      @rob73 the pm2 app can restart on config change, and my installer sets it up that way.

      however it doesn’t work reliably on any platform.
      i made changes last year to solve this, and its works sometimes

          @rob73 oh, some ctrl-r

          ctrl-r only reloads the web page, its does not restart any of the node_helpers some modules use

          node_helpers only get loaded at startup

          example. weather is all in browser, calendar uses a node_helper to get data
          so ctrl-r will reload weather completely
          if you changed the calendar config to add/remove a calendar, then ctrl-r will NOT do that
          so, you have to look a the module implementation to see how you need to restart

            @sdetweil That makes sense to me about reloading the page and not restarting the modules and things.

            I figured out the calendar config. I was leaving out the config {} section and just adding the options right under the module: “clock” & position:“top_left”.

            I looked at that over and over and compared to examples and I couldnt figure it out to save my life. I woke up in the middle of the night and took a look at it again and it jumped out at me.

            Thanks for the responses.
