<![CDATA[Welcome Message not shown / Alert not working]]>hi …

having the problem that alert, also welcome_message, is not shown.

simple config:

	modules: [
		{
			module: "alert",
			welcome_message: true
		},
		{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar"
		},
		{
			module: "clock",
			position: "top_left"
		}
	]
};

no error in console. alert js/css loaded.

regards

tabsl

before sending notifications…

function notificationReceived(notification, payload, sender){

if (notification ===  "ALL_MODULES_STARTED") {
  this.sendNotification('SHOW_ALERT', { title:'test', message:'test})
}
},

  {
  	module: "alert",
  	welcome_message: true
  },

yes, this is a config option, so it needs a config:{} block

      {
        module: "alert",
        config:{
        	welcome_message: true
        }
      },
