CSS modifications on a module which has no own css styles?

[sdetweil]

@rkorell the part of the css before the { is called the
selector clause.

it ‘selects’ the elements that the stuff between {} will be applied to

they can be quite complex, like here in my mmm-config to change an element in a generated form

.possibly-hidden-tab div:nth-child(2)  > div > div >div >ul >li:only-child >a[rel*="Item%201"] {
  display: none;
}

so you just have to describe how to target those elements

[rkorell]

@sdetweil ,
Dear Sam,
yes, I know and the selector clause is exactly what I’m struggling to find.
I’ve managed to see several clauses like your example with “nth-child” and several wild namings in other cases.
But in th given case I cannot “pick” the clause.

If I select the text in developer console (see image) “Kein Element ausgewählt” which tranlates to “no element selected”.
Consecutively it is not possible to extract the “inner HTML” or even the “CSS Path” - which in other circumstances is offered via right mouse context-menu…

So how can I figure out the selector clause?

Thanks!
Ralf

@rkorell

.module-name     div.module-block-end {
   color:....;
}

[rkorell]

@sdetweil would this work with the classes name as well?

[sdetweil]

@rkorell yes. as a replacement for module_name

when you select the element in the dev window
down at the bottom is the selector clause prototype

[rkorell]

@sdetweil unfortunately your suggestion doesn’t work…
And I cannot see anything “at the button” ?

Defnitely no “selector clause prototype”

[rkorell]

This is complete view in Firefox Browser

[sdetweil]

@rkorell there is an extra close div after the span

where does it open

[rkorell]

@rkorell
This same in Chrome

where does it open

<div module>
<div class "module content">
<div Style "margin-block-end">
  <span class> font-awesome-picture
" HERE THE TEXT"
</div>
</div>
</div>

The " <div class “module content”> " is identified by
"#module_10_MMM-JsonValue > div:nth-child(2) " (for the first instance of module)
second and following instances are counted up consecutively
"#module_11_MMM-JsonValue > div:nth-child(2) "
"#module_12_MMM-JsonValue > div:nth-child(2) "
"#module_13_MMM-JsonValue > div:nth-child(2) "

[rkorell]

#module_10_MMM-JsonValue > div:nth-child(2) {
   color: "fuchsia";
}

Doesn’t work, either :-(

[sdetweil]

@rkorell prototype

[sdetweil]

@rkorell maybe that will work

if you change it in the input area, does change

[sdetweil]

@rkorell

.module-content div {
color:
}

[rkorell]

@sdetweil Ahhhh…
THIS “bottom” …
Sorry for misinterpreting this.
Will try your suggestion.

[rkorell]

@sdetweil
Unfortunately

.MB-Wetter-Temp .module-content div {
color: "fuchsia";
}

doesn’t work :-(

May you are much faster than me?
If you mind to try MMM-JsonValue with this

		{   /// WIND
			module: "MMM-JsonValue",
			position: "top_right",
			classes: "MB-Wetter-Wind",
			disabled: false,
			config: {
				apiBase: 'https://api.weather.com/v2/pws/observations/current?stationId=IGEROL23&format=json&units=m&numericPrecision=decimal&apiKey=e0658025e8d74a2da58025e8d70a2ddf',
				method: "GET",
				title: "", // Widget Title, set to null if not needed
				icon: "fa-solid fa-wind", // Font Awesome icon, displayed before any text, set to null if not needed
				prefix: "  Wind:  ", //   "Quote: \"" ---  Text displayed before the value, can be a blank String ""
				suffix: " m/s", // "\" (from https://api.quotable.io/random)" ----- Text displayed after the value, can be a blank String ""
				jsonPath: "$.observations[:1].metric.windSpeed", // value in the json to display, the module use https://github.com/dchester/jsonpath for parsing. Note: if $ is not the first character in your path, it will be added for backward-compatibility reason.

				refreshInterval: 5 * 1000 * 60, // refresh every 5 minutes
				debug: false,
				skipPadding: false, // yo can un-comment this line if you want to display a related value below; using a second instance.
			}
		 },		 

code snippet in config.js …
Gives you the windspeed on my weather station monitored by wunderground …

Thanks again !

SO close… the color is NOT in quotes (in css)
sorry I missed that before

.MB-Wetter-Wind .module-content div {
  color: blue;
}

here I am using the dev window to override the blue to red… see the top right of the right column , note that the one from custom.css (just below), is strikethru to say it is overridden by something higher up
if you uncheck the checkbox in front of the color:red; it will disable that value and the strikethru will go away and the text will be blue

I guess your own CSS modification has enabled this…
Without this the entry #text doesn’t have any opportunity to change anything…

You’ve made my day!
THANKS a LOT!!!

you are not styling the TEXT, you are styling the DIV that HOLDS the text
(my css entry commented out, and the div selected)
you cannot target the ‘text’ itself… only whatever holds it (p, div, span, table data…)
