I am getting an error when trying to see if Time has synced with the ds3231 rtc.

Just as i was writing this i noticed i get the error even without using timeStatus, if i comment out #include <TimeLib.h> i no longer get the error but instead get timeStatus not declared in scope.
You have two libraries using the same name for conflicting purposes. One uses it as a function and one uses it as a macro.
I would try commenting out the is line 36 in C:\Users\Tara Stanley\Documents\Arduino\libraries\Sodaq_DS3231\src/Sodaq_DS3231.h:
uint8_t dayOfWeek() const { return wday;} /*Su=1 Mo=2 Tu=3 We=4 Th=5 Fr=6 Sa=7 */

Thanks that fixed that, what does one need to use for the setSyncProvider(); to set the time for timeLib? I know most of the rtc libarys use rtc.get or RTC.get, but the Sodaq_DS3231.h libary gives an error.

'class Sodaq_DS3231' has no member named 'get'[/code
If i use Serial.println(timeStatus()); it displays 0 to the serial.
Ok i think i have it.
uint32_t syncProvider()
{
DateTime now = rtc.now(); //get the current date-time
uint32_t ts = now.getEpoch();
return ts;
}
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Wire.begin();
rtc.begin();
pinMode(dayLed, OUTPUT);
pinMode(moonLed, OUTPUT);
setSyncProvider(syncProvider);
}
void loop() {
DateTime now = rtc.now(); //get the current date-time
uint32_t ts = now.getEpoch();
currentMillis = millis();
fadeCurrentMillis = millis();
if (currentMillis - previousMillis >= interval) {
previousMillis = currentMillis; // Save the last time time and temp was displayed
//clockDisplay(); //Print date and time to serial(9600)
//roomTemp(); //Print temp from rtc to serial(9600)
Serial.println(timeStatus());
}
timeStatus now prints 2 to serial.

Ok so that did not work, i removed
dayOfWeek() const { return wday;} /*Su=1 Mo=2 Tu=3 We=4 Th=5 Fr=6 Sa=7 */
from my code and it solved the issue.
Now i have add the Library and the issue returned, so i actually commented out line 36 and now i get this error.

Sorry about the previous confusion.
To avoid issues and conflicts between the ds3231 and the Time and TimeAlarms libaries, I would recommend tht you use the Jack Christensen library for the ds3232 and ds3231. It is rock solid, and can be found at GitHub - JChristensen/DS3232RTC: Arduino Library for Maxim Integrated DS3232 and DS3231 Real-Time Clocks
It is designed to work in conjunction with the Time and Time Alarms libraries and is also a drop in replacement for the very common DS1307 library. The effort it will take you to learn some new syntax will quickly pay off.

Thanks, didn't take but just a minute to swap it over. The reason for using Sodaq was just because of the ability to use the temperature from the rtc, but that is not really going to be applicable to what i'm doing anyways.

That's actually supported in the Christensen library.
