    Hey everyone. I’m very new to this and I cannot figure out these modules to save my life!! For example, here is the mitcoin module, and everytime I try it, I get the black screen like in the picture. You can see the other pictures and what I have going on with it all. I believe I saw something about this module having issues or discontinued, however I’ve tried other modules but I can’t seem to get them. Anyone available to try and help me out here? Another one I tried with a file path was the MMM-SimpleLogo. Just could not get it to show up on the screen with the other defaults. Id greatly appreciate any help. Thank you.

        @sdetweil ya I looked at that yesterday. I guess I just don’t understand what any of it’s saying. Thanks though.

          @sdetweil It’s not just the bitcoin. I can’t seem to get any single module to work. besides changing a few things in the defaults, I haven’t been able to do get a single thing to work for me in 4 days now. Can’t find any decent updated or recent YouTube videos as walk throughs either. I have to find someone who can actually help me add a couple step by step, then I’ll pick it up, but I’m just doing something wrong, prolly, simple, that I cannot figure out.

              @ludwigryan69 most of the tutorials and YouTube are old and don’t cover current issues.

              many old modules use stuff we removed. and will leave blank screens.

              that prior post tells u how to fix that, ONE module at a time
