MMM-Remote-Control

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the remote control of the MM. I have it up and running, but I can’t edit the view in the browser on any device. Any help?

    In the browser i get the same pop-up. I have added my ip-address to the whitelist so i can acces it. The only thing I can’t do is edit the view.

    @yorickmolema It actually fixed itself by me but im not sure what I did. It tried moving things around in the config file but not sure what else. I also dont get my IP address on screen but thats a separate issue.

    If I click away the error and press save I get the following error in the terminal where I started MM:

    undefined
Whoops! There was an uncaught exception...

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

    },
{
		module: "newsfeed",

		config: {

    And it doesn’t work yet. I couldn’t copy your config cause then i got an error that the text editor wouldn’t save it.
