        @jeaniouso he said “a closing comma”, not semicolon,

        the config is a list (array ) of module entries
        each starts with { and ends with }
        if there is another one coming, add a ‘,’ to the end of the 1st, to say ‘more coming’

        it won’t hurt to have a ‘,’ after the module block }

        modules: [                                  // start of list (array)
        {                                           // start of a module 
        ...
        }                                           // end of a module entry
        ,                                           // another entry to follow
        {
        ...
        }, 
        etc
        etc
        ]                                           // end of the modules list (array)

                @jeaniouso but that is the default config.js, not the one w the module u are having trouble with…

                Also, u can edit your forum posts to correct posting errors.
                .I worked w u tonight, and u had the modules installed correctly, but the API key was not correct for some reason

                  Thank you so much for your tireless efforts! I finally have it working… I played around with the script after getting rid of errors pointed out by @Mykle1 plus his tutorial was excellent as I read it again and I opted for another API key that I found on here as suggested by @sdetweil … I finally got it working thanks to you two!! Now I can rest lol… Man what a workout!!!
