@Sean What about the first problem I had with the Google Maps Traffic Module not loading while the rest of the mirror started up? Is it because of where I placed it in the config file?

I even tried installing a stocks module by following a video of someone making their module and followed it to a tee but still didn’t get the module to work. It’s so frustrating!

zzaidi148

@cowboysdude My module still won’t work. The rest of modules are showing except for the google maps traffic. Any idea?

zzaidi148

@Bob OMG thank you so much. Ok, so I pasted your working code with the api keys and everything worked and it booted up except the google maps traffic module. I’m right now working in landscape mode if that helps. When I started the mirror, it said that there were no helpers found for google maps. don’t know whether I missed something in the install of the module.

@cowboysdude Very true. Thanks for the encouragement and help!

zzaidi148

@Mykle1 yes

@cowboysdude I tried with only one module and it failed

Hello all,
I’m a total noob to coding and magicmirror. I’ve got my mm working perfectly with the default modules. but for some reason when I add 3rd party modules, it all fails and says your config doesnt work. I download the module into MagicMirror/modules and not in default. I also added the config to config.js in every place imaginable and never got it to work. Please, if you can help, speel it out to me because I’m a total noob! My config is below. I tried it with many modules besides this google maps one that is at the bottom. The same result occured.
