Black Screen on Localhost...
-
I kept getting a blank screen too. Basically I commented out all of the modules and uncommented them back one by one. In the end, the calendar and newsfeed modules are not working and that’s what is giving me the black screen. I had to remove the following from the config file:
{
module: ‘calendar’,
header: ‘US Holidays’,
position: ‘top_left’,
config: {
calendars: [
{
symbol: 'calendar-check-o ',
url: ‘webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics’
}
]
}
},and
{
module: ‘newsfeed’,
position: ‘bottom_bar’,
config: {
feeds: [
{
title: “New York Times”,
url: “http://www.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml”
}
],
showSourceTitle: true,
showPublishDate: true
}
}, -
Whenever i get an error when im trying sth i open the mirror-page in Firefox or chrome and open the console with a right click and the last item (examine or sth like this). Maybe this will hell you to know where sth could be wrong.

Can u enable port forwarding (8080) to ur Pi/PC for the MagicMirror and PM me an IP?
Maybe I can take a look with the console. When there’s an error, maybe we can find out more. -
