      Hi
      I have a working MagicMirror instance running as a docker container on my NAS; and it shows via the website in kiosk mode.
      I wanted to add MMM-ImageSlideshow. I installed it but I can’t make it work.
      I’m still using the example config.js as written on the install page of the module.

      What I do see, in the developer tools; it loads the module.
      In the javascript code there is this at the end

      else {
        // if no data loaded yet, empty html
        wrapper.innerHTML = "  EMPTY HTML";
        console.log("Where is the error? ",this);
      }
      

      I do see the words empty html on the page; so no data is loaded. And it stays at this.
      I don’t see any other error messages (well, it tries to load custom.css/ and that fails, but that also happens without imageslideshow).’
      In the console log I don’t see much relevant when I print the this object. I see the imagepath (to the folder); but at no point do I actually see the paths to the images. Do those get loaded later?

      Does anyone know what the issue could be?

        @brtrnd-0 what is your config for the

        imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/example1']
        

        that from the doc

        Array value containing strings. Each string should be a path to a directory where image files can be found.

          @sdetweil I have the one from the docs indeed.

          {
          		module: 'MMM-ImageSlideshow',
          		position: 'bottom_center',
          		config: {
          			imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages'],
          		}
          	},
          

          or I also tried this to have two elements

          {
          		module: 'MMM-ImageSlideshow',
          		position: 'bottom_center',
          		config: {
          			imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages','modules/words/'], 
          		}
          	},
