<![CDATA[Is there a Difference between these ???]]>Does config.js see a difference between these?
{
ipAddress: “192.168.178.31”,
name: “QNAP1”,
icon: “database”,
colorStateOnline: “green”,
colorStateOffline: “red”,
},

{ ipAddress: “192.168.178.31”, name: “QNAP1”, icon: database", colorStateOnline: “green”, colorStateOffline: “red” },

I only ask because I can not get the color State’s to work.

  • list itemThe single line example has " (quote marks) missing in “database” that you need to add.

  • list itemThe multi-line example has an extra , (comma) after “red” that you need to delete.

This is like programming: precise details matter and stop things working if you get them wrong

What I am trying to get at does it matter if the line is one line of text or does it need to be several lines to make it read correctly in MM?

if u copy/paste from outside a code block backtics

the bad quotes(curved/slanted) are copied, as in your example

and will not be corrected, and will cause problems in config.js

that looks like this: 1967f487-8ada-4dad-af09-500c3dfb3cb4-image.png

that button puts this ``` into your text, allowing you to get code posted like this to make it readable:

{
ipAddress: “192.168.178.31”,
name: “QNAP1”,
icon: “database”,
colorStateOnline: “green”,
colorStateOffline: “red”,
},

please use the code ticks to post code.

Yes there is a difference, you missed a " before database in the second one.
