      I think you can modify MMM-HTMLBox for your purpose. It can read local html file and show it on MM.

        How do I get it to refresh? I added it to “refresh_interval_sec: 60,” but it does not seem to refresh. If I “Ctrl+R” i refreshes and shows changes.

        Other than that it works great!!!
        This is my test pi, the list from HTMLBox is in the upper right.

          You are right. I did some mistakes about refreshing. (I didn’t test it. sorry)
          I think it was caused by caching.
          You can made hot-fix about that.

          In line 58 of MMM-HTMLBox.js

          xmlHttp.open("GET", url, true)
          

          modify it like this;

          xmlHttp.open("GET", url + "?" + Date.now(), true)
          

          I think it will work. sorry.

            @Sean said in Module to display a local list?:

            xmlHttp.open(“GET”, url + “?” + Date.now(), true)

            I did this but no change, it still will not update…

              Weird. Is Your local file updated periodically? Can you show your config for this module?
              I’ve tested it now, and it works definitely.

                Darn it, I was changing the update time in the module but not the config. It works now, thanks for all your help, this is a fantastic module!!!
