        @videogame95 sorry, I missed your question

        https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/customcss.html#target-a-specific-module

        .modulename .... { 
        .....
        }
        

        like

        .clock { 
        ...
        }
        

        applies to the stuff in the clock module output

        the .modulename … before the { is called the css selector clause… it ‘selects’ the elements the data inside the {} will apply to

        I use this to remind me of the things that can go there …
        https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.php

        here is a clause in my MMM-Config module form to hide a useless element I have no control over

        .possibly-hidden-tab div:nth-child(2)  > div > div >div >ul >li:only-child >a[rel*="Item 1"] {
          display: none;
        }
        

        the selector clause ALWAYS selects ALL elements in the document that match the selector… SO .modulename prefix means u only mess up your stuff!

          @sdetweil - Thanks! I will clean up my code some, when I get a chance. I appreciate the input.

            @sdetweil – BTW, it this also true for all modules? That is, also for non-default modules? [Somehow I had internalized that even if default modules could be addressed this way, others required something like the following]:

            .module.MMM-WeatherAlerts header {text-align: left;
            }
            .module.MMM-WeatherAlerts {  background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.2); 
            }

              @JohnGalt its the same for all modules…

              .clock
              .calendar
              .MMM-Config
              whatever

              when MM puts the content in a section it adds a class (.modulename) to that block of content

                  @JohnGalt here is a copy out of some of the content for a weather module

                  <div class="container" style="display: block;">
                       <div id="module_5_weather" class="module weather weather">
                           <header class="module-header" style="display: none;"></header>
                             <div class="module-content">
                                 // module content would go here
                                <div class="dimmed light small"> Cargando … </div>
                            </div>
                      </div>
                  </div>
                  

                  on this line

                  <div id="module_5_weather" class="module weather weather">
                  

                  you have the modulename as a class
                  and the id “module_5_weather”
                  as the selectable elements to target the content inside
                  module_5 is the count of modules top down starting at 0
                  good if u had multiple instances of a module and wanted to target different ones for different styles

                    @sdetweil - Thanks Sam. This will help when I work on cleaning up my display overall, as i do have multiple instances of both calendar and weather running!
