WU - Regional Visible Satellite stopped working
« on: January 16, 2021, 12:00:49 PM »
My website https://heightsweather.info has stopped displaying - for several days -- the WU Regional Visible Satellite map. Although I have not touched the index page, maybe the problem is on my end (or has something changed on WU? [ You are not allowed to view attachments ] ). Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I think you have an older version of the contents of (wx)index.php in your index.php page.  The full main-copy section should be
Code: [Select]
<div id="main-copy">
   
<?php // insert desired warning box at top of page

  
if(isset($SITE['NWSalertsCodes']) and count($SITE['NWSalertsCodes']) > 0) {
// Add nws-alerts alert box cache file
include_once("nws-alerts-config.php");
include($cacheFileDir.$aboxFileName);
// Insert nws-alerts alert box
echo $alertBox;
?>

<script type="text/javascript" src="nws-alertmap.js"></script>
<?php
  
  } else { 
// use atom scripts of choice
if ($useTopWarning) {
  include_once("atom-top-warning.php");
} else {
 print "      <div class=\"advisoryBox\">\n";
 $_REQUEST['inc'] = 'y';
 $_REQUEST['summary'] = 'Y';
 include_once("atom-advisory.php");
 print "      </div>\n";
}
  }
?>

<div class="column-dark">
<div align="center">
  <br/>
<?php if(file_exists('USA-regional-maps-inc.php')) { include_once('USA-regional-maps-inc.php'); } ?>
<img src="<?php echo $SITE['imagesDir']; ?>spacer.gif" alt="spacer"
height="2" width="620" style="padding:0; margin:0; border: none" />
<div align="center">
<?php if(isset($SITE['ajaxDashboard']) and file_exists($SITE['ajaxDashboard']))
 { include_once($SITE['ajaxDashboard']);
   } else {
print "<p>&nbsp;</p>\n";
print "<p>&nbsp;</p>\n";
print "<p>Note: ajax-dashboard not included since weather station not yet specified.</p>\n";
        for (
$i=0;$i<5;$i++) { print "<p>&nbsp;</p>\n"; }
}?>

    </div>
</div><!-- end center -->

</div><!-- end column-dark -->

</div><!-- end main-copy -->

Mr. True,

As always, thanks for the help and I apologize for being so obtuse. Please let me know which of these (or both?) do I have to alter. And do I have to make any other modifications so that my maps indicate my region?

Just your index.php page needs to be modified per the above .. then you should see the regional maps available.

Working, but now wrong regional maps. What in the world am I doing incorrectly? [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

You need to add to Settings.php
Code: [Select]
$SITE['NWSregion'] = 'bwi'; to select the Baltimore regional map or
Code: [Select]
$SITE['NWSregion'] = 'ne'; for the Albany regional map.  The script defaults to the SouthEast region for the regional radar.

The WU map is controlled by
Code: [Select]
$SITE['WUsatellite'] = 'ne'; for the NorthEast region or
Code: [Select]
$SITE['WUsatellite'] = 'nc'; for the NorthCentral region.  It defaults to the SouthWest region also if the setting is missing in Settings.php.

It looks like the satellite image has gone missing again. I get an empty image frame with just "WU United States Satellite" on my main page.

Anyone else seeing this issue?

 I just checked the maps page on WU and the only map that is working is the current radar one. This looks like an internal problem for WU.

I just sent an email to WU support regarding this issue.

I opened my website using my Linux box (Firefox) and the map showed OK.

I disabled Nord VPN for the Win 10 machine and the maps load. The maps catalog on WU also work.

They must have changed something recently, because it used tor work with Nord VPN running.

I just tried the instructions on NordVPN regarding web pages that won't load. One of the suggestions was to disable CyberSec. That worked. I contacted Nord's support about it.
