      Thanks! It worked but that was copied and pasted from GitHub. May want to make the change.

        Also, is there a way to add multiple count downs to the one module or do you duplicate the module with every countdown?

          @bminer1 nice catch, the example was wrong, somehow I missed that!
          (it’s correct in the Configuration list however)

          Multiple instances in the config is the way to go at the moment,

              I did it by myself, thank you anyway for the great module.

                Hi all,
                Bringing an old thread back up, just installed and got this module activated. I think I’ve done it correctly as per github but its not working. It just displays the ‘finished’ message the death and despair bit.

                Can anyone tell me what silly obvious thing I’ve done wrong? Config in the pic below
                Thanks

                  try removing the comma at the end of the ‘toWhat’ line

                    Your config looks fine. I just installed and ran the module without a problem, duplicating your config entry. Are you sure you saved the config after having made the entry or that you are not working a second config? I’ve done that plenty of times.

                    Here is a screenshot of the module working with your config

                    0_1530578697604_22.png

                    {
                        module: 'MMM-doomsDay',
                        position: 'bottom_center', // This can be any of the regions, best results in center regions
                        config: {
                            doomsDay: "2019-07-22 24:00:00", // YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS, Do not alter the time, just the date
                            toWhat: "Leaving for the USA!",
                            
                            // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
                        }
                    },
                    

                    If it continues to give you trouble, you could try https://github.com/mykle1/MMM-EventHorizon which does basically the same thing, with a few more options, as well as a working countdown timer.

                      Thanks guys, very weird. The config is exactly as you have copied straight from github. I’ll give Event Horizon a shot.
                      Thanks
