MMM-RemoteCompliments-Black Screen

@sdetweil Yes, I installed the modules individually and as directed. The APIs and all other things loaded successfully. I really think I am just confused with the simplicity of the config. At least I hope that is all:

^CInserted this at the bottom but above the line of the config.js. I have tried inserting it highter without the var config liine with no success
var config = {
modules: [
{
module: “MMM-RemoteCompliments”,

@shagtimetim said in MMM-RemoteCompliments-Black Screen:
isSpeechVisualizationEnabled: true
}
}
]
};
var config = {
modules: [
{
module: “MMM-RemoteCompliments”,what is that mess? there is only one config={ and one modules array
please see the links in my signature below on adding modules and making a config file

@sdetweil This is why I am glad you are the expert. Hopefully, I can return the favor one day. I will check out your links. Thank you Sam!

For other newbies reading this thread, the links beneath Sam’s name are priceless. However, degrading banter is not helpful on anyone’s thread including this one. That being said, I simply added a “},” also known in my world as a closed bracket with a comma beneath my AwesomeAlexa module. That solve my issue of the black screen. I am now getting a known issue related to the Electron of which there is help located on github. I may need additional assistance with this error, but even a newbie of two weeks can do some incredible things with the platform Mitch and others have willingly provided us

@shagtimetim i dont see how you can fix that with a },

@sdetweil Feel free to give it a shot. replace the XXX fields with your personal info:
