      (Resubmitted to remove personal info) I’m probably just an idiot, but I can’t figure out what my syntax error is here. Does someone else see it?

        Since there isn’t yet so much “customized” stuff in there, i would suggest, you start again with the dummy file provided in the /config folder.

        Then add the first module, if this is working then, add the second… and so on.
        Otherwise you will go crazy.

          Your problems are with the compliments module. You are missing a comma after position: "lower_third" and another comma after "It was such a great day!" in the evening array.
