3rd party Module Image Slideshow options Configuration Help

paddyhughes

Hi All,

I am loving the MagicMirror. I just need some help with 2 things if you can.

first up is when i got to a 3rd party Module i the config looks like this

modules: [
	{
		module: 'MMM-ImageSlideshow',
		position: 'bottom_left',
		config: {
			imagePaths: ['modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/example1']
		}
	}	
]

For me to get it to work i need to edit it to look like this

{
              module: "MMM-ImageSlideshow",
              position: "top_right",
                            config: {
              imagePaths: ["modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages"],
              }
              },

Should i be leaving the ```
modules: [
]


Second Question 
In the Configuration options of the add on [ImageSlideshow](https://github.com/AdamMoses-GitHub/MMM-ImageSlideshow)
there are options  ```
fixedImageHeight

were do i put it in the code and were do i place the number value

Here my Config file

No.

Add config options according to the readme. Here is how you would add fixedImageHeight

 {
               module: "MMM-ImageSlideshow",
               position: "top_right",
               config: {
                  imagePaths: ["modules/MMM-ImageSlideshow/exampleImages"],
                    fixedImageHeight: 300,
              }
             },
