<![CDATA[MMM-ImagesPhotos]]>Hey everyone! I’m having a bit of trouble with the MMM-ImagesPhotos module. I keep getting this error:

No MagicMirror/modules/MMM-ImagesPhotos/MMM-ImagesPhotos.js found for module: MMM-ImagesPhotos.

and then

No helper found for module: MMM-ImagesPhotos.

However, I’ve made sure that the js file is inside that module and even installed and uninstalled it a few times. It’s still not working - the rest of my modules are loading but this one isn’t :(

I just started working on my first MagicMirror yesterday so would really appreciate some help.

Thanks everyone!

Thank you for all of your help @sdetweil!!

Same person is logged in now - I’m the only person using this raspberry pi. And I never used sudo - I followed the instructions in the readme.

ls -laF

inside the MMM-ImagesPhotos folder
who is logged on now, vs when you did the git clone?

never use sudo right?

I used the sample config from the readme, and then when that didn’t work, just various different ones that changed like the opacity and fill. However, I think the problem might be coming from here since I’m getting this error every time I run it with npm -

[2025-07-26 08:56:04.585] [WARN] No /home/starz/MagicMirror/modules/MMM‑ImagesPhotos/MMM‑ImagesPhotos.js found for module: MMM‑ImagesPhotos.

But of course, there is a JS file inside the module - it just seems like its not being read. It’s pretty confounding because all of my other modules work perfectly fine.

and do

ls -laF

and show the results

I’m sure I did the git clone correctly, and I just removed and redid everything to make sure. It’s still not working and showing the same error.

while the current directory was
~/MagicMirror/modules
right?

the module folder name MUST MATCH the module name exactly, case matters
