Adding a second news feed.

ChrisEW

Hi folks:

Complete newbie here.

I am really weak on coding, but the other day I did manage to add a second feed on my bottom bar. It was nice, because they alternated every few seconds.

{ and }.

I’ve used npm run config:check but am getting nowhere. I am currently running OK with the single news feed.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks so much. A simple comma was missing, who knew?.

@rijosroberto might be an error…

alt-spacebar, n to minimize the mirror screen and see the console log in the terminal window where u did npm start (this will show the debug/errors from the node_helpers)…

and/or ctrl-shift-i (letter i) to open the debug console, select the console tab
(this will show the debug from the modules)
