basic help

[cade72]

Hi, I am very new to everything(sorry) and have a question. it would be awesome if someone helped.

I followed this from what I understood was I should put this

{
		module: "clock",
		position: "top_left",	
		config: {
			displaySeconds: false,
	                clockBold: true,
		}
	}

this didnt work and now I feel dumb any help would be awesome. this is kinda my first time I have dabbled in programming so sorry again for the basic question.

@cade72 You forgot a comma after the last bracket

and for the future, if u have problems with config.js syntax errors, in the MagicMirror folder run

node tests/configs/check_config.js

it will report the problems. start & fix from the top
edit: wrong name for the checker… (removed extra s on the end)

You could give this a quick read. It tries to explain config entries in the simplest of terms.
