        @richland007 Yes, that’s correct about all the modules showing up as switches. I haven’t tested a maximum number of modules yet, so if you hit a limit let me know. You may have to re-run Discover a couple times if it takes longer than 20s to find all of your devices.

        I feel your pain about MirrorMirrorOnTheWall, that’s why I made this one for myself.

        @MoreLinux Glad you got it working!

        @chassain-0 I’ll update the minimum version. I run V2.6-dev with no issues and didn’t test lower versions.

          Is there any way to execute two commands?
          Example:
          “Alexa, turn calendar on”

          • “SHOW calendar & HIDE clock” in the same step OR “HIDE all & show calendar”

          Tried to figure that out but didn’t find a solution yet. Since there is “HIDE ALL” button on the webcontrol I thought that at least the second option should be possible. Or am I wrong?

          Thanks in advance :-)

            Out of curiosity, which module are you using for the show/hide?

            I should be able to add the ability to send multiple notifications pretty easily when I get a chance.

            EDIT: Done, you can now have multiple notifications fire when a “device” is turned on or off (Note: I was not able to fully test on the Mirror but it works in the browser, let me know if you have issues).

            Update your version and see the last example at the bottom of the updated README

            To update:

            cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AlexaOnOff/
            git fetch && git pull

                  @shbatm Hey there thank you again for this module … i opened this thread here
                  https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/9326/an-additional-config-js-per-say
                  I am trying to install MMM-AlexaOnOff but i have a lot of modules that i will have to write lines about on and off and than some combination on and offs (that will turn the modules for my wife on and hide mine and vice versa) so one could imagine how long that module config in config.js is going to get.

                  @bhepler had some ideas on the last post of that thread similar to the default “compliments” module that may be implemented to reference the MMM-AlexaOnOff config.js entry as a separate file for some of us with lots of modules.

                  Can you help me please on how i can modify my settings so i can achieve this.
                  in the mean time i am about done referencing all my modules on the regular way of adding this to config.js and will give that long file a try where MMM-AlexaOnOff confi part alone is some 400 lines in my case LOL :)

                  Thank you and happy new year’s
                  Denis

                    @shbatm Hey there happy weekend :)
                    I installed the module and updated the config.js file but Alexa is unable to find any new devices in my case.
                    What am i doing wrong ??
                    I did git clone to my modules folder (as i have done with all other modules) than cd to MMM-AlexaOnOff than npm install after install i added the module into the config .js but when i ask Alexa form my Echo dot to discover new devices it says no new devices were found??
                    My Rpi is connected via wifi to my network.

                    As i have said before i do have a large number of modules but i will try it with just only one as well and see whats up.

                    Please let me know what my next step should be
                    any help is greatly appreciated
                    thank you again
                    D

                      @richland007 I had the same, but after deleting all the devices in the Alexa app, all my devices were found again.
