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

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

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

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

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

          @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

            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!”]

              @smart_user but u edited the code.

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

                @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
