  • RE: Certain Modules Making Screen Blank

    I redid everything and followed the step-by-step tutorial in the forum, and it all works perfectly now! Thanks so much for your help!

    Oh, awesome thank you. I wasn’t too sure whether to use custom.css or main.css - obviously I made the wrong choice haha. Thank you for the advice :)

    @cowboysdude What’s annoying me the most is the fact that I haven’t altered anything major in the code - it’s pretty much all as downloaded. The only thing I’ve changed is main.css, when I changed the background from black to a picture.

    Thank you for taking a look at it and giving me advice - I think I’m just going to start over and hope for the best. Thanks for your time!

  • RE: Certain Modules Making Screen Blank

    This has been driving me crazy for a couple of days now - if we can’t find a solution, would it be worth me starting over? As in, completely re-formatting my SD card, reinstalling Magic Mirror and all? I may not have formatted my SD card correctly the first time, which is making me wonder if that’s the issue.

    I’m only a few days into doing this, so it wouldn’t be that big a deal if it were likely to fix it.

    @cowboysdude I’ve done that, but it’s still doing the same thing.

    @cowboysdude Yeah, as far as I can tell everything went fine.

    @cowboysdude I believe so? I downloaded Magic Mirror 3 days ago, so I’m assuming I’m running the latest version.

  • RE: Certain Modules Making Screen Blank

    @cowboysdude That’s the way I originally did it - I added them one at a time. Even individually, they still made the same thing happen. Thanks for letting me know about the Todoist one, though - I’ll have to take a closer look at it, or more likely just take it out entirely.

    I even went as far as to add the default calender code from the original config.js.sample file instead of my own - but that made the same thing happen too. Could it be something to do with the module coding? Or the way it’s trying to access the information from the internet?

  • Certain Modules Making Screen Blank

    I’m really new to Raspberry Pi/Linux/90% of the code used here, so this is likely to be a dumb, easy fix (at least, I really hope so since it’s been driving me crazy!).

    I’m able to get the clock, currentweather and weatherforecast modules working perfectly. However, when I attempt to add any other modules (calendar, newsfeed, even some additional downloaded ones such as MMM-Todoist and MMM-RottenTomatoes) the screen appears completely blank.

    I’m planning on using this as an info screen type thing, rather than a mirror, so I have a background image which still appears like normal when this happens; all that happens is that no modules appear. Can anyone help with this? I’ll include my config.js code below; everything after weatherforecast is the stuff that doesn’t work - I’ve also removed all of my info.
