Hi,

I followed all the instructions to install the Google Photos module. I got the json files and I think I did everything correctly. When I reboot my MM, I just get the word “Loading…” on the screen, but nothing else happens.

When I run MM via npm, I see this in the text:

[09.03.2024 16:15.43.513] [INFO] Checking git for module: MMM-GooglePhotos [09.03.2024 16:15.43.585] [ERROR] unable to load cache [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/kelemvor/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos/cache/photoListCache.json'] { errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT', syscall: 'open', path: '/home/kelemvor/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotos/cache/photoListCache.json' } [09.03.2024 16:15.43.585] [INFO] Initialization complete!

Then a bit further down I see this:

Anyone know where I can start looking to figure out what all this means?

Thanks.

@Kelemvor like always
open a cmd.exe session
change directory to the
cd MagicMirror\modules
folder
then
git clone the github url for the module
then cd module name
and if there is a package.json file do
npm install

if there are module specific commands then you would follow instructions from that folder too

@Kelemvor
To make things simpler, Let’s clear the condition;

What is your expectation? Are there missing events which have to be shown but not? For example, there had to be 3 events on today but only 2 events shown? on which day it happens? everyday? or some specific day? on which calendar does it happen? randomly? or some specific calendar? Or any suspicious symptoms or evidence of those missed events? Are you suspecting hidden(not missing) events or days at the end(bottom) of the module’s view? You expect 10 days but only 7 days are shown…?

@sdetweil That being said, you can.

.region.left { min-width: 640px; max-width: 640px; }

It’s dirty, but it does work. Would be really bad if it wasn’t for the fact that we’re working in a system that has a known single output for the most part.

@Kelemvor
1.4.2 is the latest version.

@schrecki css is a tricky beast, some settings are inherited by smaller components , some not.

there is no single setting that works for all

i don’t know the exact answer for any module
but you can find it by using the developer window elements tab

see the second link in my signature below

one key thing to know is the css stuff you need to add to custom.css

the stuff before the { is the selector clause
it ‘selects’ the elements the stuff inside the {} will be applied to

. (dot) means classname # means id value no prefix means an html tag name div, p, table...

i use this cheatsheet site
https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.php

they have changed it to group the types, so you have to look thru the types

@sdetweil Thanks for the info. It doesn’t seem to be affecting anything so I’ll just leave it and see how the next version works.

Thanks.

@Kelemvor then use my script to install,
listed as 1st in the alternative install methods.

Hi,

Similar to those modules that show interesting things or facts about today, I thought it’d be neat to show a list of people who were born on this day. Doing a Google search for “Born on this day” finds tons of websites with the info. Some of them have people in random order with lots of people you’ve never heard of. I did find this one that seems to have them ordered by popularity which is nice.
https://www.thefamouspeople.com/famous-people-born-today.php

I have no idea how it works to get that info into a MM.

Anyway, there ya go.

@Kelemvor there are iframe modules too that can embed a web site in a window

@BKeyport Thanks. I’m using the “mywordoftheday” module. I put in a max-width 400px and it seemed to do the trick.
Thanks.

@MMRIZE thanks for the info. I don’t even know how modules get updated or how I know when a module needs to be updated. Do I need to subscribe to the GitHub page or can I turn on auto updates or anything like that?

Oh, I found a note on the page about removing the Position flag so I’ll try that. I’ll start a new thread for my questions about the Ext3Agenda module.
Thanks.

@artemisjack I got it to work by creating an album for the module to use and specifying it in the config. It does take a few min to search and load the photos.

config: {
albums: [ “MagicMirror” ],

looked back in my archives, and found it:

// Force Absolute to Absolute all the time, michmich *really* hates solid dates, apparently. timeformat: "absolute", getRelative: 0, urgency: 0,

Hi,

In the Weather module, the top line is Wind icon, Wind speed, Wind Direction, and then the Sunrise icon and the Sunrise time. I don’t want to see any of those things. I just want to see the Current Temp line and the Feels Like.

If I turn on onlyTemp, I lose the top line, but I also lose the Feels Like, which I’d like to keep.

There are some individual flags I can set. If I set ShowSun and Show WindDirection to False, I lose most of what I want, but I still have the wind speed and a wind icon showing. I don’t see any config options to turn off the Windspeed and wind icon completely. Does this option exist?

Thanks.

@sdetweil Nice. Thanks.

@Kelemvor good find!!

@Kelemvor git is a terminal command not a nodejs command.

just open a cmd.exe window

@kelemvor

I don’t think you want the Lite version. Raspbian Desktop, yes.
