limited to 100 query by day and 50 query for 12 hours

It’s not me who have set this limit but it’s news api
and sorry, i don’t work in news api too ! :)

so now just a little calc…

you have 10 query and refresh is set to 15m

for one query for one hour (every 15min) => 4 query
for 10 query for one hour (every 15 min) => 4*10 = 40 query

in 12 hours with one query => 12 * 4 = 48 query / 50 max
in 12 hours with 10 query => 12* 40 = 480 query / 50 max

in 24 hours with one query => 24 * 4 => 96 query / 100 Max
in 24 hours with 10 query => 24*40 => 960 query / 100 max

That why you have this error… and I just calc the number of query

{
   sources: "fox-news, fox-sports",
},

–> result: it take 9 query (take a lot of resource)

{
   country: "us",
   className: "redTitle",
 },

–> result: it take just one query

Note: personnaly, i use only redTitle of my country
Note 2: i will add soon a counter for calc if number of query is correct

@Bugsounet Ok thanks for the detailed explanation. Here is my config now so hopefully this should resolve it.

},
		{
  		module: "MMM-News",
  		position: "bottom_bar",
  		config: {
    		apiKey : "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    		type: "horizontal",
    		query : [
      		{
        country: "us",
        className: "redTitle",
      },
    ],
	touchable: false,
	scanInterval: 1000*60*30
  }
},

perfect, it should work perfectly now

[swvalenti]

Oddly the sizing of the module just randomly changed and got smaller. How do I make the entire module bigger to fill out the bottom_bar? I went into CSS but nothing I did seem to change anything.

[swvalenti]

I added this to custom css but just doesn’t look right. What could have changed the sizing as nothing was updated from the default install? I uninstalled and re-installed and same thing.

body  {
transform:scale(1.0);
}
.MMM-News {
transform:scale(1,1.75);
}

“Oddly”, i have not touch to the css code
and “Oddly” i don’t touche the main code
and “Oddly” I run this module in 3 differents RPI
and “Oddly” … this is no problem !

so try to disable all module one by one (except this modules), disable custom.css too

and “Oddly”, you will see : it works…

Hi everyone, newby here… first of all, MMM-news is great, thanks for make it… i am building a MM for my GF Bday.
i want to know 2 things, it is possible to add QR to MMM-news? and anyone knows if there is any API about lifestyle and fashion?

[DJBOOB66]

@killk MMM-NewsFeed it has QR

[KillK]

@djboob66 i have try it, but isn`t possible on windows

[swvalenti]

Images stopped working the other day. I don’t see anything in the logs or dev window. Any thoughts?

[swvalenti]

Seems like the module might not be maintained anymore by developer but seems like they’re several active contributors. How do I fix the image issue when I don’t see much in the logs? Willing to learn and fix this as there are not really any news options for the MM anymore. Thanks, Scott

[mumblebaj]

@swvalenti Hi. I don’t maintain the module anymore. You an try the newer MMM-NewsAPI

[swvalenti]

@mumblebaj thanks I will give that a try and report back. Appreciate it.
