@joeytuck Okay, so I deleted the MMM-Traffic folder and files that I had and did a new git clone and npm install for a fresh start. It works!! I’m sure I’m at fault for doing something stupid within the MMM-Traffic config file like changing a comma or something. Really happy about this one and I am very thankful for everyones help! I’ve learned quite a bit more about this than I thought I would need to. Onto wunderground!

@Mykle1 This might sound really ignorant but do I actually need PWS equipment to run this module? Can I not just receive and not transmit? My PWS is KTNMADIS13

Has anyone run into the issue where you´ve installed MMM-WunderGround with your api key and pws and it just says
¨loading¨ on the magic mirror screen? -

@joeytuck Tried a new API key and still no luck. Moved the module to a different portion of the config file just to see if there was somehow a limit on the amount of allowed modules that I haven’t been able to find. Still nothing.

RE: Help... I need help installing 3rd party modules to Magic Mirror 2
I removed all the forward // text not required for the code and MMM-Traffic still won’t populate on my mirror. Is there any code that limits it to only the factory module placement?

I’ve noticed that my quotation marks are a different font and wondered if that would be an issue? If I copy the quotation marks on the config file and use those in place of the ones that I key on my keyboard it works. I got the program to run but it’s not reflecting the addition of the module even though in the script it says that it’s installing and helpers are installing. As far as the Dr, vs. Drive that was in the addresses that I input. When doing for example Cherry Drive it gave me a config error. But Cherry Dr did not.

Fixed the config errors. Turns out that if you put Drive, instead of Dr, it won’t recognize it. Unfortunately, now Magic Mirror is starting normally but I don’t see the MMM-Traffic module being displayed. I’ve tried multiple screen positions and nothing.

Also, do I need to do anything to the MMM-Traffic.js file defaults like adding the api_key or changing values to match my selections on the config.js file? It seems like it’s really easy when I read the readme files and I’m looking forward to that being the case. Any help in taking a step in the right direction would be much appreciated.
