Sam, I love this! It is exactly what I was looking for and very useful. Thanks so much for making it!

Hi,

I would like the compliments text of the default compliments module to be in blue instead of white. I think this can be done with custom css but I struggled with the instructions in the pinned post. If someone would please give me a shortcut of how to do it, I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks

That worked great! Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.

I happen to have an NYT subscription. My question is: Is the default newsfeed module equipped for me to configure it with my NYT credentials and login in and display full article text?

@sdetweil I think it is the default, which I believe is NY Times.

In the recent past, when I sent the show article notification to my mirror, it would display the entire text of the article corresponding to the current headline in the newsfeed module. Now, when I do that, it displays a captcha and won’t let me see the full text of the article. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks!

nomachine is a great and free alternative to VNC. I have been using it to mirror my smart mirror to my laptop’s display and it works very well.

@sdetweil Any pointers on how I can add that functionality on my own? Thanks!

What I mean by this is that when I send the notification ARTICLE_MORE_DETAILS, it shows the article text but only about a page of it before it asks for a subscription/login. I’m wondering if there is a way to provide my login/pw to the default newsfeed module and have it show the ENTIRE text of the article.

I have a NY Times subscription, and I was wondering if there was a way for the default newsfeed module to display the entire article text using my subscription.

Thanks so much for your help.

Thank you!

I am trying to get a feature to work that depends on the clock module broadcasting a notification upon start up. I put a call to this.sendNotification() in the start() function in clock.js, but it doesn’t appear like it is being executed. Is there something subtle about the timing of modules being loaded so that the other modules is listening when the clock sends this notification?

Also, I know there was a post somewhere about logging. This is ten times harder than it should be because most/all of my log messages don’t seem to show up when I run: npm start dev.

Thanks so much for your help.

I want to use the MMM-gestures module which requires that you connect a grove gesture sensor to the GPIO of the raspberry pi that is running your magic mirror. That raspberry pi is attached to a frame that is mounted to my bathroom wall and is totally not easily accessible. So instead I would like to connect the grove gesture sensor to the gpio of a second raspberry pi that will talk over the WiFi network to the pi that runs my mirror. What is the best way to make this pi to magic
Mirror connection happen?

Thanks so much for your help.
