      Hey, I got some problems with using my remote file for complements. I do now know why i wont load my .json file.
      Here are some of the code used:

      Config.js
      ...
      {
          module: 'compliments',
          position: 'buttom',
          config: {
              updateInterval: 5 * 60 * 100,
              remoteFile: "compliments.json",
          }
      },
      ...
      
      compliments.json
      {
          "anytime" : [
              "Some Text",
              "Another text",
          ],
          "morning" : [
              "Morning text",
              "Another Morning text",
           ],
          ...
      }
      

      When I open the devoloper console in the MagicMirror application, I get this text out and I do not see where my code should make the issue.

      I do hope that someone can help me, since I do not know where the issue happens.

        @alhen18 the remotefile is supposed to start

        “compliments”:{
        }

        use one of the online json validators to make sure its valid

          @sdetweil Thanks, for the respons, I do not have any problem getting a remote .json file to work, I have tried with yours : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/testcompliments/main/mycompliments.json

          I think that I will just post mine on GitHub and there by also making it easier to edit in it at a later time :)

                  @sdetweil It is also places under /modules/default/compliments/file.json

                  And the .json file is build as i would construct a .json fil at any other given point
