      Hey guys, i need some help with the remoteFile for the compliments. I tried this:

      module: 'compliments',
                        position: 'lower_third',
                        config: {
                            updateInterval: 15000,
                            compliments: {
                            remoteFile: '~/MagicMirror/modules/default/compliments/remote_compliments.json',
                            morning: [
                                               'Guten Morgen!',
                                               'Wie hast du geschlafen?',
                                               'Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Tag!'
                                               ], ...
      

      but it´s not working.

      Content of remote_compliments.json:

                   {
                  "morning" : [
                        "Du siehst aber gut aus heute !",
                        "Gut geschlafen ?",
                        "Moin, Moin...."
                         ],
                   "afternoon" : [
                       "Ab Fussball spielen !",
                       "Lass uns auf den Abend vorbereiten....",
                        "Musik hören ?"
                        ],
                   "evening" : [
                        "Einen Cocktail ?",
                        "Wow, Du bist aber heiss heute...",
                        "Wollen wir heute abend weggehen ?"
                        ]
                   }

        I never played around with this, but the sample file content in the readme looks different.

            @schlachtkreuzer6 I’m a bit late to the party, but he path is correct. You just have to define remote_compliments.json like this.

            module: 'compliments',
                              position: 'lower_third',
                              config: {
                                  updateInterval: 15000,
                                  compliments: {
                                  remoteFile: 'remote_compliments.json',
                                  morning: [
                                                     'Guten Morgen!',
                                                     'Wie hast du geschlafen?',
                                                     'Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Tag!'
                                                     ], ...
