MMM-Page-Selector: A page switcher that can set positions of modules

Thanks again for implementing the current page as “dynamic” class. If I get it right, you had to code procedures to add and remove the page class when switching pages.

Ok, the development branch now has support for the new class name changes. When a module is shown on a page, it will be given the class page_{Current Page} and then the class will be removed when the module is hidden.

Would it be possible to make these procedures accessible via notifications? I am still looking for a way to add and remove classes based on external triggers. A scheme could be like this:

Notification: "MMM_Page-Selector_Update_Class"
Payload: {"add":["Module_1_Name:ClassA_to_add", "Module_2_Name:ClassB_to_add"], "remove":["Module_3_Name:ClassC_to_remove", "Module_4_Name:ClassD_to_remove"]}

If I am understanding what you are asking for correctly, this function seems to be out of the scope that Page-Selector encompasses. I would develop a module to include this functionality, but I have been inactive in the world of Magic Mirror as of lately. As it stands, I would post this request to the module suggestions forum or ask somebody to include it in a module that has a closer association with this type of purpose. MMM-Remote-Control could be a good candidate.

OK - thanks for the reply anyway!

Hi all

To make MMM-page-indicator work with MMM-Page-Selector, we must add MMM-page-indicator in to pages

{
			module: "MMM-page-indicator",
			position: "bottom_bar",
			"pages": {"Home": "bottom_bar", "News": "bottom_bar","Weather": "bottom_bar","Entertaiment": "bottom_bar","Smarthome": "bottom_bar","System": "bottom_bar"},	
          	config: {
			pages: 6,
			}
		},

@Johans

pages: "all",

You forgot the quotation mark before and after pages

"pages": "all",

I love this module especially in use together with the MMM-navbar.
Is there any config using existing code that will let me make it return me to “default” page after a given period of time after changing page?

@Brandenborg
This is not a default function of this module. However, if you can edit a small amount of code, it should be easy to implement.
Just copy these lines of code right after line 235 of MMM-Page-Selector.js. This lines should be selectPage(payload);

clearTimeout(self.default_timeout);
if(![0, this.config.defaultPage].includes(payload)){
    self.default_timeout = setTimeout(() => {
        selectPage(this.config.defaultPage);
    }, TIME)
}

Then just replace TIME with the number of milliseconds you want to remain on the page before it automatically switches back to default. You may also have to change the 0 in the if statement if your default page isn’t at the 0th position.

@Veldrovive thanks a lot. I should manage that.
I recon the 0 position is the first page I define the contents of?

Veldrovive

@Brandenborg
The 0 should be the position of your default page in the page list. The furthest left is 0.

Thanks. And thank you for a really useful module!
