      I did try to configure an external compliments.json file, however it seems that it is not interpreted, since I do get again the default compliments.
      The file is located within the config directory.
      My configuration:

      { module: 'compliments', position: 'lower_third', config: { remoteFile: 'compliments.json' } },

      Do you have a hint what might be wrong ?

        @Steff Due to my own incompetence when dealing with javascript, the external file needs to have quotes around the array names. If you are expanding the arrays within the config.js file, then you must remove the quotes from around the names.
        So this would work in the config.js file:

        evening : [
                "Einen Cocktail ?",
                "Wow, Du bist aber heiss heute...",
                "Wollen wir heute abend weggehen ?"
                ]
        

        and this should work in the external compliments file:

        "evening" : [
                "Einen Cocktail ?",
                "Wow, Du bist aber heiss heute...",
                "Wollen wir heute abend weggehen ?"
                 ]
        

        It’s a bug. But I’m a Java programmer, not a Javascript programmer. I don’t know how to fix it.

          Hi all,

          After update my MM and want to open the mm via http://ip:8080 i get a blank Black screen. It comes on Win10 and also Android with Chrome.

          The Majorfailure is, the rpi stop working. So i can only disconnect the power and connect again.

          Has anybody else this issue?

          Regals

            No, not such a major issue with the pi.

            Can you access your pi with ssh?

            Take a look at

                        @teandryk I too had this problem earlier today. I solved it by navigating to /node_modules/electron
                        and run “sudo node install.js”. Have some patience - it took a loooong time. I ended up leaving it and went to do something else. When I got back half an hour later it was done and the mirror was running.

                        Hope it helps. Good luck :-)

                            @teandryk @arosenhave Hello, I have run into the same issue wanting to install the magic mirror² framework on my windows laptop to develop a module. Running sudo node install.js from my powershell or from a node.js prompt did nothing to solve my problem. As far as I gathered, the issue come from this 2 not-updated packages that MagicMiror is using : https://github.com/geedew/grunt-yamllint/blob/master/package.json and the one called grunt-eslint. Both did not update their package.json (and maybe code) as the grunt developpers asked : http://gruntjs.com/blog/2016-04-04-grunt-1.0.0-released#peer-dependencies . Here is a topic on a forum surrounding that updating issue. However I am uncertain about what to do right now to solve it since the raspeberry pi environment and a laptop are not similar.

                              @poutr if you are running on Windows just type npm install in the main folder and you should be good to go (assuming you have node.js installed on your pc)

                                @tosti007 Well, it’s the

                                npm install 
                                

                                that failed. But updating npm solved the issue since I had npm version 2.x.x (I think, not sure since I did not save the command prompt before the update). From the grunt dev page, higher npm version only raises warning for lower version number requirements and does nothing for

                                "grunt" : ">=version_number"
                                

                                Which is good.

                                Forgot to report that the solution there worked when I tested https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/971/dependency-problems/6
