Alt-Dashboard 6.95
« on: May 18, 2017, 05:41:10 PM »
Hi

I have just upgraded to 6.95 and the extended Forecast at the bottom of my webpage has WU Forecast, I use Wxsim and have changed to that in the config files. Also icons missing as well. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Many thanks

If you run check-fetch-times.php?show=versions on your site, it shows you have a few scripts to update to current versions.. one of them is the WU-forecast.php script .. that will get your WU-forecast working again.

If you only want to use WXSIM for your forecasts, then change Settings.php
Code: [Select]
$SITE['fcstscript']    = 'WU-forecast.php';    // Non-USA, Non-Canada Wunderground Forecast Script
$SITE['fcstorg']        = 'WU';    // set to 'WU' for WeatherUnderground

// Uncomment the two lines below to use WXSIM as the ONLY forecast script to use
// $SITE['fcstscript']    = 'plaintext-parser.php';    // WXSIM forecast (if only forecast script)
// $SITE['fcstorg']        = 'WXSIM';    // set to 'WXSIM' for WXSIM forecast
to
Code: [Select]
//$SITE['fcstscript']    = 'WU-forecast.php';    // Non-USA, Non-Canada Wunderground Forecast Script
//$SITE['fcstorg']        = 'WU';    // set to 'WU' for WeatherUnderground

// Uncomment the two lines below to use WXSIM as the ONLY forecast script to use
$SITE['fcstscript']    = 'plaintext-parser.php';    // WXSIM forecast (if only forecast script)
$SITE['fcstorg']        = 'WXSIM';    // set to 'WXSIM' for WXSIM forecast
and the WXSIM forecast will be shown on the dashboard and the wxforecast.php page.

It's still a good idea to keep the scripts updated to current levels :)

Thanks I have made the changes and it's fine now. I don't use WU but will update my scripts.

Thanks again.
