sample config and clock

[emos]

Hello, I came a cross a topic on this forum saying that all you need to remove the second from the clock is

config: { 
displaySeconds: false, 
}

I stared out with the sample.config, added the info for seconds. When i start up the mirror now it just says i need to create a config. wtf?

This is the full config

@emos you forgot an , behind the position

{
  module: 'clock',
  position: 'top_left',
  config: {
    displaySeconds: false
  }
}

@strawberry-3.141
Thank you, it did the trick :)

I see that you have removed the ‘,’ behind ‘false’. The last argument, or string, is that the only one that’s not suppose to have an ‘,’ at the end?

[strawberry 3.141]

@emos that’s correct it’s like writing a list you seperate them by comma except the last item

[emos]

@strawberry-3.141 Thank you so much, that helped me alot :thumbsup:

[emos]

one more question regarding the last ‘,’

Does the same rule apply with the ‘[’ and ‘]’?

                {
                        module: 'compliments',
                        position: 'lower_third',
                        config: {
                                compliments: {
                                        day_sunny: [
                                                'Today is a sunny day',
                                                'It\'s a beautiful day',
                                                ],
                                        snow: [
                                                'Snowball battle!',
                                                ],
                                        rain: [
                                                'Don\'t forget your umbrella'
                                                ]
                                        }
                                }
                },

Or does each square bracket count as individual values. So if there’s only one you don’t need to close it?

[strawberry 3.141]

@emos you have to seperate each level with commas things day_sunny, snow, rain has to be seperated with commas

thats what inside the square brackets has to be seperated by commasas well
