        @sdetweil Apologies for my lack of knowledge, but I didn’t fully understand your response about the URL. Please keep in mind that I’m not very experienced with coding.

          @DarkV it takes a little bit of info

          a url contains
          a protocol type secure(https) or not (http)
          a server name or address
          a port
          a path
          and optionally some parameters

          for MMM-Config

          just protocol, server, port and path

          on your local network, we dont need to build our everything for secure encrypted communications

          if the machine you are opening the browser on is the same machine as MagicMirror is running, then you can use localhost
          otherwise you need to know the MagicMirror server ip address or network name

          the port value comes from the MagicMirror config.js, default is 8080
          (if you dont see a port specified in a url, then the browser uses the default for the protocol, 80 or 443 not/secure, as appropriate)

          and then the path, for MMM-Config there are two :

          for configuration
          /configure
          and for module installation
          /installer

          http://ip:port/configure

          on the same machine, using defaults
          http://localhost:8080/configure

            Hello, Newbie here, how do you go about using this? What do I need to get started? Do I need Node.js? Have it installed, yet completely lost. How about a guide or video. Thanks

              @IamWayne did you add the module to config.js?
              and restart MagicMirror?

              if so then the url from the doc

              http://ip:mm_port/configure

              but by default the MagicMirror config only allows apps from inside the same system to connect, so you would have to minimize MagicMirror then launch a browser to

              http://localhost:8080/configure

              or for the module installer

              http://localhost:8080/installer

                Oh I think that I understand now. I have to add this to the MM installer in the correct folder, correct?

                  @IamWayne this is an add on module, not part of the base

                  see the 1st link in my signature below for short topic about installing modules
