      In my config.js I have timeformat set at 12.

      The calendar times are in 12 format but the actual clock is showing 24. I’ve went into dev to see if there is a problem but nothing was showed. I overwrote the config.js from sample, change to 12 and imperial. Although the imperial always changes, the clock stays at 24.

      I’ve looked in the clock module but I do not see anything that I could change.

        @louise by default the clock uses the value up top for time format

        var config = {
            address: "0.0.0.0",
            port: 8090,
            basePath: "/",
            language: "en",
            locale: "en-US",
            logLevel: [
              "INFO",
              "LOG",
              "WARN",
              "ERROR",
              //"DEBUG"
            ],
            timeFormat: 24,    // <------ this value 
            units: "metric",
            useHttps: false,
            ipWhitelist: [],
        

        I just changed mine to 12, and then the clock was amp/pm on restart

          @sdetweil Sorry, I tired to use block but again, 1st time so it didn’t work. But this si what I have:

          language: "en",
          	locale: "en-US",
          	logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR"], // Add "DEBUG" for even more logging
          	timeFormat: 12,
          	units: "imperial"

                @sdetweil on the code block

                has to be a blank line before and after
                and the character was ~ not `

                did u do that manually, type in the chars of hit the </> after selecting the text ?

                    NEVER change the CODE

                    in config.js

                    		{
                    			module: "clock",
                    			position: "top_left"
                    		},
                    

                    whatever u need to configure goes inside a config:{} section,…

                    if not there, add one

                    		{
                    			module: "clock",
                    			position: "top_left",
                                           config: {
                                                .... whatever 
                                          }
                    		},

                          @sdetweil OH, that’s what you meant by block.
                          But as far as changing anything in the code I didn’t, except the 12 and imperial

                              @louise said in Clock format:

                              anything in the code I didn’t, except the 12 and imperial

                              then u changed something

                              NEVER edit the source files… ALL changes go thru config.js

                              the design is that things u specify in config.js override thing in the source code… so you NEVER have to touch the source file.
                              if you DON’T specify something, then the module default setting will be used…
                              (each module should document what that is… )

                                @louise again you are pasting the source code… and missed a step,

                                after the paste into the message here, SELECT the text AGAIN, and then push the code button

                                we want to see what settings are in config.js for clock, not clock.js

                                      @louise nope, still don’t want to see the code

                                      edit your ~/MagicMirror/config/config.js

                                      find the section that says

                                         module:"clock"
                                      

                                      and copy from the line above that is

                                      {
                                      

                                      to the macthing line below
                                      that is

                                      }
                                      

                                      and paste THAT, and then select it all (ctrl a)
                                      and then it the button

                                          replay to message here

                                          paste text

                                          ctrl-a (select all)
                                          (it will have my userid in the select of the reply )
                                          press code block button

                                          I just did this and got
