      So. now your config entry should look like this:

      {
      	module: "currentweather",
      	position: "top_right",
      	config: {
      		location: "", // This can be empty. Leave it as is
      		locationID: "2639577",  // inside the quotes
      		appid: "YOUR API KEY GOES HERE",  // inside the quotes
      	}
      },

      Create a working config

            @Mykle1 well I’ve done all you said, entered the locationID and put in the API KEY an it looks exactly like your code. I went to save it and the screen on my main screen where the mirror displayed the time, date and more just went blank.

                  No, but you can post that too. I mean copy and paste the output from your terminal window after you’ve tried to run the mirror

                    @Mykle1 ok I just thought it was a case of save the config.js and it would come up.
                    I’ll do that now

                      Yes, save the config, but then restart your MM

                        @Mykle1 Oh wow it’s working! :-) The time in the top right above the weather bit says 7.02am where the actual correct time on the left of the screen is 1.04am. Thanks I’m well pleased, its a start.
