      Hi all,

      Looking at modifying the MMM-BIRTHDAYS to display a birthday cake icon.

      I’ve added symbol: ‘birthday-cake’, to the config.js file along with
      getStyles: function () {
      return [“font-awesome.css”];
      },

      but this doesn’t appear to work. I’ve tried comparing to calendar.js etc but to no avail.

      Any help / guidance (in simpletons language), would be greatly appreciated.

        @bicolorbore586 open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i, and select the console tab

        add part of the module name to the filter field to get just those messages

        u can examine the web content too. to make sure the icon name is specified correctly

                    @sdetweil Copied and pasted the code and I get the below 29368d2e-22bc-4a73-9588-cf7df46f6846-image.png

                    Questions…
                    Do I need to add each persons name to where it says {{p.name}}
                    Does it matter where in the .njk code I put the text?

                        @sdetweil Yeah the config.js is all set up.
                        I would like it a inn the screen shot you posted where you have
                        Cake Icon Steve 25 Nov 50
                        Cake Icon Marco 30 Dec 85

                        Similar to the calendar, but the birthday cake instead of calendar icon.
