Here’s a couple things things I wish I knew about how to google errors that you get. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Googling is a very important skill, especially for trouble shooting why something you’re using isn’t working. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just last night google wasn’t working, I tried firefox and duckduckgo, and low and behold the same search yielded different results, one of them being a documentation page with the information that I needed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
