        I think it was not the fault of the module itself. You’d better remove all your current google project and create new one then try again.

              I’m trying to use this module and am having trouble. Right now I don’t see any output from it. No problem with the authentication step. auth_and_test.js gave me the AlbumId. The config I’m using is:

                                      module: "MMM-GooglePhotos",
                                      position: "top_right",
                                      config: {
                                              albumId: "A[removed for posting]dj4",
                                              refreshInterval: 1000*60,
                                              scanInterval: 1000*60*10,
                                              sort: "random",
                                              showWidth: "80%",
                                              originalWidthPx: 800,
                                              originalHeightPx: 600,
                                              mode: "contain"
                                      }
                              },
              

              The album exists and has 2 sample images in it. I don’t see anything relevant in the log:

              Loading config ...
              Loading module helpers ...

              Sockets connected & modules started ...
              
              
              Ready to go! Please point your browser to: http://localhost:8080
              

              System is pi zero running in server_only mode. (I’ve also tried on Windows/server_only as well, same behavior). I didn’t see if there’s a way to make things more verbose to see what the module is doing. I’m sure I’ve got an error, but I can’t see what it is.

                It’s weird. Because

                No helper found for module: MMM-GooglePhotos.
                

                means you have no node_helper.js in your module directory. Have you removed?

                  @sean Nope, just unfamiliar with installation. I thought the npm install took care of the location, and I didn’t have it in the modules directory. Once I put it there, I got log output and tried playing around to make it visible.

                  My configuration above is still blank, but if I change the position to “fullscreen_below”, it shows the image. It seems that if the position is the same as some other module, it is shown (but very small). if the position is not fullscreen, but different from any other, then it doesn’t appear.

                  My intent is to have the photos on one side (top to bottom) and have some other items beside it. If I leave it fullscreen and set showWidth to 60%, it almost works. It stays on the left, so I can put other items on the right. But the image isn’t centered vertically. There’s a black bar at the bottom that is never drawn. It seems to be centered vertically within the remaining space.

                    I think you should adjust your custom.css.
                    add this to your css/custom.css

                    .fullscreen.below {
                      width:75%;
                    }
                    

                    And you would set showWidth and showHeight as 100%, mode as cover.

                    Then, you can get like this;

                        I added new photos to my album but they are not displaying. Do I need to update the ScanInterval? What does the 1000 60 10 do exactly?
