              @sdetweil I am soooooo new at this. I had it working once by someone else, card got corrupted and the person building it no longer available. So I’m trying to rebuild on my own. Not a coder, programmer or anything else.

              I’ve tried the modules, got the calendar and weather in the config.js but it doesn’t run.

              So what do you need me to show you?

                  @louise so, read the link… it will help A LOT…

                  from a command line, (terminal window) you need to change folders

                  cd new_folder_name

                  just like on windows
                  (except here the names are case sensitive)

                  when I said in doc

                  Clone this repo into ~/MagicMirror/modules directory.
                  

                  that means change directory (cd command)

                  cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
                  

                  u left off the cd

                  but the error implies you have not installed MagicMirror yet…

                  I have a script for that
                  see
                  https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

                  its just a cut/paste of one line

                      @josh45631 @mumblebaj i updated the readme to specify MM_IP_Address instead of ‘machine_name’ if you need/want/have to use the manual reivew url instead of the QR

                        Thank you for this! So I’m new to MM (you’ve got to love that phrase, right?) but slowly learning. I’ve got MM-Config running and can access it via a separate laptop on my network. I can see the running modules, and the QR Code, but when I go to turn a module on/off and “save,” it won’t do anything on the MM side. I can see the “config_last_change” file has the date and time, but can’t figure out why nothing is changing or saving.

                        Any ideas? Thanks again!
