## Category Ideas
@@ -264,6 +216,64 @@ The display uses a layout similar to the calendar manager:
- **Subtitle**: Smaller gray text below the title
- **Description**: Wrapped text if subtitle is empty
## Rotation Logic (Subtitle/Description and Category)
There are two types of rotation in the Of The Day display system:
### 1. Subtitle/Description Rotation
- **What:** Within a single "Of The Day" category, the display always shows the Title at the top. Below the title, it alternates between showing the Subtitle and the Description.
- **How:** The Subtitle and Description rotate every `subtitle_rotate_interval` seconds (default: 10 seconds).
- **Example:**
- 10s: Title + Subtitle
- 10s: Title + Description
- 10s: Title + Subtitle
- ...
### 2. Category Rotation
- **What:** The display can show multiple "Of The Day" categories (e.g., Word of the Day, Slovenian Word of the Day). It rotates between these categories.
- **How:** The currently displayed category switches every `display_rotate_interval` seconds (default: 30 seconds).
- **Example:**
- 30s: Word of the Day (with subtitle/description alternating every 10s)
- 30s: Slovenian Word of the Day (with subtitle/description alternating every 10s)
- ...
### Configuration Example
Add these settings to your `of_the_day` section in `config/config.json`:
```json
"of_the_day": {
"enabled": true,
"update_interval": 3600,
"subtitle_rotate_interval": 10, // Seconds to rotate subtitle/description
"display_rotate_interval": 30, // Seconds to rotate between categories
"category_order": ["word_of_the_day", "slovenian_word_of_the_day"],
"categories": {
"word_of_the_day": {
"enabled": true,
"data_file": "word_of_the_day.json"
},
"slovenian_word_of_the_day": {
"enabled": true,
"data_file": "slovenian_word_of_the_day.json"
}
}
}
```
- **subtitle_rotate_interval**: How often (in seconds) to switch between subtitle and description for the current category.
- **display_rotate_interval**: How often (in seconds) to switch to the next category in `category_order`.
#### Example Display Flow
```
[0-10s] Word of the Day: Title + Subtitle
[10-20s] Word of the Day: Title + Description
[20-30s] Word of the Day: Title + Subtitle
[30-40s] Slovenian Word of the Day: Title + Subtitle
[40-50s] Slovenian Word of the Day: Title + Description
[50-60s] Slovenian Word of the Day: Title + Subtitle
