      MMM-BackgroundSlideshow

      did u do the npm install in the module folder? it has required dependencies…

      usually black screen means something missing

        I thought I had, but I did it again. Does the message mean something is ‘wrong’?

          @CliffordW no. That’s ok.

          If you do, npm start dev
          Select the console tab and scroll up to see any errors

          Do u see anything in red?

            @sdetweil Considering how early on I am, I’m just going to wipe it clean and start again. Thanks for your help, I’ll be back to let you know either way.

              @sdetweil As I suspected. I rebuilt it, and it’s working now. Obviously some kind of newbie error. Thanks again!
