How can I add more time periods for MMM-compliments?
-
@dæmoneyes start the mirror with
npm start dev
and in the white developers window, select the console tab,
scroll up/down to find any errors (red text)…I can’t see all your code, but its probably a missing quote, paren or brace
-
@sdetweil Did that, found some red related to compliments and also to openweather
Here is the full console tab: https://imgur.com/a/Lrn8kVH -
@dæmoneyes compliments.js:48 syntax error
that means on line 48 of the complements.js file the compiler found an error…
-
@sdetweil Once again, I owe you my thanks sdetweil! It works now!
What should I do about the red related to the openweathermap?
-
@dæmoneyes openweathermap… I do not know… sorry…
-
@sdetweil hey no problem, it seems to be working fine, so I guess I shouldn’t worry about it.
If I may ask one more question, should I do anything about the yellow warning ‘Electron Security Warning’?
-
@dæmoneyes if your mirror was open to the internet, then I would say yes
-
@sdetweil Hmm ok, besides weather and quote of the day, I’m not really connecting to the net for anything so I guess that’s fine.
Thanks again for helping me solve this! -
@DæmonEyes you only make changes in
MagicMirror/modules/default/compliments/MMM-Compliments.js
and of corse in the
MagicMirror/config/config.js
?Can your Post your changes here in the Forum?
Here is a nice “HowTo” post a code into the Forum for better reading https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/4247/how-to-post-code-on-the-forum-for-absolute-beginnersThank you

@saschasp Actually I only had to make changes in the
MMM-compliments.js
and not theconfig.js
I just had to make changes at those 3 places that I showed in the imgur link I had posted and it works great.
sdetweil helped my find the missing comma that was causing the problem with thenpm start dev
prompt and now it works great.I now have 5 time periods and 3 compliments for each period. If I think of more compliments, I’ll probably add a 4th compliment for each period.
