I just have samba set up on my pi, so then I can access the MM folder on my windows PC. Then backup the MM folder from there.

Works well, I have restored many times. Just reinstall MM and copy the files to the new pi.

I cant seem to limit the width of my module to fit on my 3.5 in. screen. I want it to just display one module (MMM-CountDown) but the module goes off he screen. I have tried many variations of the below and cant seem to get it to work. Any ideas?

I have tried the below in my custom.css

.region.top.left  {
  max-width: 30px;
}

and

.region.top.left .MMM-CountDown .module-content {
  max-width: 30px;
}

and

.MMM-CountDown {
  max-width: 30px;
}

OK, makes sense. Thanks!!

Ok I was thinking I could figure this out (removing the days), but got so far and am stuck.
I was able to change the days to blue in the display, how do I get this into the css? I was thinking I could just change the days to black and they would not be shown. Am I on the right path to get this done? How to I get this into my css page?

I lover the MMM-EventHorizon module and am using it as a timer in my kitchen, but for that I dont need the “Days” in the timer. any way to remove this from the module? Or maybe just make it black to hide it?

I basically just use the site below and change the date and time…

http://free.timeanddate.com/countdown/i6f519yg/n64/cf12/cm0/cu4/ct0/cs0/ca0/cr0/ss0/cacFFFFFF/cpcFFFFFF/pc000/tcfff/szw576/szh443/tatTimer/tacFFFFFF/tptDone/tpcFFFFFF/mat/macFFFFFF/mpt/mpcFFFFFF/iso2019-01-24T10:00:01

@jasondreher said in sendNotification help:

this.time = payload

I added “this.time = payload”, this is using the payload correct?

OK so I change my sendNotification to

this.sendNotification('SHOW_TIMER','18:25:25');

and the MMM-EventHorizon notificationReceived to

    notificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
        if (notification === 'HIDE_TIMER') {
            this.hide(1000);
        } else if (notification === 'SHOW_TIMER') {
            this.show(1000);
            this.time = payload //I added this
            this.updateDom();  //I added this
        }

    },

Thinking the paylaod will update the countdown time but it does nothing… Not sure what I am doing worng. I have tested this quite a few different ways and searched quite a bit…

I can tell its doing something as it flickers (like it is refreshing with the updateDom) but the countdown does not reflect the new time.

I want to be able to send a value to https://github.com/mykle1/MMM-EventHorizon to change the time used in a count down timer. Right now I can make the module hide with…

this.sendNotification('HIDE_TIMER');

but I cant seem to do much more, how do I change my sendNotification to include a payload to change the date and time in MMM-EventHorizon. I will have to change the notificationReceived in MMM-EventHorizon to I assume…

All works great!! Love the module! Thanks

Awesome!!! Just want I want after WeatherUndergrown stops its free api.

I have it working but it takes up my entire screen even thought its set to top_right. And I cant get it to take any config changes, like table vs tiled.

{
  module: "MMM-DarkSkyForecast",
  header: "Weather",
  position: "top_right",
  classes: "default everyone",
  disabled: false,
  config: {
    apikey: "bbfdeba8c52c0581c559b731f96f97b5",
    latitude: "45.067890",
    longitude: "-93.079030",      
    iconset: "4c",
    concise: false,
    forecastLayout: "table"
  }
},

Any idea why this would happen?
