Config Options in the News Module

sdetweil

@edwardssj no problem. Hope it works for you.

The New York Times doesn’t allow it’s feed to be framed away from it’s parent site

@sdetweil It does but of course brings the story up into a full screen, I just have to find a way to bring the text only into the window.

Thank you for showing me the anatomy of the module.

@sdetweil I have broken something and I cannot see where

@edwardssj u could edit the code not to be full screen. Careful the article could be clipped at the iframe edge

sdetweil

@edwardssj what is that extra } after prohibited words?

Match the braces and brackets

edwardssj

@sdetweil Do I just remove it?

Coding is not my strong suit, I tried adding an extra module and got it very wrong

sdetweil

@edwardssj run npm run config:check from the MagicMirror folder.

Fix errors starting from the top.
Errors are usually reported on the line after the problem.

(Usually)

edwardssj

@sdetweil Fixed it by copying the lower portion of the sample file into the live file, will look at the differences later to see where I went wrong, thank you for your help.
