config

[sdetweil]

@geo said in config:

  {
  	module: "currentweather",
  	position: "top_right",
  	config: 
  		location: "",
  		locationID: "53.9576",  //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
  		appid: "76b503a29647f3a01dd9ba1055daea6d",
  	}
  },

should be

		{
			module: "currentweather",
			position: "top_right",
			config:  {    // < ---- missing open brace
				location: "",
				locationID: "53.9576",  //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
				appid: "76b503a29647f3a01dd9ba1055daea6d",
			}
		},

this

		{
			module: "weatherforecast",
			position: "top_right",
			header: "Weather Forecast",
			config: {
				location: "",
				
				,
				locationID: "53.9576",  //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
				appid: "76b503a29647f3a01dd9ba1055daea6d",
			}
		}

should be

		{
			module: "weatherforecast",
			position: "top_right",
			header: "Weather Forecast",
			config: {
				location: "",
				
				//,   < ---  remove extra comma
				locationID: "53.9576",  //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
				appid: "76b503a29647f3a01dd9ba1055daea6d",
			}
		}

[sdetweil]

@geo needs to be done from inside the MagicMirror folder…

[geo]

@sdetweil hi after another attempt i find the config is empty all that is available is the sample

[sdetweil]

@geo i posted the corrected config.js above, cut/paste it back into the ~/MagicMiror/config/config.js file

[geo]

@geo would it be better to delete and re install

[sdetweil]

@geo no… just missing the config file…
select the text in my post above, right click mouse, select copy,
then open an editor on the file and right click mouse paste

i use ssh and BitVise ssh client so I can access and edit files thru my windows machine
