Remember do not post your api key for any app

Oops! :left_facing_fist_tone2:

@xVirus94 said in Trouble with MagicMirror:

@Mykle1 {
module: ‘currentweather’,
position: ‘top_left’,
config: {
location: ‘Forlì’,
locationID: ‘3176746’, //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
appid: ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’
}
},
Why doesn-t work?

Let’s take a look here…

Remember do not post your api key for any app ;)

At any rate this returns :

“invalid API key”… so you don’t have a correct API key, where did you get it from?

Plus you had Syntax errors… this is the correct way other than API Key…

{
             module: 'currentweather',
             position: 'top_left',
             config: {
                location: 'Forlì',
                locationID: '3176746', //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
                appid: 'ca7b4eb9089beeb6a71918a37f20b9'
                 }
                   },

What key???

The API key that you have to sign up for. It’s free. It should tell you where to go in the ReadMe.

If you are using the default weather module then you have to go to https://www.openweathermap.org/

Each weather module that requires an API key tells you in the ReadMe file where to go to get the key

Hi, thx for reply…i’m trying to install some interesting modules, like Forecast…ecc. because the default Forecast module doesn’t work…i have installed the new module but when i lunch my mirror i cant see the module on top-right…

You also need a key to make them work :)

ok, we’ll get you up and running.

i have installed the new module but when i lunch my mirror i cant see the module on top-right…

post your config.js file so we can have a look at it

Don’t need to apologize for bad English… heck 1/2 the people that speak English aren’t even good at it LOL
