great job man looks great! hopefully mine will come out as good. ill go ahead with the building now. also the mirror is a tiny bit bigger than the monitor. should I put something in that space? maybe some paper or something so it wont be see through.

title explains it…monitor is 3/4 and inch 1.75cm approximately, bigger than the frame… can I put the monitor against the frame with a .5 in space between the 2way and the monitor?
need real answers fast because im building the thing now that I have the software set up and I don’t want to complete the build to find out there cant be a space… please help if you have experience.

@lavolp3 thanks! got it working

@lavolp3

i have been trying my best but i cant seem to link the file.
heres what i got.
compliments.js >
odule.register(“compliments”, {

// Module config defaults.
defaults: {
	compliments: {
		anytime: [
			"Don't forget to laugh often, and smile always!"
		],
		morning: [
			"Good morning!",
			"Enjoy your day!",
			"Rise and shine, the early bird gets the worm!",
			"You are loved!",
			"Each and every day brings it's own blessings!"
		],
		afternoon: [
			"All work and no play? Must be the middle of the day!",
			"Live, Laugh, Love!",
			"Mirror, Mirror on the wall...",
			"Looking good today!"
		],
		evening: [
			"Another day is coming to a close!",
			"Dinner time!",
			"Bed time is the best time of the day!"
		]
	},
	updateInterval: 30000,
	remoteFile: "~/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/compliments/remote_compliments.json",
	fadeSpeed: 4000,
	morningStartTime: 3,
	morningEndTime: 12,
	afternoonStartTime: 12,
	afternoonEndTime: 17
},

‘’‘’‘’
the program is just ignoring the .json file and doing the regular compliments.
i have the book broken into 4 sections anytime morning afternnon and evening.

when i delete the default compliments up there ^^^^ it says undefined. even without comments in the compliments.js the remote_compliments still isnt being called.

i spend a lot of time putting 1590 lines of a book into quotations and stuff so i dont want to give up.

ok so the original size of the /modules/compliments/compliments.js is 8kb.
im trying to display portions of a book. having trouble. the file is now 204kb
everything except the book loads on the npm start command.
how can i create 4 seprate files to call? basically i want to try and break the compliments modules 4 sections of the day into 4 files i can call that way the module will boot up… the total size of the files will be maybe 40kb each which last i checked worked i think. so maybe if i lower the amount of stuff in the actual module and just call upon separate files from the module things will work out well?

how can i do this?

open up your compliments.js module and paste the github text under “anytime/morning/afternoon/evening” according to what time you would like to feel inspired.

// Module config defaults.
defaults: {
compliments: {
anytime: [
/// PASTE github text from this link https://github.com/TJSteed/MMM-Bible/blob/master/Ecclesiasticus to have a random wisdom quote from the wisdom book of the bible called Ecclesiasticus.
],

This is ecclesiasticus. better known as sirach. it is one of the wisdom books of the catholic bible.
next for the project are the following wisdom books Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, and Wisdom. i plan on doing each book listed for this module i am creating.
the only wisdom book i will not be doing is job because his book is a bit too story like and is best enjoyed in order verse by verse or you wont take much from it. ecclesiasticus is my favorite book so i did it first.

ok so i got the config.js to open and display everything except the daily bible verse module… i dont know how i can get it to display.

i went ahead and swapped out the “newsfeed” new york times link, and switched it to bible gatewhats verse a day link but it only says the time the verse was updated and something like this “galatians 16:23”
it doesnt actually display the bible quote.
so far the news feed looks like this

module: "newsfeed",
			position: "top_bar",
			config: {
				feeds: [
					{
						title: "Bible Gateway's Verse of the Day",
						url: "https://www.biblegateway.com/votd/get/?format=atom"
					}
				],
				showSourceTitle: true,
				showPublishDate: true

its not displaying anything other than the book chapter and verse of the bible…

trying to use the actual “mmm-dailybibleverse” module isnt working however magic mirror starts it just doesnt display

heres what i put in the config.js
"

modules: [
{
		module: "MMM-DailyBibleVerse",
		position: "bottom_bar",	// This can be any of the regions. Best result is in the bottom_bar as verses can take multiple lines in a day.
		config: {
            version: "NIV", // This can be changed to any version you want that is offered by Bible Gateway. For a list, go here: https://www.biblegateway.com/versions/,
	    size: "small" // default value is medium, but can be changed. 
		}
]

"

i pasted the MMM-DailyBibleVerse folder here ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/MMM-DailyBibleVerse’

im new here so i think im making a silly mistake im blind to. can anyone enlighten me?
