        Use a different module for compliments…

        https://github.com/cowboysdude/MMM-NiceThings

        A lot easier to use…

            This is the config…VERY simple!

            {
            module: ‘MMM-NiceThings’,
            position: ‘lower_third’
            },

            @Mykle1 will show you the errors so if you want you can also fix your config :) He’s good like that!

              Can anyone figure out what I’m doing wrong?

              Your use of curly quotes

              “Good morning love!”,
              

              Should be

              "Good morning love!",
              

              No more curly quotes, EVER! :^)

              Just so we’re clear, you can’t use them at all so you’ll have to check your entire config for them.

              Find ” and “ Replace with "

                    @Mykle1 Outside of that though is there any syntax issue with the lines starting with config: { down to compliments: {?
                    Edit: thanks guys turns out I had left out a comma and putting that in fixed it (after changing the quotes).

                      No worries friend. We’ve all been there.

                      Excellent! Those are two things you won’t forget.
