Maybe we find some other users for testing. Cannot imagine that I´am the only one…
I don’t see anything wrong with this module. It does not report any errors in the console or the terminal. It does not affect other modules. See my picture below. GQuotes is running happily in between two other modules. Perhaps there was some failure in your install of MM, or the Pi you are using. Have you changed any of the system or module files?

Hi guys,
I just found the reason that was causing the error. There was a typo in the position in the config :face_palm:
Sorry for causing such trouble! Now it is working like a charm :)F.
-
That’s good @Fistandantilus :))
@cowboysdude i noticed today, that the quote did not updated. Any suggestion why?
-
Wow . . . and . . . wow
-
@Fistandantilus LOL well it happens…
-
hi @cowboysdude
at which time does the quotes getting updated? does it change at a specific time? depends this time on your timezone?every morning (CEST) i see the same quote like in the evening. at the homepage it is getting updated at 02.00 a.m. that would be nice if your module is getting updated at the same time. so i see each morning the new quote.
is this possible?
-
@pauabaer It checks the date on the file…
-
Hm.
i found this entry in the xml file:
2017-05-09T00:05:45+01:00But it did not get updated at this time.
-
@pauabaer If you found that entry in an xml file then you’re looking at the wrong module…this one doesn’t have an xml file the quote comes from an xml file but doesn’t look at or use the time from that xml file. This module creates a json file and adds a time stamp to it. It then checks the timestamp of the file it saves.
Probably what is happening is that it is going out and if the date if different it’s rewriting the file and if the quote hasn’t changed by then it’s just rewriting this file with a new timestamp and not updating as it should.
I changed the update interval for this you can do a git pull to update and see if that works better.
This is what it says: “timestamp”:“5/4/2017”
The only other option is to take the cache out and have it update hourly… so let me look at it and we’ll see. The only problem is that it may change the quote more then daily…
At any rate I have to actually go to my job… I like eating and having a place to live… my hobby will have to wait until later when I have time to look at it. ;)

Of course, let your hobby wait. :D there are more important things to do.
tonight i will do a gi pull and give a feedback. Thank you so far!
