Problems with MagicMirror modules, Calendar, weather-forecast, newsfeed

[A Former User]

Hello,
I have some Problems with modules at my MagicMirror. Actually I use the default modules but they don’t work as I want.

At first my Code in config.js

var config = {

	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
	                                                       // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
	                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
	                                                       // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
	                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],

	language: "de",
	timeFormat: 24,
	units: "metric",

	modules: [
		{
			module: "alert",
		},
		{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar"
		},
		{
			module: "clock",
			position: "top_left"
		},
		{
			module: "calendar",
			position: "top_left",
			config: {
				calendars: [
					{
						url: "url google-Calendar",
						fetchInterval: "60000",
						timeFormat: "relative",
						displaySymbol: "false"
					},
					{
						url: "url 2nd google-Calendar",
						fetchInterval: "60000",
						timeFormat: "relative",
						displaySymbol: "false"
					}
				]
			}
		},
		{
			module: "currentweather",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				location: "Mering",
				locationID: "2871813",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
				appid: "My Appid from openweathermap"
			}
		},
		{
			module: "weatherforecast",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				location: "Mering",
				locationID: "2871813",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
				appid: "My Appid from openweathermap"
			}
		},
		{
			module: "newsfeed",
			position: "bottom_left",
			config: {
				feeds: [
					{
						title: "Nachrichten",
						url: "http://www.tagesschau.de/xml/rss2"
					}
				],
				showPublishDate: "false",
				showSourceTitle: "true",
				showDescription: "true",
				updateInterval: "15000"
			}
		},
	]

};

/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/
if (typeof module !== "undefined") {module.exports = config;}

My first problem is with the calendar-module
It doesn’t matter what I use for config-parameter. I alwas get the calendar-symbol in front of the event.

2nd Problem with weather-forecast.
A lot of people have problems with this module. At least a lot of people say that it doesn’t show.
At my program it also doesn’t work. But the currentweather is displayes. It’s the same appid. Also if I comment out the currentweather module the weather-forecast isn’t displayed.
I also tried other weather-forecast modules but no one worked.

My last problem is with the newsfed-module.
The title isn’t displayed. The PublishDate is set “false”, but it’s displayed.

So, I have a lot of problems with the configuration of the modules and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

I hope anybody can help me with these problems.

@Johannes said in Problems with MagicMirror modules, Calendar, weather-forecast, newsfeed:

First problem, I use MMM-MyCalendar witch has more options for config and is working great. Try this one. And there are errors in your config.sys

{
	module: "calendar",
	position: "top_left",
	config: {
		calendars: [
			{
				url: "url google-Calendar",
				fetchInterval: 60000,
				timeFormat: "relative",
				displaySymbol: false
			},
			{
				url: "url 2nd google-Calendar",
				fetchInterval: 60000,
				timeFormat: "relative",
				displaySymbol: false
			}
		]
	}
},

There are problems with Weather forecast, there is work in progress. Link to News Item.

For your last problem there are some errors in your config.sys. Number and false/true never use “…” or ‘…’

{
  module: "newsfeed",
	position: "bottom_left",
	config: {
		feeds: [
			{
				title: "Nachrichten",
				url: "http://www.tagesschau.de/xml/rss2"
			}
		],
		showPublishDate: false,
		showSourceTitle: true,
		showDescription: true,
		updateInterval: 15000
	}
},

Thank you for your answer.
I’ll remove the quotes at numbers and true/false. I also will try MMM-MyCalendar .
