      I’m struggling with setting this up and getting it to display, was hoping someone may be able to provide some insight as to what I may be doing wrong. Below is from my config file:

      		{
      			module: "MMM-OpenWeatherForecast",
      			position: "top_right",
      			header: "Forecast",
      			config: {
      				apikey: "my_api_key",
      				latitude: 42.528580,
      				longitude: -114.825435,
      				units: "imperial",
      				iconset: "4c",
      				colored: true,
      				concise: true,
      				showFeelsLikeTemp: true,
      				showCurrentConditions: true,
      				extraCurrentConditions: {
      					highLowTemp: true,
      					precipitation: true,
      					sunrise: true,
      					sunset: true,
      					wind: true,
      					barometricPressure: false,
      					humidity: true,
      					dewPoint: false,
      					uvIndex: true,
      					visibility: false
      					},
      					
      					forecastLayout: "table",
      					forecastHeaderText: "",
      
      					hourlyForecastTableHeaderText: "By the hour",
      					showHourlyForecast: true,
      					showHourlyTableHeaderRow: true,
      					hourlyForecastInterval: 1,
      					maxHourliesToShow: 10,
      					hourlyExtras: {
      						precipitation: true,
      						wind: true,
      						barometricPressure: false,
      						humidity: false,
      						dewPoint: false,
      						uvIndex: false,
      						visibility: false
      					  },
      					  
      					  dailyForecastTableHeaderText: "Throughout the week",
      					  showDailyForecast: true,
      					  showDailyTableHeaderRow: true,
      					  maxDailiesToShow: 5,
      					  dailyExtras: {
      						precipitation: true,
      						sunrise: false,
      						sunset: false,
      						wind: true,
      						barometricPressure: false,
      						humidity: false,
      						dewPoint: false,
      						uvIndex: false
      					  },
      			}

          Nothing unfortunately. It’s the same ‘Loading…’ message under the Forecast that appeared by default when I first installed MagicMirror.

            @gembob edit the node_helper.js

            and change this

                  var url = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?" +
            

            to this

                  var url = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?" +

              @sdetweil sorry for the long delay in my reply; I made the change as recommended and I’m still having the same issue, just a constant Loading screen for weather

                  @sdetweil - well that’s frustrating! Would my best bet now be to try a new api key? Any other basic steps I could try that I might have screwed up?

                    @gembob I don’t know

                    I cloned
                    did npm install in the module folder
                    copied your config to my config.js
                    added my apikey
                    and ran

                    no other changes

                        I wiped and started over, and still having issues getting it to display like you are. I used by api key with the standard weather modules and it appears to work so I think I’m doing something wrong elsewhere. What do you do with the two existing weather modules that are in the config file by default, weather and weather forecast? Do you leave them, delete them?
