Look at mykles signature. There is “how to add modules” which should help you

I don’t really know what makes you angry about it?
MichMich did not invent smart mirrors. He liked the idea and built his own software. As others said, this forum is about the MagicMirror and DIY (do it yourself). I’m sure there are lots of people who don’t want to build it on their own but purchase a full working solution, and that’s fine.
Verse Smartmirror is not a fraud, they did not steal intellectual properties. And to be honest, their presentation looks very nice.

Paste your entire code into http://jshint.com

There seem to be some missing brackets and commas

After running git clone https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor.git in ~/MagicMirror/modules, did you run

cd MMM-PIR-Sensor
npm install

? The npm install in this directory should have installed onoff as a dependency.

Your cloned MagicMirror folder resides in /root, but it should be /home/pi

User pi does not have rights to do much in root folder.

You are logged in as pi, right?

Try this please

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install
npm start

@MagicMirrorAid
Why don’t you place it in top_left then? The same position your clock is in?

cd ~/MagicMirror
git pull
npm install

Alternatively you can remove this part from your config.js, but then you won’t get any notification about pending updates for MagicMirror or any of the modules

{
	module: "updatenotification",
	position: "top_bar"
},

You missed 2 or 3 commas in newsfeed module. The comma Charley spotted, and 2 commas after each newsfeed { }

This is passing jshint without any error.

Yes, I have the same problem. You cannot access the menu by using the button and you cannot swipe from right to left to open the menu as well. I try to raise this with the admins

@justjim1220 said in how to remove a forked repo...:

@mykle1

If I do this with a forked repo, it won’t delete the original repo, right? just the forked one from my repos???

Yes, right. I had the same worries in the beginning, but you don’t even have rights to delete someone elses repository.

I took the same approach as @D90
My background is plain black, almost all elements were removed from taskbar, all icons from desktop removed and I think I even changed colors of taskbar.
In addition I followed a tutorial to remove most boot up text and display the MagicMirror splash screen instead. Still not “ideal”

I know there are some people around running an alternative Window manager, but I did not find time to play around with that.

According to another similar thread please set this instead:

dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d (with an additional f )

@matimilko

Fantastic! Now if you would mark the post that solved your issue. :-)

I did that on behalf of @matimilko

Sorry, late to the party :)

@richard238 said in Updated, but 'MMM-EventHorizon' still shows as being behind.:

Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge

If you are sure you did not make any changes, then run this in the MMM-EventHorizon folder:

git reset --hard
git pull
npm install

@dcarls91 said in I am stuck need help:

@yawns thank you for doing that, I’m very new to this, what else do i need to do to the above config file you posted

Sorry, I did not see your reply. Copy the config I posted, save it as config.js and add your API keys and links to calendars again. Or, to clearly see the changes I made, use this:
https://www.diffchecker.com/QQhBPpNO

Left is your config, right is my fixed config.

I prefer jshint.com
In this case you missed a single comma in line userlon, so it should be:

		userlat: "47.302604", //MUST HAVE BOTH
	        userlon: "-122.33621",  //MUST HAVE BOTH
		zip: "98023"

You could try hooking up a usb keyboard to your raspberry (or whatever machine you are using for your magicmirror, and then press CTRL + 0 (zero). Maybe your zoom was active, this shortcut should reset to 100% zoom

Are you working directly on your raspberry (or using vnc)?
Then press alt + tab to switch to desktop or terminal (if it’s running). Or press ctrl+q in browser
