      @elaineezhu that all looks good… where is that config.js file located? it MUST be in the
      ~/MagicMirror/config folder

        @elaineezhu it looks to me like you may need to use quotes (“) around module name and position instead of apostrophe (‘). I can’t verify this makes a difference because I am not able to test it.

              @sdetweil yeah it’s in the config folder, but it still won’t run, as shown in the pictures attached 0_1577454252486_Screen Shot 2019-12-27 at 8.36.00 PM.png 0_1577454295032_Screen Shot 2019-12-27 at 8.44.41 PM.png 0_1577454310352_Screen Shot 2019-12-27 at 8.43.34 PM.png

              perhaps i’m rerunning magic mirror wrongly? if so, what’s the correct command line to run it?

                @elaineezhu i built a matching config and it works fine…

                if using pm2, then pm2 restart 0
                if not using pm2 then

                cd ~/MagicMirror
                npm start

                  @sdetweil hm, i’ve done that but the compliments displayed are still the default one, even after editing the code.

                    @elaineezhu can u do a pm2 status ?

                    even after editing the code.

                    what does that mean? config/config.js or modules/default/compliments/compliments.js?
