      @johnnyboy your quotes are wrong only " and ' are valid, but on your screenshot you used different ones which is causing the error

      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          @johnnyboy no you didn’t use markdown syntax, the forum messes up quotes if their not in set in markdown codeblock.

          your second calendar uses different quotes

          Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

              @johnnyboy as i said your pictures don’t show everything and your code snippet is corrupt, why you not just trying it out and if it doesnt work you report again?

              Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                                  @johnnyboy as I said earlier you can use single and double quotes, it doesn’t matter which one, but it has to be either " or ' and you used a backtick `, which is not working

                                  Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                                      @johnnyboy said in messed up my config.. MM tells me to create a config file:

                                      };

                                      I see that you got one }; that are making the error should look like this }, if i am right but i am new to this to so i can be wrong :)

                                            Hey,

                                            I have some issues here too. Not very familiar with Linux and just got my first RPI, for this project specifically :)

                                            I’ve been trying for hours now to get this to work, but MM just says that I need a working config file. I’ve tried editing the text in Sublime (I find it easier to read than the built in texteditor on Raspbian), but I can’t seem to find the errors.

                                            I’m attaching the contents of my config file, minus the tokens and stuff:
