      I’d love to display an English word of the day from someone like Merriam Webster.

      I’ve poked around and seen reference to “yet another WotD module” and even found some older modules that use Merriam Webster, so this isn’t a new idea. But I haven’t found something that is recent and popular — maybe I’m missing something obvious.

      Know of a good one?

            @mumblebaj, is there a way to resize your WOTD module?

            I would like to put it in the bottom bar centre across the entire screen and large enough to be seen from a distance.

            I notice there isn’t a css file, would this be the only way to do it?

              @brentmatthews Hi, yes, I did not require a css file for the module. You are welcome to add and submit a pr if you like.

                @mumblebaj thank you. I have very little experience in actually creating a css, let alone doing a pull request.

                I’ll have to do some research and see if I can work it out.

                    @sdetweil Thank you. I had seen that in passing when first on this forum, but certainly have a bit more understanding on that post now so I shall utilise it as best I can.

                        @sdetweil I just found the scaling code for css and did it that way with a few position adjustments. Going to play with the fonts a little to maybe make it a touch cleaner looking and not all bold. Photo included.

                        Still playing around with the weather module at the top to get it exactly how I want it also. This css is fun.
