@En-TACT under each of those sections up at the top which has region is where the modules are located in the web content, the DOM. So if you expand those you should be able to find where those modules are that are that you’re talking about.
an easier way is to use the pointer in the top left corner of the developer’s window elements tab and click that and then navigate over the content of the module that you’re interested in, and that part of the DOM will be expanded on the right hand side and then you’ll see the module entry with its ID
In a CSS element, everything to the left of the open brace {, is called the selector clause.
it’s selects the elements that everything inside the braces will apply toI use this cheat sheet to help me remember all the different options.

and you can combine the statement elements to make very focused selections of content.
One thing to remember is that the selector clause will ALWAYS select ALL elements in the DOM that match. You might want just one, but if it finds multiple it will select multiple.
So you may have to be very specific about how you find things anyhow.a quick beginner on the selector clause:
if you have a name with a dot in the front that means that’s a class name
if you have a name with a pound sign in front that means it’s an ID
if you have a name with nothing in front that means it’s an element name like a div or p for a paragraph, or li -
@sdetweil I found the div id for the current weather, module_4_weather. I’ll look into using that to change the icon this evening. Thanks.

@sdetweil got the animated weather icons working for current & forecast modules - thank you!
-
@En-TACT awesome!!! thanks for the feedback,
one thing to note on using the module ID , if you move any modules around (in config.js, not on screen w position) or add/delete near the top, the IDs WILL change… so if things stop working, consider looking here too… -
@sdetweil ahh that makes sense … I’ll keep that in mind!
