Same with the

which should be

Copy to clipboard

fields:
  title: {{title}}   # No quotes
  title2: {{title2}}

OMG you are the bomb . It was the quotes on title and title2!
I’ve confirmed the yaml files do not have tabs by using notepad++ view>symbols>white space and tabs.

I noticed the error log pointing to title last night but didnt think twice about the quotes because of comparing to other posts (and github). I tried adding titles removing the title trying to fumble through, sounds like i need yaml 101

Im puzzled why are the quotes are there in the first place coming from github. Also referencing another post on a custom_widget, their yaml has the quotes also.

Maybe an update by design? or very likely I need to learn the fundamentals of yaml and appdeamon – I am a happy camper. this is a great learning experience for me and thank you for taking the time to help me out!
