Ciao ragazzi, mi sto avvicinando anche io a questo mondo, ma per mero divertimento, poichè ho una infima conoscenza di programmazione, però era un po’ che volevo creare questo Specchio e ne ho approfittato data la situazione corrente.
Spero di apprendere un sacco da tutti voi (soprattutto perchè sto avendo problemi su problemi).
un saluto!

@smackenzie5

Config.js doesn’t really do anything to the layout, it is the index.html and main.css that defines the different positions that you can use.

Hi guys!
It seems like I am blowing the dust off this old topics!
By the way… I am trying to change the postions of some modules and I am having the same issue as @smackenzie5 , first it loads the module where i want to place it, but at the end of the loading it increases the size of the top_bar and place it as default.

this is what I’ve put in the custom.css

.MMM-network-signal{
position: absolute;
transform.scale(0,35);
left: 1800px;
top: 0px;
}

Is it because it overlaps with the Weather module?

(I didn’t think it would have mattered)…

linux is case sensitive… windows is not

look in the console where u start ed MagicMirror

if pm2, the use the pm2 logs --lines=100 command to view the logs…

the error more than likely is a bad url, ???

I don’t know why, when I closed and Opened again Magic Mirror, it wasn’t working at all; so I started with the backup of the config file and now it is working everything, ticker included. I think that I just needed to remove the default feed (especially the url - I was asking him to load the same feed on both modules -).
Now I only have an issue with the stuttering ticker (but I’ve read something about it so I will try solving it by looking at those posts).

Thanks again sdetweil, especially for your patience!

@Giarry88 :8080/modules/MMM-NewsFeedTicker//MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js:1 Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

says file not there

you can get rid of this one by creating an empty custom.css (my installation script does this)

:1 Refused to apply style from ‘http://localhost:8080/css/custom.css’ because its MIME type (‘text/html’) is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled

touch ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css

so…
I created the custom.css (but I’ve added the command for removing the borders, because I had it in the main.css - yes…i know…my bad :grimacing_face: - also it seems I can’t remove the spacing at the top, but this is a ittle bit OT) now as you said it previously that error disappeared.

Now I have only

Load script: modules/MMM-NewsFeedTicker//MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js
GET http://localhost:8080/modules/MMM-NewsFeedTicker//MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
Error on loading script: modules/MMM-NewsFeedTicker//MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js

But this morning I’ve installed an other module (MMM-networrk-signal) in the same way and it is working properly

Load script: modules/MMM-network-signal//MMM-network-signal.js
Module registered: MMM-network-signal

I am confused…

EDIT

My mistake was that I didn’t put capital letters in the name of the folder (I didn’t think it would have mattered)…
Now I can see the red bar with “Loading” and in the console it keeps showing :

MMM-NewsFeedTicker - unknown notification, ignoring: CLOCK_SECOND
MMM-NewsFeedTicker - received notification: CLOCK_SECOND

@sdetweil said in MMM-NewsFeedTicker:

@Giarry88 sounds like u didn’t install the module in the right place

I’ve nstalled it in the Modules folders (outside of the Default folder, correct?)

@sdetweil said in MMM-NewsFeedTicker:

@Giarry88 open the developers window ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard, and select the console tab and scroll up to see any errors.

yes,

What does “check.config” do?

It checks the config.js file

Ok, i’ve checked and corrected it with geanie and now the syntax is correct but it still doesn’t show it on mm

@sdetweil said in MMM-NewsFeedTicker:

@Giarry88 from the MagicMirror folder do

npm run check:config

Thanks sdetweil.

the terminal says:

pi@raspberrypi:~/magicmirror $ npm run check:config

What does “check.config” do?

Hi guys! I know that this topic is quite old, but I am trying to add this module to my magic mirror unsuccesfully.
I added in the “config.js” file the module but it doesn’t show up. Any ideas on what i’ve done wrong?
