    • RE: MMM-CalendarExt2 calendar event filter and notifications no longer working

      @Hepkat yes. We found and fixed this bug just yesterday.
      You will need to install the develop branch to get it

    • RE: Scaling issues with MM 2.35 using NPM Run Start:x11

      @DDE12 we changed the default for npm start to be Wayland as we documented in the release notes

      That is why you have to use npm run start:x11

      We also moved user files to the config folder
      And moved the default modules to their own folder away from the modules folder

      As I posted about a month ago.

      How did you upgrade? git pull or my scripted upgrade?

    • RE: Failed to Connect to Wayland Display

      @magicmikael if you do env

      Do you see wayland_display in the list?

      The script sets WAYLAND_DISPLAY if not already set

      Here is the script , make sure to make it executable
      chmod +x mm.sh

      #!/bin/bash
      cd ~/MagicMirror
      
      if [ $(ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -i -e xway -e labwc | wc -l) -ne 0 ]; then 
         # if WAYLAND_DISPLAYis set, use it, else set to -0
         export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=${WAYLAND_DISPLAY:=wayland-0}
         npm run start:wayland
      else
         DISPLAY=:0 npm run start:x11
      fi

    • RE: Failed to Connect to Wayland Display

      @magicmikael as we said in the readme notes on the release

      We changed
      npm start/node —run start

      To launch for Wayland compositor

      If you are still on x11
      You need to use

      npm run start:x11
      Or
      node —run start:x11

    • RE: MMM-CalendarExt3 Resize module

      @megagprime you will have to use position absolute and width
      You can use the developers window elements tab to try it out.

      See the second link in my sig below for an example on how to use the elements tab

      @megagprime if you put the module in bottom bar it will resize.

      It fits in the area you place it

      @SdR awesome. Sorry it took so long. Got sidetracked by the MagicMirror install problem, which wasn’t the cause

    • RE: OpenWeather loaded but info is empty since update

      @SdR Ok, in 2.35 we rewrote the data collection portion of the weather module
      it does NOT support the old version 2.5 openweather api anymore.

      so, to use the openweather provider, you must get a new 3.0 apikey from openweather which requires a credit card, and you get (today) 1000 free api calls. (so net free)

      from a year ago, in the troubleshooting section

      @SdR >Sun Apr 5 10:08:29 CEST 2026

      there was a bug in the upgrade I fixed at 21:00 US Central time

      can you edit ~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh

      and change the

      npm start 
      

      to

      npm run start:x11
      

      then you can
      pm2 restart MagicMirror

    • RE: Default weather module not displaying forecast

      @DarrenO-0 I understand. You might be able to switch to a different provider on the weather module, depending on where you are. Not all providers are world wide

    • RE: Failed to Connect to Wayland Display

      @Scruffy I strongly recommend using some backup/restore mechanism,
      please see my backup/restore scripts for one approach.

      they also support versioning, so you can tell one set of changes from another and can go back or forward…
      and move between systems. too…

      https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore.git

      and I also support the install/upgrade scripts, mentioned in the MM doc, Alternative install section
