        @yrayapati tell us more… what do you want to change, what have you done, what didn’t work…

        show your config
        here on the forum put 3 backtick marks (to the left of the number 1) before and after the info you post from config.js

            @yrayapati said in unable to change modules details:

            if u put that in a browser, does it download the ICS file?

            https://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calender/ics/33/India_Holidays.ics  // does not work  (notice the e in ical-calender
            https://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/33/India_Holidays.ics  // works

                  @sam below regarding weather
                  In the below piece of code they are saying that “unzip the gz file and find your city”
                  {
                  module: “currentweather”,
                  position: “top_right”,
                  config: {
                  location: “Hyderabad”,
                  locationID: “1176734”, //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/; unzip the gz file and find your city
                  appid: “YOUR_OPENWEATHER_API_KEY”
                  }
                  },
                  But in the link i could see two weather related files as:
                  –>weather_14.json.gz 14-Mar-2017 12:33 1564623
                  –>weather_16.json.gz 05-Apr-2019 11:08 8292321
                  I have downloaded “weather_16.json.gz” file and changes details respectively…
                  can you correct me if i have done anything worng

                    @yrayapati right _14 is from 2 years ago… some cities maybe have been discovered for openweather since then!..

                    and u got your api key, that matches the kind of weather u wanted…
