@ndaphne I added the code wrapper around config
next time after pasting the text, select it all, then push the button above the editor that looks like </>
now,
what are the [ and ] around the module entry
they should not be there -
@ndaphne a module entry starts with {
and ends with }they are in a list
modules:[ all in here {... module 1 }, { module 2 ... } ]the author might have shown the list wrapper

Ok, got that fixed and now I’m getting some responses in the startup messages. it appears to be looking for a module “showdown” that I cant seem to find.
Thank you for the pointers concerning the brackets. little by little I’ll learn.

@ndaphne looks like you didn’t do all the installation instructions as listed by the module readme
-
@sdetweil Boy I’m not sure what I missed
I’m certain I ran the installer and the “run install” command to install dependents.
Is there something I’m just not seeing?thank you for tolerating my shortcomings here. It’s deeply appreciated.
-
@ndaphne from the install instructions
1. Navigate into your MagicMirror's modules folder and execute git clone https://github.com/cbrooker/MMM-Todoist.git. A new folder will appear navigate into it. 2. Execute npm install to install the node dependencies.spacing is mine
step 2 was not done, or was not done where required
-
@sdetweil It works!!
I feel pretty silly now. I’m not sure how I misread that so many times… thank you so much for the help and hopefully I will pay closer attention.thank you again!
