For those googling this problem, consider whether you added the module to your config file but didn’t stop and restart the software. Many config changes can take effect just by saving the config file and reloading the browser window, but adding and removing modules…not so much :-)

Epic! I’ll start playing with this. During my tests I will experiment with the “-s” and “-n” command line flags for adjusting fortune length and propose/submit updates. Thank you for putting this together!

Since this is the only Windy thread, I’ll add my experience for search: I wasn’t able to get v2 to display anything. In v1 I found a way to edit the CSS and make the map less in-your-face, so it coexists with other modules:

We already have the awesome MMM-Fortune module. Are you aware there’s a “fortune” command in unix/linux? You can install it in your pi like so:

sudo apt install fortune

It was intended to present a little epigram every time you log in to a terminal, but it can also be invoked at the command line.

I’d be inclined to replace the “Compliments” module with a module that pulls a short unix fortune using this command, updating on a configurable interval.

Any takers? :-)
