<![CDATA[Weather module not loading]]>After the DarkSky modules stopped working I decided to switch to the default weather module, but I can’t get it to show.

Here is what I have in the config file:

{
            module: "weather",
            position: "top_center",
            header: "Weather",
            config: {
              weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
              type: "forecast",
              locationID: "5089578",
              apikKey: "###",
            },
           
        },

I am not sure why it doesn’t load.

https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/weather.html#configuration-options, else it defaults to ‘/weather’

My working OpenWeather module uses “appid”. Also, should it be “apiKey” (with only one “K”)?

I am using a config based off an old version, so I looked at the latest config.js.sample from the repo (https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/blob/master/config/config.js.sample ), and it uses apiKey (with only one “K”).

{
			module: "weather",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
				type: "current",
				location: "New York",
				locationID: "5128581", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
				apiKey: "YOUR_OPENWEATHER_API_KEY"
			}
		},

Lastly, if you have just generated your OpenWeather api key, it takes some amount of time (24 hours?) before it will start working. Hope this helps.

set the initialLoadDelay parm to 100
