        Not sure what you mean here. Yes, you can have many modules running at the same time. Didn’t you start out with a clock, and a calendar, and a newsfeed, all at the same time?

        Ah, there’s my confusion…i thought the magic mirror (date, weather, calendar etc) was one module. :-))
        I was wondering if it is possible to have the magic mirror 2 running on the screen with Alexa ‘asleep’ in the background to be woken with a ‘wake’ word and say, a music app playing etc.

        Yes, the WunderGround is the one i was looking at…very nice.

        Heeds battered…how do i use the wunderground module ??? i have opened the magic mirror config js file i have copied and pasted the block of code (using git clone etc) but it comes up with an error telling me to ‘Please create a config file’ ??? (tried the 3 back-tick rule for code, but this is how it came out)

        	port: 8080,
        	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses.
        
        	language: "en",
        	timeFormat: 24,
        	units: "metric",
        modules: [
        {
            module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
            position: 'top_right',
            config: {
                apikey: 'my api i.d. here', // private; don't share!
                pws: 'pws:DH9 6PA', //England
                hourly: '1',
                fctext: '1',
                fcdaycount: "5",
                fcdaystart: "0",
                hourlyinterval: "3",
                hourlycount: "2",
                alerttime: 10000,
                alerttruncatestring: "english:",
        	roundTmpDecs: 1,
        	UseCardinals: 0,

        	sysstat: 0
            }
        };
        ]
        	modules: [
        		{
        			module: "alert",
        		},
        		{
        			module: "updatenotification",
        			position: "top_bar"```

          ‘top_right’

          Well my guess would be that you copied the config from one place to another … replace all of these ` [backtick] with this ’ [single quote]

          Then retry ;)

            how do i use the wunderground module ???

            Well, the instructions should be in the README file that came with the module. At this point, you should be making entries without a problem. :-)

            I can tell you that the pws: 'pws:DH9 6PA', you are using is no good. I just tried it in mine, with and without the space, which drew my attention.

            So, try this when posting code with back-ticks:

            Put 3 backticks on a new line and Enter

            Post your code under the backticks and Enter

            Put 3 backticks on a new line and Enter

            And, just in case, NO backticks in your config.js file

              You could start a new topic on Alexa, or do a search here on the forum. Other people have integrated Alexa with their mirrors. I have never used it so I won’t be able to help you with that.

                No, the backticks I added to try and display the code in my message correctly, obviously didn’t work 😊😊😊.
