<![CDATA[How to display both Celsius and Fahrenheit]]>Hi community,

New to playing with Magic Mirror platform and first Raspberry pi project.

As the header eludes I am trying to figure out whether it is possible to display both Celsius and Fahrenheit together, the ideal would be to display 10°C / 50°F (In case wondering why the need for both, the context is that I am British and my partner is American). I am familiar with how to set metric or imperial both globally and per module, and would rather not duplicate modules for the sake of having both standards.

So far, searching on this forum and others only finds posts seeking to solve issues where imperial is displayed instead of metric and vice versa. I had wondered whether there was a js solution, but I’m not familiar with the language so would need to read up on it.

Not sure whether a config file is useful, but can share if needed. Currently using openweathermap as weather provider, and have been able to display Celsius or Fahrenheit but not both together. Any help or pointers to a solution welcome.

all of the default modules support multi instance

By way of an update, I did explore your suggestion of a second instance, there are a few posts describing how to duplicate the default modules. I did pause this aspect of the project to work on other aspects until I worked out how to implement it (the thought of near exact duplicate modules at once was ghastly, and the idea of stripping the second to just imperial and merging it somehow with metric was headache inducing).

I came back to this after finding MMM-Pages and it cycled quite nicely every 15 seconds between the metric and imperial display. Happy partner, happy me.

Well, that was until I installed the MMM-GoogleTasks module which broke MMM-Pages. But, your input on the MMM-GoogleTasks not compatible with MMM-pages, MMM-Carousel, or MMM-ModuleScheduler thread solved that!

Anyway, thank you. Much appreciated on both counts.

the modules are designed for single temp range at a time
