You may want to start from scratch, adding one module at a time and running the mirror to confirm your entries are correct. Then add the next module and repeat. There are a bunch of errors which leads me to believe that you added everything at once. Really, that’s the best way to do it and you learn the process at the same time. If an entry fails then you know where the problem is because you’re saving the config after each successful addition.

Thank you, I’ll try that. I’m honestly in over my head i believe, but I’m gonna keep working on it.

Thank you for the help

You’re welcome. If you have trouble adding one module, by all means, come back here and ask for help. Troubleshooting the addition of one module is a whole lot easier than troubleshooting your entire config. So, start with the default config and try adding a single module. Keep me posted

In your config fil are missing a lot of , and ]
check this

BKeyport

One of the best commands to know is

 npm run config:check

Start at the topmost error and work your way down the file - it’s got lots of problems, but is easily fixed. Also, I highly recommend a graphical type editor if possible - Geany is what I use.

I installed samba on my magic mirror so I can edit with the PC version of Geany and save it right to the Pi. It’s great.

You missed some ,, some ] and some }
Oh, and you should never post your apikeys or links to personal calendars. I truncated both for you
