I’ve looked a very little bit at Font-Awesome and was wondering if there a FREE colored icon swaps for ones that are in general use for the most part. It looked like colored icons were premium.

RE: Generic Config.js & Module Question
@sdetweil @BKeyport just trigggered a question on inheritance. On several occasions when I have Developer Tool up to look at something , I’ll see message text that is roughly “X is inherited from body” or from main. Been a while since I was really poking around in developer tool mode. Think above was in context of CSS. So in event you want to change X, how do you tackle without it having global impact?

Generic Config.js & Module Question
If you go with the default settings that are coded in to each module, you can delete that from the config.js module script associated with each module?
For example, if
color: true,is the default and you are going to stick withtruethen you can delete that line in config.js because it is codedtruein the file you installed in MagicMirror/modules? -
RE: Weather.gov forecast status in Weather module
@sdetweil Just wanted to pass on that have two iterations of the default weather module running. One for “current” and one for forecast using weathergov as my data source. Appears I can do away with weatherEndpoint on both with no ill effects.
There is a NWS API Page that runs through an example. Follow example using the appropriate gps coordinates for your location. In my screen capture you see
/gridpoints/CAE/70,67/forecast/hourlywhich relates to my local NWS radar at CAE which is local airport. I do not think this will work for people trying to get finer resolution via someone’s weather station who is uploading their data to a 3rd party provider.I have seen the CURRENT forecast drop out infrequently but it has always come back on its own.
Daily forecast.

RE: MMM-JaST Ticker Question
@jalibu I split the difference. Most companies have something along the lines of Incorporated or Corporation hung of backside of their name, and or the corporate name is not what a company is referred to in conversation. For example BA, or as its letterhead says, The Boeing Company. Whether it is financial news or straight news, no one says “The Boeing Company”, people just refer to BA as Boeing.
So I added the name back but edited each name back to what each company is called in conversation. -
Weather.gov forecast status in Weather module
Just wondering what the status of the default Weather module is in regards to FORECAST when using provider weather.gov
I’m using it twice, once for current and once for forecast.
A while back I messed with this module and struggled with forecast but today forecast doing its thing, admittedly with a shot in the dark tweak I used off of the National Weather Service website where they talk about the API. -
RE: Clearing Custom CSS warnings from editor,
@sdetweil Thanks. MM I am making now doesn’t need any person specific calendar.
So you are pulling that link you can get from Google calendar and plugging it in where the US Holidays ical link is in the default module setting? -
RE: Clearing Custom CSS warnings from editor,
@sdetweil Is there any type of calendar module to fill that niche. Was about the most convoluted way imaginable to essentially get my Samsung phone calendar to post items on to my MM.
Samsung Calendar app---->Google Calendar---->CalExt2—>Visual on MM -
RE: MMM-JaST Depot
@jalibu It’s not a big deal. Once I Googled it and backed out references to Home Depot in my search I found some references that I figured it loosely meant balance as in bank balance or share balance. I follow US stock markets to a certain degree and had never heard the term. One of the thousands of obscure bits of trivia salted away in my brain.

MMM-JaST Ticker Question
@Jalibu I installed MMM-Jast yesterday and it in general is working but I have a question about the ticker stocks. Under the Stock object settings it says name and quantity are optional, which I also read as the ticker symbol is mandatory. Since all I wanted was the symbols, I just deleted name and quantity so each stock in list looked like the
{symbol: "xyz"}. Rather than getting the symbol, I get JUST the name + associated data. Not the end of the world but some of the names are quite long so you only get two or three stocks showing. With just the ticker showing, a lot more stocks are visible at once which helps with getting a sense of the overall market.
I did deviate from that format for the DJIA & NASDAQ where I have name and symbol. Is there a way to get module to output just the symbol?
