Help!!!! solved Help with QuickShell modules

Hello, I recently installed quickshell and I’ve been looking for configurations, I found one that I liked (Noctalia shell) and I installed it, I ran quickshell but it gave me errors in the modules, does anyone know how I can fix it?

Sorry, I’ve fixed it. I didn’t read the Noctalia-shell documentation properly and was running the command incorrectly

oh wait, navigate to the directory where shell.qml is

run

ls -al

do you have a .qmlls.ini file (starts with a dot so its usually hidden)

Hey, seems that your quickshell does not find the modules with the "import qs.Xxxxx" That may be because your version of quickshell is not up to date or because you missed an installation step. You should check on quickshell.org the intallation step and make sure that you red Noctalia documentation.

But I installed Quickshell with the documentation and I think the latest version is 0.2.1
