      @sdetweil Good point. It really should specify the google API as a dependency and tell you to install the module with npm.

        @bhepler it does, that is the text of the instructions

        really it should have a package.json, which documents all these and makes it so the user doesn’t have to read and type

          the markdown features

          ok so when I put in npm install googleapis
          I get the following error message:

          I checked the location as instructed, and it showed that the installed modules were default en MMM-RemoteCompliments, so it is in the correct spot.

          I checked the log, and I get the following error message:

            @justtrying said in MMM-RemoteCompliments does not appear:

            /home/pi/node_modules

            but it looks like you are not in the MM folder or the module folder where u need to install this

            looks like you are in the users home folder (/home/pi)

            for a module, you should be in

            /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/???modulename???

              I tried to do as you said, so changed it to MMM-RemoteCompliments, and got this:

                run `npm audit fix` to fix them, or `npm audit` for details
              
              

              Still no remote compliments showing up sadly. I’m thinking about rebooting the entire thing and reinstalling MM.

                @justtrying I haven’t used that. module. but maybe it has the same problem as remote control.
                .see this topic

                  @sdetweil Followed these instructions, still no module appearing. It really sucks, I tried reinstalling everything, followed every instruction to a T (even though the setup instructions are outdated), but it just doesn’t work.

                    @justtrying they introduced a bug in 2.11

                    fix was to. put back the 2.10 version of the file.

                    2.12 supposedly fixes it correctly. 2.12 has other problems

                      @sdetweil as I said, I followed the instructions, I changed the socketclient.js file, still nothing.
                      The MM is up to date as well.

                          I would try starting over. I had a couple problems when I installed it, but I found every time the answers were actually in the instructions, just not quite how I would have expected to see them.

                              @sdetweil I should have kept notes on what I didn’t do initially, but was in a hurry. I’ll be making a second mirror soon, and will do that.

                                @tf2 u don’t have to ‘install’ the repo to edit it.

                                just git clone your fork somewhere

                                  @sdetweil Sure. But if I don’t recall what problems I ran into and how I solved them, I won’t k ow what to modify in the documentation until I try following the instructions again.
