@sdetweil I am using my cell phone connected to my wifi network. When I scan the code it sends me to

http://raspberrypi:8080/modules/MMM-Config/review

When I replace “raspberrypi” with the actual ip of the pi, it works.

@sdetweil said in Are you tired of editing config.js, or have trouble doing it, see my new module:

notice the module name is MMM-Config
3 M’s

:man_facepalming:
There it is. I knew it would come down to something simple! I still can’t get to the form page by scanning the QR code, but I’m ok with that for now because I can access it via browser!

Thank you so much!

@sdetweil Ok here’s where I am. I think I’ve made the proper changes in the config file.
Changed address to 0.0.0.0
Changed ipWhitelist to []
Added showQR: “true”

The QR code is showing up in the top right of the magic mirror.

When I try to navigate to
http://192.168.2.13:8080/modules/MM-Config/review
all I get is “Cannot GET /modules/MM-Config/review”

If it helps, this is the terminal output at startup:

I apologize if I’m being difficult. I was just getting very frustrated trying to manually configure modules, and when I stumbled across your module, I got excited! I feel like I’m overlooking something simple!:grimacing_face:

@sdetweil I did have showQR set to true in the module config, but the QR code wasn’s showing up.

After changing the address in the mm config from localhost to 0.0.0.0 the QR code is now appearing on the magic mirror.

Now when I try to access the form from my pc I get “This device is not allowed to access your mirror.
Please check your config.js or config.js.sample to change this.”
and the terminal on the pi says “Access denied to IP address: 192.168.2.5”

I tried to add it to the ipWhitelist, but I don’t think I have the proper format because it’s not working?

Module entry is:

modules: [
               {
                       module:"MMM-Config",
                       position:"top_right",  // the QR code (if requested) will appear here
                       config:{

               }
               },
               {
                       module: "alert",
               },
               {
                       module: "updatenotification",
                       position: "top_bar"
               },
               {
                       module: "clock",
                       position: "top_left"
               },
               {
                       module: "calendar",
                       header: "US Holidays",
                       position: "top_left",
                       config: {
                               calendars: [
                                       {
                                               symbol: "calendar-check",
                                               url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics"
                                       }
                               ]
                       }

etc

This is how I tried to whitelist my computers ip

    ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1","192.168.2.5"],    // Set [] to allow all IP addresses

I appreciate your help very much!

Is there any way you could break down the setup even more for dummies like myself? I can’t seem to access the configuration form in browser. Do I have to use a browser on the raspberry pi? Can it be a computer on my local network? When I try to access http://192.168.2.13:8300/modules/MMM-Config/review from my PC all I get is “Cannot GET /modules/MMM-Config/review”
Same with
http://localhost:8300/modules/MMM-Config/review
from the pi itself
What am I doing wrong?
