Appears to have worked as far as enabling it is seeing it.

However it only show "loading dad joke..." and never updates.

Same problem for me. Solved it with the following approach. @echang15 you maybe should make a installation manual including the follwoing (solved my issue the least):

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone https://github.com/echang15/MMM-Dad-Jokes.git
cd MMM-Dad-Jokes 
npm install

// restart of magicMirror needed afterwards. If pm2 for autostart of magic mirror is used you can do as follows

cd ~ 
pm2 restart mm //or whatever your name for your autostart script is

@xKrummy thanks for the input, I take it by the non-response from the author that people are on their own for this one.

I ran into another issue (guess its a new common one), need to run the following command after running what xKrummy posted.

npm install request

Found it when running: pm2 logs mm 0|mm | WARNING! Could not load config file. Starting with default configuration. Error found: Error: Cannot find module 'request'

It now working wonderfully!

I recently attempted to install this module and ended up with a dependency problem. 

npm ERR! code ERESOLVE
npm ERR! ERESOLVE could not resolve
npm ERR!
npm ERR! While resolving: MMM-Dad-Jokes@1.0.0
npm ERR! Found: stylelint@14.16.1

npm ERR!     dev grunt-stylelint@"latest" from the root project

and so forth. It appears that the package.json is using obsolete packages in the devDependencies section. Solution: edit the package.json file to remove them, then install request and then npm install like normal. (for some odd reason, the --omit=dev flag doesn't work)

Since @echang15 doesn't respond I recommend using the fork from brucetony: https://github.com/brucetony/MMM-Dad-Jokes
