      Hey guys, quick question

      Has anyone had a problem editing their config.js files for the third party modules? I had my mirror working great with the default modules but wanted to add airquality and traffic. I downloaded the modules just fine but when I edit my config file to include them it boots up as a blank screen, removal of the few lines of code for the respective modules and it goes back to normal working order. Thanks for the help!

        Could you share your not working config and the error log with us?

              Ok then try starting your mirror in server mode (‘node serveronly’ from your Mirror directory), goto your raspi´s ipaddr on port 8080 and check your browser console.

                @aubcar check your formating! You probably did something wrong adding the modules. You can check by using a javascript validator (Google it :))

                  @paviro Seems to be formatted ok, only yells at me to use spaces not tabs haha. Might try a fresh install of rasbian+MM incase I messed something up along the way.

                    @aubcar did you check your web inspector?

                      I faced the issue when I was working under MagicMirror folder and then installing the 3rd party modules.

                      I corrected it by going into /MagicMirror/Modules folder and then installing the module using the git command.

                      Hope this helps
