    @sdetweil I did have showQR set to true in the module config, but the QR code wasn’s showing up.

    After changing the address in the mm config from localhost to 0.0.0.0 the QR code is now appearing on the magic mirror.

    Now when I try to access the form from my pc I get “This device is not allowed to access your mirror.
    Please check your config.js or config.js.sample to change this.”
    and the terminal on the pi says “Access denied to IP address: 192.168.2.5”

    I tried to add it to the ipWhitelist, but I don’t think I have the proper format because it’s not working?

    Module entry is:

    modules: [
                   {
                           module:"MMM-Config",
                           position:"top_right",  // the QR code (if requested) will appear here
                           config:{
    
                   }
                   },
                   {
                           module: "alert",
                   },
                   {
                           module: "updatenotification",
                           position: "top_bar"
                   },
                   {
                           module: "clock",
                           position: "top_left"
                   },
                   {
                           module: "calendar",
                           header: "US Holidays",
                           position: "top_left",
                           config: {
                                   calendars: [
                                           {
                                                   symbol: "calendar-check",
                                                   url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics"
                                           }
                                   ]
                           }
    

    etc

    This is how I tried to whitelist my computers ip

        ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1","192.168.2.5"],    // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
    
    

    I appreciate your help very much!

      @josh45631 said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

      ipWhitelist: [“127.0.0.1”, “::ffff:127.0.0.1”, “::1”,“192.168.2.5”],

      this means ONLY apps on THIS machine (127.0.0.1 = localhost) are allowed to connect, EVEN if address: is NOT localhost

      1st thing to do is disable whitelist , set to [] (means no ip filtering)
      fix it after u get things working

      also u really want to add

      showQR:true
      in the MMM-Config
      config section

                     {
                             module:"MMM-Config",
                             position:"top_right",  // the QR code (if requested) will appear here
                             config:{
                                    showQR:true 
                           }
                     },

        @sdetweil Ok here’s where I am. I think I’ve made the proper changes in the config file.
        Changed address to 0.0.0.0
        Changed ipWhitelist to []
        Added showQR: “true”

        I apologize if I’m being difficult. I was just getting very frustrated trying to manually configure modules, and when I stumbled across your module, I got excited! I feel like I’m overlooking something simple!:grimacing_face:

          @josh45631 said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

          showQR: “true”

          This should be showQR: true without the quotes. Not sure if it makes much of a difference.

          The URL I used and which worked for me was:
          http://localhost:8080/modules/MMM-Config/config.html?port=8300

          @sdetweil Very cool module.

            @josh45631 I had a typo which I corrected

            http://192.168.2.13:8080/modules/MM-Config/review
            

            notice the module name is MMM-Config

            3 M’s

            the content says the module is running

            if you use your phone on the qr does the page show?

              @mumblebaj don’t use the final url… use the review url as provided in the doc
              as the module discovers a free port for communication between the form and the module.

                There it is. I knew it would come down to something simple! I still can’t get to the form page by scanning the QR code, but I’m ok with that for now because I can access it via browser!

                Thank you so much!

                    @sdetweil Which URL in the doc? From the screenshots? The review URL did not work for me. The one I posted above did. The QR code gave me a different URL which did not work for me but guess it is because of my install on my Windows laptop.

                      @sdetweil I found the URL bit in the doc.
                      http://machine_name:MM_Port/modules/MMM-Config/review
                      Did not work for me when I tried it though.
