Thank you for the help

Mykle1

You’re welcome. If you have trouble adding one module, by all means, come back here and ask for help. Troubleshooting the addition of one module is a whole lot easier than troubleshooting your entire config. So, start with the default config and try adding a single module. Keep me posted

Thank you, I’ll try that. I’m honestly in over my head i believe, but I’m gonna keep working on it.

We all were in the beginning…hang in there it’ll get easier for you :)

In your config fil are missing a lot of , and ]
check this

BKeyport

One of the best commands to know is

 npm run config:check

Start at the topmost error and work your way down the file - it’s got lots of problems, but is easily fixed. Also, I highly recommend a graphical type editor if possible - Geany is what I use.

I installed samba on my magic mirror so I can edit with the PC version of Geany and save it right to the Pi. It’s great.

You missed some ,, some ] and some }
Oh, and you should never post your apikeys or links to personal calendars. I truncated both for you

@yawns thank you for doing that, I’m very new to this, what else do i need to do to the above config file you posted

antkaf

Give this a try. A handy tool
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check
hope its sorted

dcarls91

Just wanted to say thanks again for all of the help. I have spent the last couple of days trying to figure this out to no avail. I have decided to scrap the project for now until I can figure out what I am doing because I clearly do not have a clue.
