feed url in its own brackets and it works for me. See my config below, modified to add your BBC url.

@sdetweil - related question: In the[recent] past my system has always restarted Magic Mirror when i commit a change to config.js using control-O, but lately it doesn’t and I have to manually restart MM. Is this expected behavior?

Here is the file MagicMirror/config/config.js now correctly displaying BBC news.

{module: "newsfeed",
     disabled: false,
     tableClass: "small",
     position: "bottom_center",    // bottom_center bottom_bar
     config: {
     feeds: [
        { title: "New York Times", url: "https://rss.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml" },
        { title: "BBC", url: "https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml"},
        { title: "Las Vegas Review Journal", url: "https://www.reviewjournal.com/feed/" },
        { title: "Detroit Metro Times", url: "https://www.metrotimes.com/detroit/Rss.xml" },
           ],
           reloadInterval: 600000, // Content fetch interval - 600000 = 10 minutes
           updateInterval: 15000, //Display new headline interval - default = 10000 milliseconds / 10 seconds
           showSourceTitle: true,
           showPublishDate: true,
           broadcastNewsFeeds: false,
           broadcastNewsUpdates: false
                } },

it looks like your changes are not in the config.js being used

When I run the program all I see is the news for NYT and not BBC.
I am not really sure where to look for the files. Just in case it make a difference, I download MagicMirror using https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/#magicmirror-server-lxc
As I am using Proxmox.

Best wishes.
