Help to modify existing modules

Weather usually requires that you enter a location ID of some sort, so that the module knows what information to display.

Newsfeed? Do a google search for an .rss newsfeed that interests you, local to you and/or in your native language. You’ll need the url to that newsfeed to add to the module.

MMM-Holiday2? Change the country code in the config.

The README file included with each module has directions for use

Holiday module that should work for your country…

Hello,
I am a beginner in this field. I’m stuck for the following things:
1- Modify the rss stream while I modify it in the configuration file newsfeed.js with a new url: http://www.lemonde.fr/rss/une.xml
2- I will also activate the color weather on the MagicMirror by setting my country of origin.
For the moment, I managed to edit compliments
Thank you very much for your help.

Sorry,

I found or had to modify the parameters for the rss feed (MagicMirror/config/config.js).

Now I try to display the color weather of my country.

What weather module are you using?

Hi,
I use module currentweather and weatherforecast.
Here’s my configuration :

			module: "currentweather",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				location: "Saint Nicolas d'Aliermont",
				locationID: "https://openweathermap.org/city/2977892",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
				appid: "MyAPI"
			}
		},
		{
			module: "weatherforecast",
			position: "top_right",
			header: "Weather Forecast",
			config: {
				location: "Saint Nicolas d'Aliermont",
				locationID: "https://openweathermap.org/city/2977892",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
				appid: "MyAPI"

No information is displayed on screen.

Thank you for you help

Change your locationID in both modules to this:

locationID: "2977892",

And, of course, enter your apiKey in both
