Change newsfeed title to image/logo?

Got lots of config errors copying that…weird…

Checking file… /home/pi/MagicMirror/config/config.js
Line 192 col 1 Expected ‘}’ to match ‘{’ from line 160 and instead saw ‘]’.
Line 193 col 2 Expected ‘]’ to match ‘[’ from line 28 and instead saw ‘}’.
Line 193 col 3 Expected ‘}’ to match ‘{’ from line 11 and instead saw ‘;’.
Line 193 col 4 Missing semicolon.

Had to add an extra close bracket }

Yeah, I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out where I was missing something… Generally it was a missing comma at the end of a config line which had additional content following it or misplacing the { or }.
Also, the modules are loaded in order as they appear in the config so if you want a couple of things in the top left (denoted by the location parameter “position”: “top_left”, the first module will be the top left and the second module read would be just below that.

I have it working now after adding the extra bracket, but as stated above its’ a little big for portrait mode…it’s running a bit sluggish but i expect thats more of a raspberry pi issue…changing the font % in custom.css didnt seem to shrink it any for me

My Apologies for the issues you are having, but, I am looking over the code to make these fixes and I am not seeing any of the problems you are describing…

Any way you could show me the specific places these errors are occurring?

I ran it through an error checker and it’s not finding any errors…

@justjim1220 My apologies to you! The module is working just fine for me now…took a little tinkering but I got it.

The only issue I’m having now is re-sizing and maybe getting it to run a little smoother (again that might be a limitation of the Pi) Can’t seem to get a full headline in before it switches…but I’ll mess around with it

Great module…thanks for your work

@cyberphox

Thanks!
Glad you like it.

What did you have to tinker with to get it working?

[cyberphox]

@mykle1 I have a Synology NAS running Docker…I really need to learn how to install this all in a docker package and edit it and run it from the Server…

[cyberphox]

@justjim1220 Literally I was just missing a } after copying and pasting somehow…

@striiker

Add this to custom.css, Make the changes you want in it…

.MMM-NewsFeedTicker {
    height: 100px;
    background-color: maroon;
    opacity: 1.0;
}

.MMM-NewsFeedTicker .headline {
    padding-top: 15px;
    font-size: 100%;
}

.MMM-NewsFeedTicker .image {
  height: 100px;
  background-color: #FFF;
}

Let me know if you have any problems with this.

I am glad that you like it! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I added the lines to the custom.css and adjusted as follows. I still see the scrolling text as full size / cut off (screenshot of section included…

.MMM-NewsFeedTicker {
    height: 50px;
    background-color: maroon;
    opacity: 0.5;
}

.MMM-NewsFeedTicker .headline {
    padding-top: 15px;
    font-size: 50%;
}

.MMM-NewsFeedTicker .image {
  height: 50px;
  background-color: #FFF;
}
