      @greedyvegan the trailing comma says more content follows.

      if it’s not there, then the next thing must start something new,
      if the thing isn’t finished, then lack of a trailing comma will produce an error ( Unexpected token)

      in your example, after the url: “…”

      there are no more properties in config section, so it is done, no commas required

        @greedyvegan address/ipwhitelist are mm config properties, only

        address:“0.0.0.0”, // means listen on all adapters, wifi and ethernet if both enabled,
        WITHOUT having to specify the ACTUAL ip address

        port: 8080 // default

        so you would use your PC browser to connect to the ip address/name of the machine running mm:port number

        http://ip_address_or_name:port

        ipwhitelist:[] // provides a way to allow ONLY specific addresses, ON YOUR NETWORK, to connect to mm.
        if you didn’t want your kids to connect to it for some reason.

        to access disk and have ssh,use bitwise or winscp clients from your PC. will give use ssh window and file manager type access to files on pi

            @greedyvegan on the restart on change, pm2 seems flaky there.
            but I have only configured to watch config.js

            to refresh w css just refresh the MM page.

            ctrl-r on the MM content, f5 on the dev window content

            you can do all the developers window from any pc that can get the MM screen

                @greedyvegan you can also try my MMM-Config module if you want to avoid the editing troubles of config.js

                  I’ve tried ipWhitelist “[]” and “[my ipaddress]” and nothing,
                  but I’m going to try again

                  I’m going to give this a shot

                  I’ve been refreshing or closing the MM window

                  I’m going to try that now
                  thanks a lot.

                    @greedyvegan it’s

                    address:'0.0.0.0',
                    ipWhitelist:[] 
                    

                    either single or double quotes

                    then you can access from your phone or pc

                    http://pi_ipaddress:8080
                    

                    my pi is called raspberrypi4
                    so

                    http://raspberrypi4:8080

                      the ip address didn’t work, the name worked this time,
                      I put the whitelist under address like in your example

                      thank you very much

                        @greedyvegan the mm server ip address would be something like

                        192.168.1.???
                        if you do ping your name it should return the server address
