      Yeah, I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out where I was missing something… Generally it was a missing comma at the end of a config line which had additional content following it or misplacing the { or }.
      Also, the modules are loaded in order as they appear in the config so if you want a couple of things in the top left (denoted by the location parameter “position”: “top_left”, the first module will be the top left and the second module read would be just below that.

        I have it working now after adding the extra bracket, but as stated above its’ a little big for portrait mode…it’s running a bit sluggish but i expect thats more of a raspberry pi issue…changing the font % in custom.css didnt seem to shrink it any for me

          My Apologies for the issues you are having, but, I am looking over the code to make these fixes and I am not seeing any of the problems you are describing…

          Any way you could show me the specific places these errors are occurring?

          I ran it through an error checker and it’s not finding any errors…

            @justjim1220 My apologies to you! The module is working just fine for me now…took a little tinkering but I got it.

            The only issue I’m having now is re-sizing and maybe getting it to run a little smoother (again that might be a limitation of the Pi) Can’t seem to get a full headline in before it switches…but I’ll mess around with it

            Great module…thanks for your work

                Thanks!
                Glad you like it.

                What did you have to tinker with to get it working?

                  @mykle1 I have a Synology NAS running Docker…I really need to learn how to install this all in a docker package and edit it and run it from the Server…

                    @justjim1220 Literally I was just missing a } after copying and pasting somehow…

                      Add this to custom.css, Make the changes you want in it…

                      .MMM-NewsFeedTicker {
                          height: 100px;
                          background-color: maroon;
                          opacity: 1.0;
                      }
                      
                      .MMM-NewsFeedTicker .headline {
                          padding-top: 15px;
                          font-size: 100%;
                      }
                      
                      .MMM-NewsFeedTicker .image {
                        height: 100px;
                        background-color: #FFF;
                      }
                      

                      Let me know if you have any problems with this.

                      I am glad that you like it! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

                      I added the lines to the custom.css and adjusted as follows. I still see the scrolling text as full size / cut off (screenshot of section included…

                      .MMM-NewsFeedTicker {
                          height: 50px;
                          background-color: maroon;
                          opacity: 0.5;
                      }
                      
                      .MMM-NewsFeedTicker .headline {
                          padding-top: 15px;
                          font-size: 50%;
                      }
                      
                      .MMM-NewsFeedTicker .image {
                        height: 50px;
                        background-color: #FFF;
                      }

                        Th example config on your git page is missing a trailing ‘}’ This is why people have had issues adding to their config.js
