@stuartiannaylor tried adding my router info but not successful

Startx did it. What do I have to do to prevent that in the future? I know I missed something to prevent auto login

Ok Ive tried the googler machine to find an answer with no luck. Apparently I missed something in my initial set up. I restarted my pi and am stuck and cant get to the desktop. I’ve tried the pm2 commands and anything else I can find. Sooo how do I get past this and back to the desktop and what do I need to do so that this doesn’t happen when I shut it down to finally build it into my frame etc.

I took pics of what I am getting and tried.

Cheers. I owe y’all some beers for the help

hmmm stuck. I get the create a config screen Heres what I have

var config = {
	address: "0.0.0.0", // Address to listen on, can be:
	                      // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
	                      // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
	                      // - "", "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
	                      // Default, when address config is left out, is "localhost"
	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: [], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
	                                                       // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
	                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
	                                                       // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
	                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/28"],

then on my config

		 {
	        module: 'MMM-Remote-Control'
	        // uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
	        // , position: 'bottom_left'
	        // you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself
	        config: {
	            apiKey: ''
	        }
    },

thanks for helping the clueless rookie

All I get is Hello Universe

{
		    module: 'MMM-NASA',
		    position: 'bottom_right',
		    config: {
			search: "Galaxies",                 
			infoLength: 400,                  
		        scroll: "yes",                    
			rotateInterval: 60,  
			useHeader: false,
			header: "",
			maxWidth: "300px",               
			animationSpeed: 3000,            
		    }
		},

ive tried playing with the intervals with no luck either

@j-e-f-f yep. Thanks. Just lots of trial and error but it was set up how I wanted.

@sdetweil I use VNC viewer pretty much all of the time to access this and nothing happens. I do see the green light occasionally flash on the pi when I try with the keyboard hooked up to it & my tv.

Thanks I’ll try in the morning. If I can somehow get to config.js I’ll undo what I did. Appreciate all of your help!

@sdetweil I can’t get to terminal. All I have is black screen with pointer on it. I’m sure it was when I copied a config

i have a black screen too. Just got dark sky working. was finally happy and while rebooting after installing another module it goes to black. I thought it was my pi (3b) so I tried my other pi 3b+ and just black. I noticed earlier what looked like a draining battery icon but have no clue what that could mean. I do have a cursor on my black screen. alt tab shows Electon but I cant do anything from there. Help

@sdetweil thanks. I finally got this module the way I wanted. On to the next one!

Ive got it up but when I change “table” to “tiled” I get a config error when I restart.

When I add units: us I get an error. Ugh.

This works```
//your cod {
module: “MMM-DarkSkyForecast”,
header: “Weather”,
position: “top_right”,
classes: “default everyone”,
disabled: false,
config: {
apikey: “*********”,
latitude: “38.751389”,
longitude: “-90.565948”,
iconset: “4c”,
concise: true,
forecastLayout: “table”
}
},e here

this doesnt 

{
module: “MMM-DarkSkyForecast”,
header: “Weather”,
position: “top_right”,
classes: “default everyone”,
disabled: false,
config: {
apikey: “*******”,
latitude: “38.751389”,
longitude: “-90.565948”,
iconset: “4c”,
concise: true,
units: us,
forecastLayout: “table”
}
},

@j-e-f-f thats what I thought. Im just having all sorts of weird issues with both weather modules. I may just need to redo them

@sdetweil ok I am so confused. I took an existing list of compliments and saved/edited it. I then saved it as a .json file (or so I thought) . I went to the default modules folder and changed remote folder from null to that web address.

I thought that was the way to go about it. Never created anything in github before. so Im grasping at straws

I went out and found https://gist.github.com/ryck/e28a69665b8839f6e9a7acd6b4acc97d (which is awesome)

I modified and removed what I didn’t want, but I left the weather stuff in even though I haven’t configured the default weather module.

I then created https://github.com/motdog/compliments/blob/master/compliments.json

I went into compliments.js and at remote file removed null and added that link followed by a comma.

It didn’t run when I restarted my mirror. Do I need to change anything on main config.

Module.register("compliments", {

	// Module config defaults.
	defaults: {
		compliments: {
			anytime: [
				"Hey there sexy!"
			],
			morning: [
				"Good morning, handsome!",
				"Enjoy your day!",
				"How was your sleep?"
			],
			afternoon: [
				"Hello, beauty!",
				"You look sexy!",
				"Looking good today!"
			],
			evening: [
				"Wow, you look hot!",
				"You look nice!",
				"Hi, sexy!"
			]
		},
		updateInterval: 30000,
		remoteFile: https://github.com/motdog/compliments/blob/master/compliments.json,
		fadeSpeed: 4000,
		morningStartTime: 3,
		morningEndTime: 12,
		afternoonStartTime: 12,
		afternoonEndTime: 17
	},

Thanks for the help

@sdetweil I tried that & could not get dark sky to show up at all. That’s why I am confused

dumb question I’m sure but when placing this in the config.js I should get rid of the default weather program, right?

Still hosed…

no I don’t ugh. cant figure out what I am missing. Here is compliment config and main config. I went back to the original compliment config thinking once I got that straight I could slowly add to it. NOPE.

Compliments

Module.register("compliments", {

	// Module config defaults.
       config:  {
		compliments: {
			anytime: [
			"Hey there sexy!"
		],
