      I havent been able to get anything on my calender to show, i think its cuz its not a .ical? Im trying to get the color full weeks view but got nothing but what defualt top left looks like when installed.

      I tried to install MMMBitcoin as well but nothing. Do i need to do more than just type in the nano.config.js?

        @clarkcrew32 the calendar module ONLY processes ics files…
        there is no embedded view support.

        you can use one of the modules that does iframe and view the calendar that way
        or use the default with ICS and use something like MMM-CalendarExt3 or MMM-MiniMonth to see a wall calendar view

        on bitcoin
        can you show the message output from npm start
        if you are using pm2 to autolaunch MM, then
        pm2 logs --lines=xxxx
        where xxx is some number of the most recent lines, default 15 (may need 100 or more to view that far back_

            cd ~/MagicMirror/config
            cp config.js.sample config.js
            

            that copies the sample we provide

                  @clarkcrew32 that fetch us on every 7 days

                  during dev i would change it to a few minutes 5*60*1000

                  another thing to test

                  from a terminal window try to download the ics

                  curl -sL  the_cal_url >somefile.txt
                  

                  then examine the contents of somefile.txt
                  for BEGIN:VEVENT…

                    @clarkcrew32 check for errors

                    not in nano
                    but you can run the checker

                    npm run config:check

                    we do that on every startup now and fail if there is some problem.

                      @clarkcrew32 hiya I’m not familiar with the MMM-Bitcoin module, but just taking a look at the github page for it at https://github.com/valmassoi/MMM-bitcoin it doesn’t look like the install instructions are complete (it only suggests adding the module config to your config.js)

                      AFAIK to install a module to your mirror, you’re going to need to clone the repository to your modules directory, as well as add its config.

                      (apologies, you might know to do this all already, but just to make sure …)

                      try going

                      cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
                      git clone https://github.com/valmassoi/MMM-bitcoin

                      and the module should be cloned to your modules directory

                      then add the config entry into your config.js file, save the changes and try running your MagicMirror again.

                      (I don’t see any obvious typos for the MMM-Bitcoin entry in your config.js screenshot at the top, it looks like you edited it with nano just fine the first time).

                        @clarkcrew32 the bitcoin module has a problem.
                        it uses s library we stopped shipping 3 years ago.
                        but the author didn’t document its use.

                        so, in the module folder do
                        npm install request
