      {
      module: “currentweather”,
      position: “top_right”,
      config: {
      location: “New York”,
      locationID: “”, //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
      appid: “YOUR_OPENWEATHER_API_KEY”
      }
      },
      {
      module: “weatherforecast”,
      position: “top_right”,
      header: “Weather Forecast”,
      config: {
      location: “New York”,
      locationID: “5128581”, //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
      appid: “YOUR_OPENWEATHER_API_KEY”
      }
      },

      one thing I see is a blank spot…

      {
      			module: "currentweather",
      			position: "top_right",
      			config: {
      				location: "New York",
      				locationID: "",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
      				appid: "YOUR_OPENWEATHER_API_KEY"
      			}
      		},
      		{
      			module: "weatherforecast",
      			position: "top_right",
      			header: "Weather Forecast",
      			config: {
      				location: "New York",
      				locationID: "5128581",  //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt
      				appid: "YOUR_OPENWEATHER_API_KEY"
      			}
      		},
      

      locationID: "", can’t be left blank
      use the same code for weatherforecast: locationID: "5128581",

              @sollekram Next time, it’s advisable to run

              npm run config:check
              

              This will tell you the errors.

              You can then e.g.

              sudo nano -c config.js
              

              to have the line numbers in nano and look up the lines.

                @lavolp3 Is not there somewhere a list of all the commands that are recommended for the MagicMirror.

                Also how to drive down the Raspberry PI Properly. I found a lot of different species on the internet. I now use the following shutdown command:

                sudo shutdown -h now

                    @cyrus1337 I think this command is also included in the README of MM.
                    But it may be worth setting up a list. Don’t know. Maybe I’ll try :-)

                    Your shutdown command is the one I would use as well.
                    There are different commands giving the same result. The one you mentioned is the one mostly recommended.

                      @lavolp3 Ok, then I’m glad I’m using the right command. Partially, the PI is not averse, for whatever reason. Then I just pull the plug.

                      The list would really be a great idea. Because I’m really a newbi in this area. I can probably do various things on the PC, but the whole programming language are hieroglyphs for me, if you have mine. Because I have no background in this field. Maybe I can help you in another area 😉

                        @cyrus1337 If you’re really into the magicmirror stuff, it might be worth the time to do a little javascript training. There are courses all around the net, I’m currently doing some courses that have been offered for free on udemy.

                        It may help a lot with not too much effort.
