      I am very new to this so please go easy. I have been searching all afternoon on the forum trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong to no avail. I have the date, weather forecast, and calendar all set to top left on my mirror. The problem is the weatherforecast is set to display 7 days but will only display 5. I tried adding the following to my custom.css but it still doesn’t work.

      }
      .weatherforecast .maxnumberofdays {
      7;
      }

      I also tried deleting my calendar out of the config.js file thinking that I was running out of room on the monitor, but still only got 5 lines of weather.
      Any help would be greatly appreciated as my head is just about mush from beating it against the wall.![alt text]0_1534032279997_mm pic.JPG

        OK after going back and reading the readme I figured out that I needed to put the configuration in my config.js I tried this and at 7 it only shows 5 entries. If I change it to 2 it will only display 2 as it should. I think my problem is the module sizing is wrong. Where do I change the height?

        thanks for any help.

          There is something odd going on with that module (I think). I can’t get it to display more than 7 days, but everything below that value works as expected. Notice that maxNumberOfDays: 7, has no quotes.

          {
          			module: "weatherforecast",
          			position: "top_right",
          			header: "Weather Forecast",
          			config: {
          				location: "New York",
          				locationID: "5128581",
          				appid: "YOUR API KEY",
                          maxNumberOfDays: 7,
                          colored: true,
          			}
          		},

            I took out the entry from my custom.css and put it in the config.js like it’s supposed to be. I’ve been getting the same results anything 5 or under works just fine. Don’t tell me I’ve been beating my head against the wall unnecessarily. Ugh.

                With the free option of openweathermaps the maximum is 5 days.
