      Just post your config.js file content and let others see what might be missing.
      Please tab indent your file content before posting or use proper markup so the code is readable

          Not sure if this is the problem but the position for module WorldTides should be top_right and not top-right

          That btw is my fault, a stupid typo in the readme :(

                Is it due to not pasting the code like this

                modules: [
                {
                module: ‘MMM-WorldTides’,
                position: ‘top-right’,
                config: {
                longitude: ‘’, //longitude and latitude need to be written with . instead of ,
                latitude: ‘’,
                appid: ‘’ //appid needs to be requested from worldtides.info
                }
                }

                        I think the error is that the line

                        		module: 'alert',
                        

                        has a trailing comma, it should read

                        		module: 'alert'
