            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 {
                  content: url("/css/icons/day.svg");
                  padding-left: 60px;
                  padding-top: 7px;
                  height: 100px;
                  }
                  
                  .current .wi-day-cloudy {
                  content: url("/css/icons/cloudy-day-1.svg");
                  padding-left: 60px;
                  padding-top: 7px;
                  height: 100px;
                  }

                    @Manu85 and you restarted MM, correct?
                    can u open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i on the browser being used to display MM,

                    then select the elements tab, and the pointer in the top left corner and move the mouse over the page content til it select all the current weather content, then click

                    on the right side you will see the css classes used and where they came from
                    main.css at the bottom and the stck over overrides bottom to top…

                    strikethru means overridden by some class higher up

                    in the module css you should see the name current

                    here is alink to a topic about using the dev window elements tab
                    https://forum.magicmirror.builders/post/90135

                    here I used forecast (.forecast in the custom.css) the yellow rectangles mark the content of interest
                    top left confirms that the the classes: was used
                    bottom left indicates the icon class to be used
                    top right shows that icon class, and its source (right edge)
