      @sdetweil It still isn’t working. I had configured for the alert to show up in 10 seconds but it didn’t

        @smart_user you changed the 15000 in node_helper to 10000, right?

        And u had a position: set in config.js, right?

            @sdetweil Is it possible for you to send me a picture of the .js file so I can double check?

              @smart_user u can look on the github site

              View code. Then click on file.

              If you used git clone, then u can do

              git diff node_helper.js
              to see the differences

                  @smart_user show me the config block. Minimum is this. MUST have a position

                  {
                       module:"SampleModule",
                       position:"middle",
                   },

                    euh … position needed ONLY if you have to show something on the mirror (getDom).
                    If you have nothing to show THEN position is not needed

                    Note: verified in my lasted module (position is not needed because no visual)

                        @sdetweil Yes! I missed adding the position to the config file. Just have another clarification. Can these messages show up for a few seconds then disappear and then appear again after 30 minutes? If so, how do I do that?
