    • RE: MMM-NOAA - Another Weather Module

      Now that I have scrapped my Pi Zero W and have done a fresh install of “Buster” and MM on my Pi 3 B Plus everything is playing together nicely!

    • RE: Can someone do the coding for me? $$

      Start by posting your currently installed modules.
      Like this

      1. MMM-Calendar
        etc.

      The copy your config.js entries (MagicMirror/config) in thier entirety using the code option </> above.

      Then post your custom.css file (MagicMirror/css) using the code option </>

      This will give the coders and people willing to assist a headstart .

      This project seems perfect for some of the pro’s on this forum.

    • RE: Trying to modify dimensions of module MMM-RAIN-RADAR

      There is a subdirectory named css below the main MagicMirror directory. Within that subdirectory one should find a file named custom.css. Open this file with the built in text editor by right clicking upon the file and choosing Text Editor.

      Then copy the code above by highlighting it and then right clicking and choosing copy or highlighting it and pressing CTRL-C .
      Then create a line within the custom.css by clicking below the body statements and then Right Click and Choose Paste or press CTRL-V

      Make sure that this code is NOT within the brackets that specify body, but instead below those entries.

    • RE: Configured PIR sensor but won't trigger

      I think this post may be helpful. https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6987/mmm-pir-sensor-problems/10

      It appears that you have wired correctly. Although I would use the Red wire on the VCC for power and the black wire to denote ground and the brown wire as the output wire. Thats typically the way wiring is denoted.

      I believe that pin 22 is used for the output so double check that. There is also a delay setting in the config.js that the previous thread speaks of that may impact your setup.
      Give it a read.

    • RE: MMM-DumpsterDay

      I think I may install this module as it sounds handy. Here we can only put out our Landscape cans every 2 weeks as they will not pick them up every week. I get confused sometimes as to which week it is “Landscape Week” or “Non-Landscape Week”. Would it be possible to alter the code to display a different style pulsing Icon for Landscape cans. Actually 2 Trash cans would be nice. One White for the regular trash can and one Green -signifying the color of the landscape can. If this is possible why not add an option to have all three colors represented.
      White = Standard trash Can
      Green=Landscape
      Blue=Recycle

      Oh, you misspelled Dumpster in the title of the post and spelled Dupster instead.

      @DeanoNoire Ahh , thats what is causing the issue.
      US Format is Month:Day:Year and not

    • RE: MMM-DumpsterDay

      I have been working on scaling the use of this great module. I thought about what other reoccurring things that I might need notification of. It came to mind that my front loading Washing Machine indicates that I need to clean the pump screen every 30 days! I also like to do a “tub clean” at about the same interval.
      The washer has a setting that is named “tub clean” where one adds a bit of bleach or other detergent made for cleaning the inside of the stainless tub to make sure that there is not any bacteria and gunk that builds up.

      In that vein I created a custom icon that can be used for notification. I wanted to share it with the community in case anyone else wanted to be notified as well.

      Since I dont use the Recycle Can I just substituted this icon for the Recycle Can and set the reoccurring notification to be every 30 days!! Click the link and then Right Click - Save Image As

    • RE: Halloween mirror ghouls anyone?

      @sdetweil said in Halloween mirror ghouls anyone?:

      @BD0G don’t modify the css file

      the system design is that css/custom.css will allow you to override any setting set by a module or the main.css file

      so you put those entries in custom.css

      all this no editing means the author can release updates and nothing u did is impacted

      Gotcha!

    • RE: Halloween mirror ghouls anyone?

      i am going to just modify the included MMM-EasyBack.css file to see if I can shrink it. Yeah that works.

      
      
      
      .MMM-EasyBack .photo {
        width: 100%;               /* size the picture */
      }
      
      .MMM-EasyBack #video {
        width: 50%;
        height: 50%;
      }
      
      .MMM-EasyBack .iframe {
        margin-top: 50px;
              margin-bottom: 0px;
              margin-left: 50px;
              margin-right: 0px;
      }

    • RE: Halloween mirror ghouls anyone?

      @sdetweil Thanks Sam.

      I went into the MMM-EasyBack.js file and altered it to reflect the video HalloweenMM.mp4 rather than within the config.js file. I also removedt the hard coded Youtube ID that was in the MMM-EasyBack.js file.

      Now it plays the Halloween file , but I cannot control the sizing of the video and it takes up just about the entire screen.

      
      Module.register("MMM-EasyBack", {
      
          defaults: {
              bgName: "",         // .jpg, .gif, .png, Full screen animated gifs too!
              videoName: "HalloweenMM.mp4",     // your local picture files go in "images" folder of MMM-EasyBack
              youTubeID: "",      // YouTube ID from the YouTube url
              height: "800px",   // your display's resolution in pixels. Enter in config.js
              width: "600px",    // your display's resolution in pixels. Enter in config.js
              animationSpeed: "0",
              updateInterval: 60 * 60 * 1000,
          },

    • RE: Halloween mirror ghouls anyone?

      @Mykle1
      This is so weird!
      I installed MMM-EasyBack as per the instructions.
      Copied a small Halloween Video in the MagicMirror/Modules/MMM-EasyBack/Videos folder. The file is named HalloweenMM.mp4. Its 15 MB. So pretty small.

      Here are my config.js entries for the module.

      {
          module: 'MMM-EasyBack',
          position: 'middle_center',
          config: {
             // bgName: "Example.jpg",   // "Example.jpg", the file name of your background image (case sensitive)
              videoName: "HalloweenMM.mp4",       // "baboon.mp4",         // file name of your local video
              height: "1920px",    // your display's resolution in pixels. Enter in config.js
              width: "1080px",     // your display's resolution in pixels. Enter in config.js
          }
      },
      
      

      I completely removed the section about Youtube ID , etc . When I launch the MM interface it contunually comes up with the YouTube Video by David Snow found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=So3vH9FY2H4

      There is no reference that I can find to that video at all.

      The YouTube ID that is referenced by this video is the same one that was in the original configuration file.

    • RE: MMM-Lunartic

      @sdetweil Got it.
      I did git stash and it indicated I needed to set my global identity. Did that. Then git stash succeeded. Then did a git pull and it indicated I needed to remove or move package.json. I moved it . Then did git pull which worked.

      Then git checkout MMM-Lunartic.js
      and git checkout package.json

      Stopped and restarted PM2 and it displays properly and the notification bar above no longer includes that as a module that needs to be upgraded

      @sdetweil OK. Perfect. Been out of the game for a while so I might have known that but forgotten.

      I ran into a commit changes or stash message.

      pi@MagicMirror:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Lunartic $ git pull
      Updating c977e14…00655ab

      error: The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge:
      package.json

      Aborting

      Just sudo git pull ? Then since it mentions the package.json do an npm install?
