Weatherlink to RSS Feed (XML)
« on: November 11, 2018, 06:03:38 PM »
Hi

i was searching now by 3 hours without any success so I write this post and hope for your support.

I am running a Davis Vantage Pro2 with Weatherlink IP 6.0.4. I update every 10 minutes my website via weatherlink and also generate an RSS (XML) file, located here: http://www.wetter-mistelbach.at/rss.xml

Unfortunately I am not able to state a correct W3C PubDate tag with the Weatherlink buildin HTML Tags. So I am asking if someone here has found a solution with out of the box solutions or Expansion Modules.

I am not able to post my current weather on facebook via IFTT without correct RSS XML file.

Oh, ... what is my primary target: To post current weather conditions every 10 minutes on a facebook page. If you have therefore other solution it would be also great for me. My server ist running Windows 10 1809 with Weatherlink 6.0.4

Thank you so much for supoprt!

Regards, Jochen

Facebook?  Can't be done any more.  FB turned off those sorts of feeds unless you create your own relay server/bot.  My sat comm (Inreach) used to do this but FB killed it. 
Need low cost IP monitoring?  http://wirelesstag.net/wta.aspx?link=NisJxz6FhUa4V67/cwCRWA or PM me for 50% off Wirelesstags!!

Hi Bushman,

thank you for Reply. Do you know any solution how to generate an RSS/XML File with Weatherlink or any alternative solution or Expansion module? As I understood, my Facebook interests are not feasible - but currently also my RSS XML file is not as it should be. Because the Weatherlink HTML Tags does not Support the required Date-Format?

Regards, Jochen
