@uros76 yes, it was https://github.com/glitch452/MMM-ViewNotifications

And I just want to add here that I’m running it on a Raspberry Pi with a 7-inch screen, so there’s not much screen space to work with. I don’t have room for the weather module with the ‘current’ option as well. However, after testing, it seems to work perfectly fine to keep the module ‘hidden’ by simply omitting a location in the config.js file

I’m considering making the rain direction controlled by the wind direction from the Weather module. If it’s possible, it would look pretty neat.

@cgillinger yes, commenting out the psosition still allows the module to work in the background…
also do this for calendar with Ext3 family of modules

I installed the MMM-Logging and checked the npm start console for any hint of notifications coming through

yes, if they don’t print a console message then its not in the the log for logging to forward…

Well that’s interesting. I will keep trying to get this one to work. Not sure why it’s refusing to workfor me

On my test MM install the weather effects work. This confirms the module is getting the notification broadcast from wethaer after all.

But the viewnotifications module doesn’t come up. I will keep it running for a bit longer to see if notifications show up. Even the newsfeed notifications should come up I think…
It’s not the end of the world, I am just digging into why I can’t see notifications :)

what position is it in?

[uros76]

@sdetweil top_left. It should show up under the clock.

@uros76 did you use the default config?

 {
            module: 'MMM-ViewNotifications',
            position: "top_left",
            header: "Notifications",
            classes:"page1",  // for MMM-pages
            config: {
                // See below for Configuration Options
            }
},

[uros76]

@sdetweil yes I used the default config. I also added timeout: 0 to see if I perhaps missed them. Default is 8sec timeout before notifications disappear.
