Er, this error message is from MMM-Swipe, not MMM-pages. Consider opening an issue with them?

[robudus]

O sorry you are right

[robudus]

MMM-Swipe has read-only repo (issues)

[edward-shen]

If that's the case then you're out of luck. The author isn't supporting the module anymore. Your best bet if you still want to use it probably to ask on the MagicMirror forums.
