    Hi
    I have a working MagicMirror instance running as a docker container on my NAS; and it shows via the website in kiosk mode.
    I wanted to add MMM-ImageSlideshow. I installed it but I can’t make it work.
    I’m still using the example config.js as written on the install page of the module.

    What I do see, in the developer tools; it loads the module.
    In the javascript code there is this at the end

    else {
      // if no data loaded yet, empty html
      wrapper.innerHTML = "  EMPTY HTML";
      console.log("Where is the error? ",this);
    }
    

    I do see the words empty html on the page; so no data is loaded. And it stays at this.
    I don’t see any other error messages (well, it tries to load custom.css/ and that fails, but that also happens without imageslideshow).’
    In the console log I don’t see much relevant when I print the this object. I see the imagepath (to the folder); but at no point do I actually see the paths to the images. Do those get loaded later?

    Does anyone know what the issue could be?

      @brtrnd-0 what is your config for the

      imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/example1']
      

      that from the doc

      Array value containing strings. Each string should be a path to a directory where image files can be found.

        @sdetweil I have the one from the docs indeed.

        {
        		module: 'MMM-ImageSlideshow',
        		position: 'bottom_center',
        		config: {
        			imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages'],
        		}
        	},
        

        or I also tried this to have two elements

        {
        		module: 'MMM-ImageSlideshow',
        		position: 'bottom_center',
        		config: {
        			imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages','modules/words/'], 
        		}
        	},
