Hello all, I am working with the MMM-Buttons module to connect a push button to GPIO pin 25 (physical pin: 22) and have it start the stopwatch by notification. I tested my button using my terminal and found that it was connected fine, but when I set the configurations it does not do anything :(. Any help is much appreciated! Below is all I have modified. By the way, after major googling I found that the module uploaded by SmartMirror was buggy so I replaced it with this repository: https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-Buttons . config.js file: }, { module: "MMM-StopwatchTimer", config: { animation: true, sound: true, soundFile: 'buzz.wav', useNativeSound: true, useAlertStyle: true, //notification: ["START_STOPWATCH", "PAUSE_STOPWATCHTIMER"] } }, { module: 'MMM-Buttons', position: "middle_center", config: { buttons: [ { pin: 25, name: "test_button", longPress: { notification: "PAUSE_STOPWATCHTIMER", payload: {action: "PAUSE_STOPWATCHTIMER"} }, shortPress: { notification: "START_STOPWATCH", payload: {action: "START_STOPWATCH"} } } ] } } buttons.js file: Module.register("MMM-Buttons", { requiresVersion: "2.1.0", // Default module config. defaults: { buttons: [ { pin: 25, name: "test_button", longPress: { notification: "PAUSE_STOPWATCHTIMER", payload: {action: "PAUSE_STOPWATCHTIMER"} }, shortPress: { notification: "START_STOPWATCH", payload: {action: "START_STOPWATCH"} } } ], minShortPressTime: 0, maxShortPressTime: 500, minLongPressTime: 3000, bounceTimeout: 300 },```

@ changaud 1st, never edit a modules source file. all config goes in config.js did you use the right pin number ?
