      I’ve never seen the default alert module show anything and just wondering if its working. The documentation supposedly says it shows a default message on startup but I don’t see it?

      My config.js just has the module name as shown in the example config.

        @clumsy_ninja Have look at the documentation: You need to set welcome_message in the config (a string).

          The documentation says it has a default value so I didn’t enter one. I manually entered a startup message and it showed so all good. Thanks.

          @MichMich Is this a documentation error that should be corrected? or not working properly?

            @clumsy_ninja Yup documentation is wrong there, the default is false. Edit: made a PR to correct this.
