              Change this section of the newsfeed.js file (copy, paste, overwrite)…

              0_1539381938884_Screenshot (146).png

              and add a getStyles function to call the newsfeed.css…

              0_1539381999894_Screenshot (145).png

              Create a newsfeed.css file and put the following in it…

              0_1539382082409_Screenshot (148).png

              (I think I will post pics instead of code from now on!) :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: :smirking_face: :confused_face:

              Enjoy!

                You’ll have to find the logo for the news feed you are using (Google images)

                save it to your newsfeed folder

                change the part in the top code (USATodayLogo.jpg) to match your image

                  Now, to figure out how to do it for those who have more than 1 newsfeed!

                    I tried to do all those changes to newsfeed.js and created newsfeed.css file but it seems like that I’m doing something wrong beacuse now my whole newsfeed segment disappeared from my MagicMirror :D I took couple of screenshots to show what are the changes that I did.

                    0_1539357230093_Nimetön suunn.malli (1).png

                    I replaced that part of the code that is shown in first picture with that one that is in the second picture.

                    newsfeed.css file is in the third picture and all of the files in the newsfeed folder are shown in the last picture.

                    Even if it is not working yet I really appreciate all your effort that you have been putting on this :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

                      description.innerHTML = `<img src="/modules/default/newsfeed/hsLogo.png">` + ...
                      

                      HTML entity escaping is not so good in this Forum BBS program
                      @justjim1220 might had typed ' but this BBS program had changed it to " automatically.
                      Anyway, you can use above code;

                          Yeah, with those changes newsfeed module came back but it still looks exactly the same that it was, so there isn’t that logo that I’m using

                          EDIT

                          showDescription was set to false and when I changed it to true all changes started to work but now I have another problem. Now there is the original headline and the new one so there are two headlines at the same time.

                          EDIT 2.0

                          Finally it works! I had to change the newsfeed.js code a little bit and had to change some true values to false from config.js. Also, I decided to move the module to bottom_left. After all changes the final result looks like this. I’m about to make second news module right below this one after this one.

                              I see that I didn’t notice the changes that the forums made when I copy/pasted the code.

                              Apologies!

                              I also missed a step: Need to add getStyles function to the newsfeed.js Pic for placement

                              0_1539381776852_Screenshot (145).png

                              And this is what I tried to post and the forums didn’t like it and cahnged it, This is what you need to get it to work:
                              0_1539381869307_Screenshot (146).png

                              I will fix this in my original post.

                              Again, Apologies!

                                          See ‘max-width’, and ‘max-height’ or you can use ‘background-position:contain’ as backfroundimage to adjust image size

                                            Thanks I thought it was because the logo image is too big so it does not display it. Now I have solved, the logo is displayed, but I have the same problem as @blueadam, which means I have the newsfeed 2 times the old version and the new version. And I’ve tried many variants, but I can not make the old one disappear.
                                            That’s why I ask @blueadam to tell me how he got rid of the old one.
                                            Thanks
