      Hello,
      I have tried to create a new module in MM, for that I have copied helloworld module from “modules/defauls/helloworld” to “modules/Titus”,

      I just renamed to ‘Titus’ as a module.

      Then I changed the config.js file for a new Titus module.

      I am getting black screen now for the Titus module, but just work fine for helloworld.
      Why ?, any dependencies ?
      Can any one please help me on this ?

      I’m very new to this (MMM)

      //Worked
      /*
      {
      module: 'helloworld',
      position: 'middle_center',
      header: 'helloworld module',
      config: {
      text: 'I'm helloworld module'
      } // closes config
      }, // closes module helloworld
      */
      
      //Not worked
      {
      module: 'Titus',
      position: 'middle_center',
      header: 'Titus module',
      config: {
      text: 'I'm Titus module'
      }
      },
      

      Regards,
      Titus S.

        So you created a copy of the helloworld module and moved it to modules/Titus?
        Then you renamed helloworld.js to Titus.js?
        Did you modify Titus.js and changed this line
        javascript Module.register("helloworld",{
        to
        javascript Module.register("Titus",{
        to tell MagicMirror there is a new module called Titus?

          Yes, I did like that only.

          Changed to like below.
          javascript Module.register(“Titus”,{

          Anything I want to do ?

            I found the problem.
            Initially I named module as “Titus” and have javscript as “titus.js”.

            I renamed like below and it worked.
            “titus.js” to “Titus.js”

                        {
                                module: 'Titus',
                                position: 'middle_center',
                                header: 'Titus module',
                                config: {
                                        text: 'Glory to God, Jesus and Holyspirit, all the time'
                                }
                        },
            

            Thank you.

            Regards,
            Titus S.
