MMM-ImageSlideshow not loading images

Brtrnd 0

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 = "&nbsp; 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/'], 
		}
	},
