Thank you for the help

@dcarls91

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

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

[dcarls91]

@yawns thank you for doing that, I’m very new to this, what else do i need to do to the above config file you posted

[antkaf]

Give this a try. A handy tool
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check
hope its sorted

[dcarls91]

Just wanted to say thanks again for all of the help. I have spent the last couple of days trying to figure this out to no avail. I have decided to scrap the project for now until I can figure out what I am doing because I clearly do not have a clue.
