A Noob here......what are the install instructions

reflect23 commented 6 years ago

when you download the files, one will be the readme. You can nano README.md. It will give you the base module loading info to put in MagicMirror's config.js file.

Assuming you have git installed, go to the modules directory and run

git clone https://github.com/darickc/MMM-BackgroundSlideshow.git

Then it is easy to keep it up to date the files. If there are any changes you can run

git pull

Once it is installed you can do what refect23 suggested above and edit the config.js file (this is in the config directory). Don't forget to edit custom.css as instructed in the readme if the text is a little hard to read.

This is helpful! It might be a good idea to put in the project's main README -- I'm a noob too :D
