      At first glance, I see you’re missing a closing comma at the end of the transit module entry. You can start there. :-)

        @Mykle1 Hi Mykle, I appreciate your reply… I see that you’re in the big apple like me , I hope that you’re well and staying healthy.

        So, I tried adding ; to the last curly and I restarted MM however, a splash screen popped up upon restart.2020-05-15-080937_1024x768_scrot.png

            @jeaniouso he said “a closing comma”, not semicolon,

            the config is a list (array ) of module entries
            each starts with { and ends with }
            if there is another one coming, add a ‘,’ to the end of the 1st, to say ‘more coming’

            it won’t hurt to have a ‘,’ after the module block }

            modules: [                                  // start of list (array)
            {                                           // start of a module 
            ...
            }                                           // end of a module entry
            ,                                           // another entry to follow
            {
            ...
            }, 
            etc
            etc
            ]                                           // end of the modules list (array)

                    @jeaniouso but that is the default config.js, not the one w the module u are having trouble with…

                    Also, u can edit your forum posts to correct posting errors.
                    .I worked w u tonight, and u had the modules installed correctly, but the API key was not correct for some reason

                      Thank you so much for your tireless efforts! I finally have it working… I played around with the script after getting rid of errors pointed out by @Mykle1 plus his tutorial was excellent as I read it again and I opted for another API key that I found on here as suggested by @sdetweil … I finally got it working thanks to you two!! Now I can rest lol… Man what a workout!!!
