Hi I am new to this and I did so I think all that is to be done and it still do not work tell me to config.js file
},
{
module: ‘MMM-Jnews’
config: {
apiKey: “my api”,
image : true
}
},

OK first off you have to go to https://newsapi.org/ and get your api key…the key they give you has to go in between the quotes like this [for example]

apiKey : “aabjadjfadfas9adfajsdlfja”

The rest of the config should work for you as I’ve rewritten it… use the above example only go get the api and replace “my apikey” with “YOUR KEY” put in quotes that you get from the newsapi.org link :)

You know I just had to give you some sh** a little bit.

It is a nice module, as I suspected, no way to get local news without making some changes to your code.

I really like the set up though.

Great job! (as usual!) :grinning_face: :grinning_face: :grinning_face:

Yes it’s news from a bunch of different sources all brought together…

I’m getting just a little bit tired of all your success. ;-)

Great module. I like it. Question: Some lines of text consist of 3 lines and the next message is 4. As a result, the modules above will always jump “up and down”. Can you set the module to 4 lines and these automatically fill depending on the content? Do you understand what I want to express?

@jeffreyking -
Just in case nobody else mentions it, you should delete the advice in the square brackets from your config.js file. The part that looks like this: [default is false, Raspberry Pi's don't like the images]

Delete in the part in the square brackets from the next line as well. They are commentary from the developer.

@bjoern I do and I will look at it :)

@bhepler Changed the README.md as this has happened more than once LOL
