default modules not showing for strangers

[mschlesinger19]

I have found that when the module recognizes a stranger, those modules just labeled "default" are not shown. Classes "default everyone" are shown for strangers but "default" are not shown. Is anyone else seeing this issue? Maybe my configuration is incorrect.

Should be like you said. I need to test that on my system and fix it.

@nischi have you had the opportunity to work on this? :)

I'm sorry, not yet.

I have a similar problem but with "everyone". I've have found that there are other classes that work in specific ways.

• "nobody" works that same as "default". It seems that any other made up class name works like "default". This may help mschlesinger19
• "unknown" works when someone who is unknown to the facial recognition logs in - this seems to be an extra undocumented class. This is useful functionality. It also allows me to work around "everyone" not working correctly, by doing the extra configuration of using all the known profiles and "unknown" instead of "everyone"

For me,

• when there is no one in front of the camera: VISIBLE="default", "default everyone", "everyone default", "nobody" INVISIBLE="unknown"
• when I login as "me": VISIBLE="me", "default everyone", "everyone default" INVISIBLE="unknown", "everyone" (ERROR), "default"
• when someone else who is known logs in: VISIBLE="default everyone", "everyone default" are visible INVISIBLE="unknown", "everyone" (ERROR), "default"
• when someone who is unknown logs in: VISIBLE="default everyone", "everyone default", "unknown" INVISIBLE="unknown", "everyone" (ERROR), "default"

I've looked at the code and there is actually nowhere in the code that will show the "everyone" class when a user logs in and hide it when they log out. This is why it does not work.

There is code in there that would

• not hide "everyone" if it was already showing when someone logs in. This seems to assume that before login "everyone" would already be showing, which is not how "everyone" is supposed to work
• not show "everyone" when someone logs and there are no more logged in users. Again, the same logic that seems to assume you want to show "everyone" when someone logs out.

The code looks good for "default" so I'm not sure what the problem is as reported by mschlesinger19

I have fix up the code in my local version. I'm not sure how I would go about putting it back in github .....
