Position of module moves

[krazykraka]

I’ve been trying to position a module (compliments) better to gain more real estate on the screen. I was successfully able to move it in the custom.css file, but once the compliments module reaches the interval timer and updates to a new compliment, it moves back to the original position on the screen. I’m at a loss as to why this is happening. Can anybody point me or guide me as to why this is happening?

Thanks!

@krazykraka Why don’t you use position in config.js ?
Every time the module should be redrawn(via .getDom()), MagicMirror puts the DOM into the region container which is defined in your config.js.

So, if you want to hook this mechanism, You should modify your module not to be dependent on .getDom(), and you should draw and insert your DOM by yourself.

Ok gotcha. I’ll give that a try after work. Thanks!

@Sean It worked! Thanks! Time to continue on the other modules.
