    • RE: Which type of glass to use ?

      Hi,
      I am almost done making my MagicMirror. I used this:

      https://www.amazon.com/12-Acrylic-See-Through-Mirror-3mm/dp/B01G4MQ5OW/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1485816004&sr=1-1&keywords=12"+x+24"+Acrylic+See-Through+Mirror

      If you have access to Amazon then this might help you. You can choose thickness and different sizes. I chose the 3mm thickness because I was afraid that the 1mm would be too flimsy and cause mirror distortion. I am quite pleased with its ability to “mirror”. I don’t know anything about applying film. Good luck.

      I’ll post a picture when my mirror is completed.

      FYI, I live in New York. I hope you don’t mind getting advice from an American :musical_score:

      Peace

      As promised, I gave you as many ^ as this page would allow. You spent a considerable amount of time and effort in helping me solve my problem and I appreciate that. I kept clicking ^ on your posts but each would only permit +1. Again, many thanks.

      Peppa,
      I don’t know how to thank you. That last edit you made did the trick. I am absolutely thrilled right now. I will take your advice and visit http://jshint.com/. I’m going to add, “Peppa made this happen!” in my compliments module.

      Peace, and best regards,

      Mykle (New York)

      P.S. If there is a rating system here, I will find it and give you highest of praise.

    • RE: Adding 3rd party modules help please

      First, let me thank you for assistance. You are most kind. Then, let me apologize that I don’t know how to post the code in that nice frame, as you did. With that, I think I added the code as you advised, yet MagicMirror reported an error in the config, again. I am trying to add the module “planetrise” as shown below. In this case, between “updatenotification” and “clock.”

                  },
                  {
      		module: "updatenotification",
      		position: "bottom_bar"
      	},
      	{
          		module: 'planetrise',
          		position: 'top_right',  // This can be any of the regions.
          		header: 'PLanet Rise',
          		config: {  // Place the latitude and longitude of your mirror
              		latitude: 45.5,
              		longitude: -122.38,
              		// A dictiory of the bodies and unicode character for the symbol
              		// This is the default and does not need to be listed.
              		// A full list of bodies can be seen on line 1359 in astronomy.js
              		// Note: Trying to find the rise time of Earth will crash the Module
              		bodies: {'Sun': '☉',
                      	'Moon': '☽',
                      	'Mercury': '☿',
                      	'Venus': '♀',
                      	'Mars': '♂',
                      	'Jupiter': '♃',
                      	'Saturn': '♄',
      	},
      	{
      		module: 'clock',
      		position: 'top_left'
      	},
                  {
      		module: 'calendar',
      		header: 'US Holidays',
      		position: 'top_left',

    • Adding 3rd party modules help please

      I clone a third party module into my /MagicMIrror/modules folder and NOT into my modules/default/ folder? Where do I add the accompanying code in the config.js file? I’ve tried at the end, just after the last default module code (newsfeed) and I’ve tried at the beginning (before ‘alerts’) and I’ve tried in the middle between various default modules. Most of the time I get the error from MagicMirror that there is an error in the config file. Once or twice MagicMirror ran but no new module appeared (Only the default modules appeared). I’ve been at this for weeks. I’m completely new to all of this and I hope someone has the patience and generosity to help an old guy. I’m amazed at how brilliant you all are. You have made it easy enough for me to get this far. So, please help me if you can. Best regards - Mykle (New York)
