      I have been trying to change the timezone on the clock module for days. I don’t understand why when I add the config lines it bricks MM. Can someone help me out?

       module: "clock",
              position: "top_left",   // This can be any of the regions.
              config: {
                   timezone: 'America/New_York'
      }

        @Treestanx you’re missing some parts ;) Rule of thumb… you need to have equal { }
        so for every { you need one of }… You’re missing two ;) One at the start and one at the end.

                       {
        		module: 'clock',
        			position: 'top_left',
        			config: {
        				displaySeconds: false,
        				timezone: "America/New_York",
        		                     }
        	      },

          I will try to help you.

                      {
          		module: 'MMM-Globe',
          		position: 'bottom_center',
          		config: {
          		style: 'natColor',
          		imageSize: 200,
          		ownImagePath:'',
          		updateInterval: 10*60*1000
          	}
          	},
          	{
          		module: 'clock',
          		timezone: 'America/New_York',
          		position: 'top_center'
          	},
          	{
          		module: 'calendar',
          

          Here is the clock portion of my config.js file between 2 other modules. Notice how the module before clock ends with },
          The clock module should also end with }, as you can see from mine.

          From what I’ve learned here, every { needs to have a corresponding } somewhere afterwards in the modules config.
          AND, the last } in that modules config needs to have a comma after it. See the module above clock? It has 2 { and
          2 corresponding } the last } having a comma afterwards.

          I hope this helps. I’ve given some faulty advice before but I’d like to think I’ve helped a few people.

            You beat me to it, bro. There was no answer when I started and then when I posted, it showed you already made it to the finish line. :thumbsup:

              Why is timezone: in config in one example and in the other its under module?
