        You are absolutely right. I checked the api and it is only in English.

          Thanks. This API is only in English. However, if you can find one in your language I’ll be happy to give it a go.

            I only see the square blocks where it is supposed to have the Chinese translation.

            I used the Raspbian Jessie lite; Is there possibly a dependency that this needs that is not included?

              First, thanks for trying out my module.

              Second, thanks for pointing that out. I neglected to include npm install into the ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Fortune in the installation instructions of the readme.

              Other than that, the characters are part of the data itself, as you can see.

              [{"fortune":{"message":"One false move may lose the game.","id":"8"},"lesson":{"english":"English-language books","chinese":"英文书","pronunciation":"Yīngwén shū","id":""},"lotto":{"id":"","numbers":[33,55,18,30,17,10]}}]
              

              Hopefully, the dependencies will fix your problem. If it is a problem with jesse lite then I really don’t know how to correct the issue.

              Let me know how you make out.

                I just downloaded and re-installed MMM-Fortune just to see what would happen. Before I even installed the dependencies it worked fine, albeit, on my windows dev machine. Installed the dependencies and again, it worked fine. I hope Jessie Lite, or the version of Pi you are using, isn’t the reason for the characters not being displayed.

                  Thanks for the response. I ended up having to install the following

                  sudo apt-get install fonts-font-awesome
                  

                  Then ran through the raspi-config again to set to None as default. Guess the Jessie Lite does not include the font your module needed.

                    That’s interesting… I was also unable to reproduce the issue you had. There must be something different within Raspbian Jessie lite that does this… not really sure but it’s a good catch!!

                    Did you do this in the root "MagicMirror’ or in the MMM-Fortune directory?
