Thank you. I must have made other errors

Copy & paste question
What should I use to paste the instructions into the config.js file? I’m guessing as to the indent location for the various lines and apparently that makes a difference.

RE: Where to insert text?
But… now i installed a couple modules, checking everything but MM is stuck ‘loading’. All that shows is the clock and weather and the header for Jeopardy. Where is my error? Below is what I have:
}, { module: "weatherforecast", position: "top_right", header: "Weather Forecast", config: { location: "West Linn", locationID: "5760009", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.$ appid: "xxxxx" } }, { module: 'MMM-IPCam', position: 'top_left', config: { invertColors: false, updateInterval : 10000, host: '192.168.50.8', port: 80, user: 'xxxxx', pass: 'xxxxx', } }, { module: "newsfeed", position: "bottom_bar", config: { feeds: [ { title: "New York Times", url: "https://rss.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml" } ], showSourceTitle: true, showPublishDate: true, broadcastNewsFeeds: true, broadcastNewsUpdates: true } }, ] };

RE: Where to insert text?
I used pm2 to autostart MM. Now I can’t get to the Pi desktop. I used pm2 stop mm then on the Pi command Q. MM disappeared for a few seconds but restarted right away. I rebooted and repeated but can’t get off MM

Where to insert text?
I’m trying to add some 3rd party modules to my MM. Many require text to be added to the config.js file. I tried but broke the config. I removed what I had pasted in and all is working now. I searched for the protocols for modifying the config but can’t find an answer. With all the {, ( ), ', " }, etc I need help. Where would I insert the following in the config.js file:
{
module: “MMM-quote-of-the-day”,
position: “lower_third”,
config: {
language: “en”,
updateInterval: “1d”
}

RE: Total noobie question re formatting
Thank you but what do I use to access the config.js file? Can I ssh into the Pi to make these changes or from the Ubuntu desktop?

Total noobie question re formatting
I installed MM on my Pi4. It looks good but I tried to change to time format to 12 hour in Terminal. But I ran into syntax errors every time. I was in the MagicMirror directory and tried moment commands, format commands with no success. I read thru many guides but they were lacking in examples of how to type it out. I found h hh was one way and LT another but what actually lets me change it is beyond me. Can someone point me to a beginner’s guide?
