xmonad modmask change not working

I modified a default config of xmonad filled with commented explanations. All I did was change defaultModMask = mod1Mask. to mod4Mask The config later uses the var to set the actual modmask I'm not sure what the issue is. I've played around with setting the value directly and changing to mod3mask, etc. No matter what my mod key is left-alt. I use xmonad --restart between each poke at trying to fix this.

here is the config, search defaultmodmask will jump to areas of interest.

You have to recompile xmonad too after changing your configuration, not just restart it. In exactly execute

xmonad --recompile
xmonad --restart

which should also be bound to ModMask-q per default.
