    Hi. I’ve just installed MagicMirror on a Pi4. I’ve tried MMM-ImagesPhotos, MMM-BackgroundSlideshow & MMM-ImageSlideshow and all 3 modules when run only show a small icon instead of images. I’ve tried pointing MMM-ImageSlideshow at the example images folder & it does the same thing. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

      This applies to MMM-ImageSlideshow:

      My guess is this:

      1. The example config entry doesn’t show a closing comma after the last curly bracket.
      2. The imagePaths config option (in the example) is faulty (somewhat) . The array should read ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages'] in order for the module to work when cloned. You can verify this by looking at the repo for the module. A valid, but not complete, config entry follows. See the readme in the repo for all options:
      {
      module: 'MMM-ImageSlideshow',
      position: 'middle center',
      config: {
          imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages'],
          slideshowSpeed: 6000,
          fixedImageWidth: 250,
          fixedImageHeight: 250,
          randomizeImageOrder: true,
      		}
      	},

        @Mykle1 I’ve got it working now. I checked the syntax & compared it to your example, but I also originally had the imagePath connected to mnt/images. I changed the share to …/MMM-ImageSlideshow/Images and now it works fine. Thanks again.
