chadrc options not applying

[Vortigern-The-Grey]

I tried to enable nvdash and change the statusline in my chadrc, but the options don't apply. I think that for some reason, chadrc isn't being loaded. My chadrc:

return M

EDIT: changed the ui to M.ui, still didn't work.

How is chadrc loaded by NVChad?

[siduck]

because your ui table isnt even part of the root table which is M :/

[siduck]

M.ui ...

[Vortigern-The-Grey]

@siduck I realized that and changed it to M.ui, it still doesn't work.
