        Ok … I am so sorry about that. It was not easy to understand.
        Let me try to explain … I need call a function which is declared into the config.js. However, this is impossible. Nothing appeared on the screen. I did not find any example using a function call. Is it clear ?

            As I’ve written in your other post, jQuery is not included as a default. You did a try to use jQuery($(document).ready())

              @sean Tks again … I am newb with MM, so I think that it is not possible to create a function in the config.js … I think that this will not work. because the next step I will need to call an api from config.js to get some data from mysql.
              In my test using a config.js out the MM system, I could call the api, but I think that this is not possible in the MM. Am I right ? Tks

                config.js is not for your custom job. leave it.
                When you want to do something your own, create module.
                Read the manual.

                • https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/blob/master/modules/README.md

                And see how other modules work;

                • https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/3rd-party-modules

                You can start by modifying any simple module as your wish.

                  one more thing;
                  config.js is validated when MM is booted up, not rendered. maybe you can put some codes in config.js but that would not be working as your expectation.
