    @socrates said in Any module I add turns to blank screen.:

                         longitude: "95.83688",
    

    we are west of england, so longitude should be negative (right?)… I am in texas too,

    so, if u fix that and leave units off, it will take from the top of config

            @socrates easy, maps.google.com, get the map of your location, in the url, delete the minus sign on longitude, and press enter

            it will map that location… zoom out til u figure out where that is

              Thank you for your help. I have successfully managed to add quite a bit of useful modules as per my requirements, and have added styling to the fonts etc.
              However there are two things I am unable to get around.
              First is the wallpaper module.
              If i use the default bing option for the source, it wont show more than 10 wallpapers, i have tried to change the “maximumEntries” to 20 or more and it still wont show more than the original 10 wallpapers it loaded the first day (3 days back). Then i tried to change the source to Flickr groups, and it wont show anything now. Please have a look at my code snippet below.

                              {
                                      module: "MMM-Wallpaper",
                                      position: "fullscreen_below",
                                      config: { // See "Configuration options" for more information.
                                      source: "flickr-group:113291043@N05",
                                      maximumEntries: "20",
                                      slideInterval: 60 * 1000 // Change slides every minute
                                              }
                              }, 
              

              The second item is, i am not able to increase the calendar items, right now it only shows me 5 or 6 items, i am trying to increase it to 10 and it still show the default items.
              see below.

                              {
                                      module: "calendar",
                                      header: "Holidays & Reminders",
                                      position: "top_left",
                                      maximumEntries: "20",
                                      config: {
                                              calendars: [
                                                      {
                                                              symbol: "calendar-check",
                                                              url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics",
                                                              maximumEntries: 20,
                                                      },
                                                      {
                                                              symbol: "calendar-check",
                                                              url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/lxxxxxxxxx.ics",
                                                              maximumEntries: 20
                                                      }
                                              ]
                                      }
                              },

                                                calendars: [
                
                Configuration options

                    numbers should never be in quotes
