EUREKA!
The error message at start was bothering me. Figured it out with some playing around. needed a ‘}’ at 195. Problem solved.
Thanks for ya’lls help. I’ll more than likely pester you again with more issues. Have your crayons ready!

@sdetweil I’ve proofed all I can. I don’t see anymore syntax errors. Still won’t run properly. Here’s the config:check ```
pi@WALL-e:~/MagicMirror $ npm run config:check
magicmirror@2.12.0 config:check /home/pi/MagicMirror
node js/check_config.js

Okay! It’s coming together for me. I’m catching a couple more syntax errors. I’ll keep proofing to see if I catch more.
@Mykle1 Here’s the code. Figured this seemed like a popular spot to wet my feet. If I could get through this, I could set the rest up.

While ya’ll are looking at that, I’ll check the troubleshooting section. Thanks
@sdetweil Stand by, ya’ll. I’m proofing now. Just caught a misplaced comma.
Oh, great! Another noob needs help configuring the Compliments module. I’ve sussed through this for two days trying to get this up and running to earn ‘cool dad points.’ I’ve followed along and made changes to the config.js file as described. When I run ‘npm start’ I get the following: ```

What am I looking at? And how can I correct? Bear with a middle aged noob. You might have to explain this in crayon. Thanks for the help.
