How do I differentiate between the two different compliment purposes in the congif.js?

Do I use the “/n” to split them?

[sdetweil]

@smart_user two completely different setups

{
module: 'compliments',
position: 'middle',
 config:  {
     compliments:......
  }
},
{
  module:'compliments',
   position:'bottom',
    config:{
         compliments:.....
     }
}

[smart_user]

@sdetweil The display is showing an “undefined” with a line

[sdetweil]

@smart_user that is the module header, don’t know why

add

header: '',  

after position line on both

[smart_user]

@sdetweil after adding the header all I see is the line. The “undefined” is not there

[sdetweil]

@smart_user u did define the compliments data , right?

here is the default, if you remove the compliments: value completely from the config section
from https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/compliments.html#configuration-options

Default value:
config: {
	compliments: {
		anytime: [
			"Hey there sexy!"
		],
		morning: [
			"Good morning, handsome!",
			"Enjoy your day!",
			"How was your sleep?"
		],
		afternoon: [
			"Hello, beauty!",
			"You look sexy!",
			"Looking good today!"
		],
		evening: [
			"Wow, you look hot!",
			"You look nice!",
			"Hi, sexy!"
		],
		"....-01-01": [
			"Happy new year!"
		]
	}
}

[smart_user]

@sdetweil ummmmm I’m not sure? By that do you mean in the compliments.js?

[sdetweil]

@smart_user no… in config.js … NEVER edit the module source

		{
			disabled:false,
			module: "compliments",
			position: "middle"
		},
		{
			disabled:false,
			module: "compliments",
			position: "lower_third"
		},

[smart_user]

My config.js file:
{
module: “compliments”,
position: “lower_third”
},

{
module: “compliments”,
header: ‘’,
position: “middle”,

config:{
compliments: “Did you do the laundry?”
}

[sdetweil]

@smart_user the compliments thing in then module config block is an object

 compliments: { 


}

it chooses by time of day, so you need some of the time ranges… see the default in the doc

morning/afternoon/evening…

each of those is a list [] (array), even if only one entry

The compliments property contains an object with at least four arrays: morning, afternoon, evening and anytime

[smart_user]

These are what they already look like:

defaults: {
compliments: {
anytime: [“Make today worth it!”],
morning: [“Good morning!”, “Have a wonderful day”, “It’s your day today!”],
afternoon: [“You can do this”, “Take a small nap”, “Enjoy your meal”],
evening: [“Exercise time!”, “NO PAIN NO GAIN!”, “Well done for the day!”],
“…-01-01”: [“HAPPY NEW YEAR!”],
“…-12-25”: [“MERRY CHRISTMAS!”]

[sdetweil]

@smart_user but u edited the code.

the way to do this is to put that definition in config.js

[sdetweil]

@smart_user the way you are supposed to do it is in config.js

{
module: “compliments”,
position: “lower_third”
    config: { 
         compliments: {
           anytime: [“Make today worth it!”],
           morning: [“Good morning!”, “Have a wonderful day”, “It’s your day today!”],
           afternoon: [“You can do this”, “Take a small nap”, “Enjoy your meal”],
           evening: [“Exercise time!”, “NO PAIN NO GAIN!”, “Well done for the day!”],
           “…-01-01”: [“HAPPY NEW YEAR!”],
           “…-12-25”: [“MERRY CHRISTMAS!”]
       }
    }
},
{
module: “compliments”,
header: ‘’,
position: “middle”,

config:{
      compliments: {
         anytime: [“Make today worth it!”],
         morning: [“Good morning!”, “Have a wonderful day”, “It’s your day today!”],
         afternoon: [“You can do this”, “Take a small nap”, “Enjoy your meal”],
        evening: [“Exercise time!”, “NO PAIN NO GAIN!”, “Well done for the day!”],
        “…-01-01”: [“HAPPY NEW YEAR!”],
        “…-12-25”: [“MERRY CHRISTMAS!”]
       }
    }
}

and u leave the original code untouched. this way we can change the code, without impacting your configuration
