      hey guys,

      what about a module, that shows a QR-Code, which can directly connect visitors to your wifi-network.
      like this: https://lifehacker.com/create-a-qr-coded-easy-access-guest-wi-fi-network-with-1790278590

      that would be a great addition in my opinion, and if someone knows how to do this it would be great :D

        Yeah, this sounds nice! I’m currently working on a module that shows a QR-Code next to the newsfeed to get to the corresponding news article fast and convenient.

        When I’m done with that I could write such a module.

          That sounds great. I was thinking about using the MMM-Globe module, cause its able to show a picture from every source.
          Also u could just generate the QR-Code as a picture and use this source.
          But a seperate Module would ne easier for newbies i think.

              actually i do it with the MMM-ImagePhotos module

              sudo apt-get install qrencode
              
              qrencode -t png -o ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-ImagesPhotos/uploads/guest_wifi_config.png 'WIFI:S:mywifi-SSID;T:WPA2;P:wifipassword;;'
              

              thats it.
              But to help newbies creating ideas, what they can do with their MagicMirror i thought it would be easier to create an own module, (without the updateintervall which is used by the ImagesPhotos module.)

                      i need to say, that i was searching long times in this forum and everywhere else to find the most modules.
                      Cause in the “official” 3rd Party modules list, there are much less modules then actually exist.
                      even the “MMM-EasyPix” module i have never heard about, although i already looked at mykle’s profile^^

                      But i think especially the MagicMirror project is a very good way for newbies to learn about programming and so on. Mostly simple handling at all and a great community ;)

                        @cruunnerr said in MMM-Wifi_QR-Code:

                        That’s true. If the module developer doesn’t “register” his module in the 3rd Party Modules list (or publish it on the forum) then you would never know about it. The module developer is not compelled to register any or all of their modules. I have one or two that never made the hit parade. :-)

                        even the “MMM-EasyPix” module i have never heard about, although i already looked at mykle’s profile^^

                        Well, it’s right there in my profile and in the 3rd Party Modules list. I hope you find it useful. :-)
