      @Manu85 the code block wrapper only matters here in the forums.

      don’t use it anywhere else

      I just wanted to tell you if you copied the css info from another place, to examine the shape of the double quotes. if they are curved
      “
      and not straight

      "
      

      then this will cause problems in the css file, it did for me.

        @sdetweil I did the manipulation on this forum and the text that I copied into my custom css has this form:
        .weather .wi-day-sunny {
        content: url(“/css/icons/day.svg”);
        }

              @Manu85 show me a couple entries from you custom.css now

              remember to use the code block

              and the icons ARE in the css/icons folder, correct?
              mine are in css/icons/static , as I unzipped the zip file from your link into the css/icons folder

              .weather .wi-day-sunny {
              content: url("/css/icons/static/day.svg");
              }
              
              .weather .wi-day-cloudy {
              content: url("/css/icons/static/cloudy-day-1.svg");
              }

                @sdetweil dans mon custom css j’ai fait ces entrées par exemple (je ne sais pas si c’est ce que vous voulez…):

                /*
                 * SONDE DHT 22 temperature interieur
                */
                #dht_temp {
                  font-size: 40px;
                
                /*
                 * TEMPERATURE CPU
                */
                }
                #pi_temp {
                  font-size: 30px;
                }
                
                /*
                 * CALENDRIER ICONES AGENDA
                */
                .fa.fa-male {
                  color: #2B60DE; /* Dodger Blue */
                }
                .fa.fa-birthday-cake {
                  color: #ff0000; /* Red */
                }
                 
                .fa.fa-trash-o {
                  color: #00FF00; /* Green */
                }
                
                .fa.fa-calendar {
                  color: #F660AB; /* Hot Pink */

                      @Manu85 said in Changing icons of the modules Current Weather and Weather Forecast:

                      > content: url(“/css/icons/rainy-6.svg”);
                      

                      note that the quotes are leaning, not straight up and down

                      change like this

                      content: url("/css/icons/rainy-6.svg");

                        @sdetweil do they have to be like that? because that’s how they were before I modified them with </>

                          @Manu85 they ALL must be straight up and down…

                          I was warning you that the copy you did originally had the wrong quote marks

                          they ALL MUST BE ONLY

                                      Your precious help allowed me to succeed in having the icons on the mirror :-), I added a few lines in the custom to position each icon, for example:
                                      .weather .wi-day-sunny {
                                      content: url(“/css/icons/day.svg”);
                                      padding-left: 60px;
                                      padding-top: 7px;
                                      height: 50px;
                                      }
                                      the last thing to do is how to manage the current day icon (position and size) because on the original file there was a part:.currentweather .weathericon { and another part:.weatherforecast .weathericon {
                                      Following your help I named everything: .weather .weathericon { so that it works and I think that now it no longer makes a difference between current and forecast and I cannot manage the icon of the current day. Do you have any ideas on how to handle this?
                                      Thank you for your valuable help

                                        @Manu85 yes the current/forecast are not unique modules now…but mm provides a way to differentiate between two of the same module

                                        you can add arbitrary names that are used in the class of the module in the html tree, and then use that class in your custom.css

                                        I wish I had thought of the sooner

                                        in the config.js for one of the weather modules, showing forecast for instance, after the module name line add

                                            module:"weather",
                                            classes:"forecast",
                                        ...
                                        ...
                                        

                                        then in the custom.css, for the icons used in forecast change the primary selector
                                        from

                                        .weather
                                        

                                        to

                                        .forecast
                                        

                                        if I had thought of this first, we would have just added the two classes lines in config.js

                                        one for currentweather and one for weatherforecast, each on the appropriate weather module instance

                                            @sdetweil I tried but it doesn’t work, I don’t know if I did things wrong, in config.js I added the line < classes: “current”,’ > I changed forecast to current:

                                            {
                                            			disabled: false,
                                            			module: "weather",
                                            			classes: "current",
                                            			position: "top_right",
                                            			header: "Meteo Ile d'Olonne",
                                            			config: {
                                            				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
                                            				type: "current",
                                            				location: "Olonne-sur-Mer,France",
                                            				locationID: "2989572", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
                                            				apiKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
                                            			}
                                            		},
                                            		
                                            		{
                                            			disabled: false,
                                            			module: "weather",
                                            			position: "top_right",
                                            			header: "Meteo",
                                            			config: {
                                            				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
                                            				type: "forecast",
                                            				location: "Olonne-sur-Mer,France",
                                            				locationID: "2989572", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
                                            				apiKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
                                            				
                                            			}
                                            

                                            then I changed the first part of the lines in my custom ccs by adding current, I send you the first lines, but it doesn’t change anything, the icons are still identical:

                                            /* Aenderungen Wetter Icon */
                                            /* Aenderungen aktuelles Wetter */
                                            
                                            .current .weathericon {
                                              position: absolute;
                                              z-index: 0;
                                              height: 200px;
                                              right: 180px;
                                              margin-top: -65px;
                                            }
                                            
                                            .current .wi-day-sunny {

                                            }
                                            
                                            .current .wi-day-cloudy {
