@strawberry-3-141 Thank you for updating this!

@cowboysdude Possibly restarting MM might make the message go away as well? Does that module check to see if you ever updated while the mirror is running and turns itself off automatically or just warn of a new update?

@pastormingle Well, instead, I’d expect at least newsfeed, calendar, and helloworld (since that isn’t on the readme) to work as those are either default modules or one you likely added. But that lis:

                    ['helloworld','calendar'],
                    ['weatherforecast', 'MMM-Trello', 'planetrise', 'newsfeed'],
                    ['MMM-fitbit']

Only works with the names of the modules you have, so if you don’t have MMM-fitbit installed, calling it is pointless and nothing would display.

@pastormingle Do you have MMM-Fitbit, etc as modules on your mirror?

@exndfan I can confirm, had an article from NYT from April 2020 show up recently on mine.

@droidus There’s a couple of modules that will move other modules’ positions slightly to try and prevent burn-in.

@killk How did you install MagicMirror on a Windows device? By default and by most of the documentation, this is an application to run on a Linux device, most commonly on a Raspberry Pi.

Instead, I have a window labeled Electron running with nothing displayed. I did a git pull && npm install to do the update and had to remove both instances of package-lock.json (in the root MM folder and in the vendor subfolder) to do the update and I don’t remember modifying those. Is there some additional steps I need to do to make Electron behave?

@bkeyport actually, that might be @pkup10 's problem: he didn’t put a position item in his config. MM won’t display it without knowing where to display it.

@mdlefevere Can you do like has been done for others who want to duplicate a module and have 2 copies of the module folder, one named slightly differently than the other (MMM-Bring2 for example) with that folder having the MMM-Bring.js renamed to also be that new name and the “module register” entry also updated to the new one. Then you’d have the config for it with that new name and the other list name as well as the original?

Does that make sense?

@sifuhall So, other modules aren’t showing either?

Hello everybody! Does anybody know of any sort of module that will do a countdown timer that I’m hoping to use for being on-call. It’d show how long until I go on-call, then flip to how long until I’m not on-call and then back to how long until on-call again. Preferably calendar events but also could work with some sort of simple file import. If it helps, its a fairly regular schedule of on-call for one week out of 11 weeks in the rotation too.

@sifuhall You won’t get anything until the UK football team has a game, which won’t be for a few weeks. Until then, this module displays nothing.

@chanster No one knows of one?

@chanster I’m glad that it was! Hopefully it stays accurate for you too.

@chanster Do you mind me asking where you’re located? Using weather.gov as a weather provider with Celsius isn’t a standard thing (and much as I can imagine that the API handles C properly, it won’t shock me if it doesn’t).

@maricus85 I’m not familiar with this module at all but on that prompt from Google that you’re showing, there’s an advanced link. If you click on that, what options are you given?

@wenike Apparently, deleting that autostart file (or in my case, renaming it) caused it to be recreated and get the normal desktop back.

So, unclutter worked for me to hide the cursor but now I don’t have the normal RaspPi desktop and instead I’m in some Openbox thing. After some panic, I was able to figure out that I needed to right-click to bring up the menus (I use a Chromebook to VNC on and have a bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo that I use rarely if the Chromebook doesn’t work and the Chromebook has long-press to be right-click, which doesn’t translate very well outside of it). I’ve killed that autostart command and uninstalled unclutter (sudo apt-get --purge remove uncluter). How do I get it to stop going into Openbox and go back to using the desktop that I’m used to?

@cheapdad @Ray It looks like you’ve updated the default values in MMM-OpenWeatherForecast.js rather than putting them into the config section of your config.js? Its generally recommended not doing that because that makes it harder to update the module in the future (you have to save your copy of the file elsewhere, update the module and put your changes back and hope you didn’t break anything by putting your changes back).

In this case, being on the free tier with openweathermap shouldn’t cause issues, as they limit that to 60 calls/minute or 1,000,000 calls/month and you’re only going to hit around 44,640. Unless you’re using multiple modules hitting openweathermap, at which point you could be hitting issues.

Can you try deleting that MMM-OpenWeatherForecast.js file (or at least rename it to not be that name) and do a git pull in that folder, which should pull it down again. Put your changes in the config.js instead and see if that fixes your issues?
