      @Sean That module is not showing up on the screen though. I put the code in the config file with the { } on either end. so will have to look into it further when I have time.

        Are you talking about MMM-JEOPARDY? I just checked it and it’s working normally. I did a minor fix at the same time so git pull in the MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Jeopardy directory for that update. The entire config.js entry for MMM-JEOPARDY is as follows:

        {
            module: 'MMM-JEOPARDY',
            position: 'top_left',                  // Works well anywhere
            config: { 
        	    useHeader: false,              // true if you want a header
                    header: "This is Jeopardy!",   // Any text you want
        	    maxWidth: "250px",             // Stretch or constrain according to region
        	    animationSpeed: 3000,          // New clue fades in and out
            }
        },
        

        Pay particular attention to the last } It has a comma after it

            Ok, weather won’t show without an API key, just so you know. The directions are in the readme for the module

                First, when you do post your code here, please post in a code block so that it is easier to read. My old eyes can’t look at that!

                Second, I don’t use the stock module. However, I did read recently that there was some problem with it. A forum search found this

                  @Mykle1 Thanks everyone, got it all together, got the New York Times feed at the bottom, interesting quotes in the middle. Time, date, calendar on left top. Weather top right. Now on to find a screen.
