@missnerdtou It’s a Microsoft Surface Pro 3

@SmartBeaker Thank you very much! This looks like a great way to fix the cable management!

@Dragonfire1983 I use the classes in order to show on the different pages

modules: [
		{
			module: 'MMM-pages',
			config: {
				modules:
					[
						// dashboard
						["title_dashboard",  ...],
						// agenda
						["title_agenda",  ...],
                                                 ...
					]
			}
		},
		//----------------- Page dashboard -----------------\\
		{
			module: 'MMM-SimpleText',
			classes: 'title_dashboard',
			position: 'top_bar',
			config: {
				text: { 'value': 'Dashboard' },
				fontSize: { 'value': 'xx-large' }
			}
		}
]

@dawookie1979 seems like the same issue as posted a week ago: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/18972/mmm-soccerlivescore-not-displayed-since-today/10

Dear @jubbles,

I think a full .config file would help here to investigate.

Hi all,

A short intro: I have created a Magic mirror like 7 years back with a friend of mine and created some modules. Great project, lots of fun, but didn’t have a good place to hang the mirror.
Now I wanted a dashboard in my kitchen and was looking for good software. After trying several other things I came up with the idea to use the Magic Mirror software as it’s perfect for this. Because it is not a mirror, I name this project Kitchen Magic² Mirror

Setup

My setup consist of a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 touch on a wall mount. With Tight VNC so I can remotely control it. The machine is always on, but I want it to turn on only when someone is in front of the camera for energy saving purposes. In Windows 10 there is no out-of-the-box feature to do this, therefore I have created the Appearance Detector that does this.

Pages

Because it is a touch screen I can add pages with buttons. In order to create them I use MMM-Pages in combination with MMM-TouchButton and MMM-Cursor to show the cursor. All the modules are switched on MMM-Pages by the classname.
I have added css in order to make it two-column in stead of three-column.

Page - dashboard

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda - shared family calendar
• MMM-Afvalwijzer - notification when the containers are retrieved, I added CleanProfs data (so I know when they are being washed)
• MMM-Quiz - quiz module for fun, which I created myself
• MMM-Sonos - which music plays
• clock
• MMM-OpenmapWeather
• MMM-HTMLSnippet - for showing a chess puzzle of Lichess
• compliments

Page - agenda

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• MMM-CalendarExt3 - shared family calendar - yeah it’s pretty empty, my girlfriend and I are both on leave because our second child was just born, so the agenda is quite empty ☺

Page - weather

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• MMM-3Day-Forecast
• MMM-Buienradar - rainfall
• MMM-UVIndex

Page - traffic

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• MMM-HTMLSnippet - for showing the Google maps route from home to work with traffic
• MMM-MyTraffic - list of traffic jams

Page - news

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• newsfeed - nu.nl feed
• MMM-wiki

Page - recipes

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• newsfeed - for the feed of Forkranger

Page - music

• MMM-SimpleText - for the title
• MMM-Sonos - which music plays

TODO

There is always work to do. Some of the things I want to do are these:

• Cable management - really need to do some cable management here
• Make the weather page nicer
• Add support for Alexa so I can start music with my voice
• Update the Appearance Detector as it doesn’t work well when it is dark (it’s to sensitive then)
• Add the possibility to push an html to page to the recipes page from my phone so I know what to cook that day
• Add face recognition, so when my girlfriend gets in the picture it shows hearts all over
• Need to do something more with the music page, not sure what yet, I am thinking of showing the lyrics of the currently playing song
