I’m just looking for any example modules out in MM land that pull in and present data from weather sensors inside a MM module. Just want to look at them for now.
Have multiple weather oriented sensors such as wind speed, wind direction and total rainfall that have been sitting idle and want to see how that works

RE: MMM-jast
@BKeyport A little side note but with the proliferation of bigger screens people are using to display MM’s, that block of font sizes in main.css is worth lifting the whole block and adjusting all your fonts in one place rather than tweaking each modules font individually.
I found that by accident but once screen size crosses a certain size threshold you don’t need to scale up the font anymore. Just put more modules on application.
For example, Say your main living area you have a 60 inch screen and you set an appropriate font size for that, if you step up to a72 inch screen you don’t need to ratchet up the font size. My accidental discovery which was just playing around, a 4 inch tall font on your 60 inch TV doesn’t need to step up to a 6 inch font on a 72 inch. -
RE: Pin placements -
@Kastore It depends on the device but the color of the wires is not random. Typically red = + but could either be 3.3V or 5V. Black will be - or grd. I can’t ever remember all of the pins but if you do an image search on GPIO Pinout you will get a ton of pictures of how all the pins are laid out.
Yellow can be a bit more arbitrary but if you don’t have the device literature you can do a search on the devices name and/or number -
RE: MMM-DHT-Sensor stopped working
@Jonae How many wires on sensor? 3 or 4? There are some DHT sensors with 4, some with 3.
If it is 4, and/or you know it is I2C ,try running ```sudo i2cdetect -y 1’‘’ .
Should spit you out an address 38.If not I have a 3 wire sensor I can hook up and run through setup. My 3 wire sensor and DHT supposed to be about twins.

RE: amber alert module
@dave462 You need a Raspberry PI, micro SD card to install Pi OS, then you install MM software. You need a monitor. WiFi Mouse and Keyboard so you can plug fob into Pi, interact with the Magic Mirror software.
Once that is up and running then you can address an Amber Alert module. -
RE: amber alert module
@BKeyport Just to reiterate what @BKeyport said, the Mirror part of Magic Mirror doesn’t do justice to the multitude of projects and designs people come up with.
You want to put your calendar/schedule where you can see it and be reminded of things you need to do, Magic Mirror.
Want a visual display of the weather where you live, Magic Mirror.
Some of the things folks come up with are really exceptional.
BUT… there is more to it than slapping a bunch of blocks (modules) together and done.
Some of these MM’s border on digital art they are so well done.
There is ample help but no one is going to build it for you. -
RE: MM as Desktop background (for MacOS / Linux)
@MMRIZE I think he sees icons in front of the weather module, doesn’t realize MM is the desktop

RE: Default weather module question
@boblewis I use weather.gov and look is different.

RE: Kitchen Dashboard
@boehmch Nice.
Is the assembly on back side so you can pull it forward to gain access to hardware?
Ahh, it hides the microwave. That is slick. -
RE: Help with framing!
@whimsicality I would suggest someone that does cabinetry and I would never have thought of it but I think a good frame shop would also be a good option. People frame flags, and all types of heirlooms and curio’s so they probably can come up with something of the appropriate depth.
