    • RE: Weather: Current and Forecast- not showing

      @MinecraftBuilder

      I have to make 2 assumptions here.

      • The appid in your config is the example from the readme file. That won’t work. You have to acquire your own unique API key from http://www.openweathermap.org.

      • When you say notification feed I think you mean your newsfeed in the bottom_bar position.

      Anyway, both of your weather modules will work with a valid API key entered in the appid. I tested it with mine.

    • RE: CSS-Isue

      @psteimann said in CSS-Isue:

      Where and can i do this modification in the main.css?

      It’s not recommended that you edit the main.css file. However, you can edit the custom.css file at your pleasure, and gain the same results.

      With that, in your custom.css file, add the following entry and adjust the value accordingly:

      .compliments {
        margin-top: 200px;
      }

      @kurt said in pm2 doesn’t start after mm update:

      but I couldn’t get it right. So I hope you can.

      That’s a lot of pressure. :^)

      Try this at the very beginning of your config.js file, so it looks like this:

      var config = {
      	port: 8080,
              address: "0.0.0.0",
      	ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses.

      @goprojojo said in Incorrect Time Display in calendar(06:00 instead of 18:00 of 06:00PM):

      What did you exactly changed in calendar.js to show 18:00 format?

      This should fix the time format for you.

      Edit your calendar.js. Find the line that says:

      longDateFormat

      Change LT: "hh:mm" to LT: “HH:mm”

    • RE: After update to Mirror to 2.1.3 - no working Whitlist

      @Nick said in After update to Mirror to 2.1.3 - no working Whitlist:

      Yes, including my personal wiki on another Raspberry Pi, all with 2-5ms

      None of this may help, but you can use it as a checklist.

      • ifconfig on Pi reports the IP address you are trying to ping (wlan0) assuming wifi
      • Connecting Pi via ethernet, ifconfig and trying to ping then
      • Pinging another device from the Pi itself
      • The MM software updates. Clock, calendar, weather, etc?

      Logically, if the only thing you can’t do is ping or connect to the Pi, then something is wrong on the software side, whether a corruption, an edit or a failed installation of the software or dependencies during the upgrade process. The answer in that case, with the most success, is a manual installation, IMHO. You can continue to troubleshoot, which could take a long time, or you can know in less than an hour. You will not lose anything in doing this.

    • RE: How to MANUALLY install MM on your Pi. For absolute beginners.

      @axellejamous said in How to MANUALLY install MM on your Pi. For absolute beginners.:

      I probably made a mistake in my manual installation,

      No sir, you made no mistake. You download the software and run npm install in the MagicMirror directory. If, and when that fails, it is no fault of yours.

      I’m glad you solved your problem and thanks for the information. It’s good to know that in case anyone else encounters that problem with a manual installation.

    • RE: Newsfeed change Fade-in/Fade-out

      @l0cal said in Newsfeed change Fade-in/Fade-out:

      what i want to change like an news ticker form right to left (marquee)

      I was intrigued by your request. I like learning new things so I went ahead to see if I could accomplish what you were asking. It might seem like a small feat by those more adept at coding but it was a victory for me, however small.

      Note: This was done on my dev machine. I have not tested it on a Pi. As others have stated, you will most likely find that the marquee effect does not run very smoothly on a Pi. You might want to disable all module animations (at first) to see if this will run acceptably on a Pi. However, it may not, in any case.

      There are some options available to you, as well. You can have the marquee run in various directions by changing directions='left' to left, right, up or down. You can also modify the speed of the animation by changing scrollamount='5'. 1 being the slowest, 20 being sickeningly fast.

      This is how I did it. I’m sure there are other ways.

      Line 164 in the newsfeed.js file should be changed to this:
      Click on the picture. When the window opens, click on it again to enlarge.
      0_1510499211191_Capture.JPG

      Also, change the updateInteval: in your config to something like this, then adjust accordingly:

      module: "newsfeed",
      position: "bottom_bar",
      config: {
      	updateInterval: 28 * 1000,
      

      I’d like to know how it works for you so please post your results. Here is a short video of how it works for me.

      Ok, so, disable or remove the stocks module entry because we know that’s not working anyway.

      Then edit your newsfeed entry to look like this. You can edit out my stuff and/or add your BBS news in the same way

      {
      	module: 'newsfeed',
      	position: 'bottom_bar',

      Also, you can change the resolution on the Pi in "Preferences/Raspberry Pi Configuration.

      Key commands while the mirror is running:

      zoom in = Ctrl + Shift + =
      zoom out = Ctrl + -
      default size = Ctrl + 0 (that’s a zero)

    • RE: MMM-voice setup but MagicMirror wont display

      @shazglass said in MMM-voice setup but MagicMirror wont display:

      I am serously a 5 day taught myself to help my son with his project.

      No worries dude. Personally, I’m glad to see you involved with your son. That’s how this started for me. I wanted to have something in common with my 21 year old son so I could stay “cool” in his eyes. Now . . .

      I don’t use voice on my Pi mirror anymore but I do use it extensively on other boards. This is what I remember.

      • I didn’t use a 3rd party sound card
      • USB microphone plugged directly into USB port of the Pi
      • Needing to run alsamixer in a terminal window to set mic/capture device.
      • Testing mic by recording your voice (forgot command - google it)

      After that, installing MMM-voice, paying careful attention to the directions on how to install the dependencies. If at this point the module runs but displays a microphone and the word “ERROR” then I can help you. If, on the other hand, the module does not run and errors in the terminal or the dev console then something in your beginning steps is amiss
