RE: Use MMM-AlexaControl to switch pages on MMM-Pages
@linx don’t know, but your voice would be
alexa, turn on page 3
because alexaControl creates wall switches
I think you only have to configure how MANY pages u need
I ‘think’ alexa, turn off page 3 goes back to page 1
I added a custom notification to hide all the modules
alexa, turn off the office mirror
which notifies my MMM-SleepWake to do the hiding

RE: Github usage and module continuations
@Tigershroffr interesting but you missed one critical point.
The vast majority of ‘developers’ did this for themselves as their first and only module. With no intention of keeping it up. They shared it to be nice to othersAnd have now moved on to other projects
@kristjanesperanto has worked w many module owners to become a maintainer.

RE: Module not found [Solved]
@trixrforchris yes, or follow this pinned topic , and look a little higher in the output for the library name

which will update package.json , the link also shows how to CREATE the package.json for those modules that didn’t supply one

RE: Multiple instances
@elmago sure, I do this on my pi4 on different displays sometimes.
install one, copy the mm folder tree to another name, MagicMirror2 and change the port and modules used…

RE: electron security warning issue

RE: How do you get modules to communicate with each other?
@adrien00 your voice reco module uses a JavaScript function
this.sendNotification(notification_string, optional_data)in this case u need to send a notification that the MMM-Pages module understands.
the module documents the notifications it understands

RE: [HowTo] Update MM/Modules safely.
@MMRIZE thanks. I agree. if it’s working, don’t change anything.
this is why my upgrade script is designed as a two pass approach.
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scriptsone to test and discover any issues before making any changes
one to actually DO the upgradehaving a log of both operations goes a long way to resolving any issues
the upgrade also checks for and re-initializes any modules we know have problems w electron or nodejs changes.
my backup and restore scripts give you ability to make regular backups and save them incrementally to GitHub, and restore from there as well . a nice to have tool if you have to rebuild your mm.
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restorebackup, however you do it, is a critical step for insuring success.

RE: Auto-start not working on Pi Zero W
@sdetweil I test my script on the pi0w (and w2) and have to make a special setup on the pi0w as there is no Electron version for armv6l now…
so I download a script to use to launch MM as server mode and then launch chromium over that as the UI component
looks and acts the same
pi0w needs more memory, so u have to increase the swap space
as the documented platform is FULL desktop, chromium-browser is installed and usable
