weather.com data elements not showing

[scratch67]

For the last few days my weather skin is not showing two data elements, flik and icon. I checked log and no errors. I tried another location and it fails on same data elements. I checked location code and it is correct. I ran webparser test skin, passed. I checked to make sure the StringIndex was correct for these two, yep.

I wanted to check the XML weather.com RSS feed to see if the sequencing changed. But I haven't found it on the web yet. Anybody know the link for this?

I hope I don't have to change to another RSS weather feed!

Please help.

Have you read this?
Change to Weather.com XML feed

I am using wxdata.weather.com. I changed it in 2016.

I used this link to check location ID:

http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/search/search?where=douglasville, georgia

I got this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<search ver="3.0">
<loc id="USGA0178" type="1">Douglasville, GA</loc>
</search>

Changed the skin to the USGA0178, same results.

Please, can you post your code which will allow us check it out?

For what I've seen, the flik and icon are missing in the xml file.
You have two options:
- wait some time/days and maybe they can come back, due to some hiccups on Weather.com site;
- change the code to use the <part p="d"> and/or <part p="n"> icons and not use the flik index.

Thanks, I was suspecting something changed in the XML file.

I've been trying to find the weather.com XML so I can review it, where is it?

Use this: http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/weather/local/USGA0178?cc=*&unit=i&dayf=4

Depending the number of days forecast you use, change the last number.

See Debug info in the manual.

To see the info the WebParser receives, add Debug=2 to your main WebParser measure and refresh the skin. This will create WebParserDump.txt file.

To see the StringIndexes in the !Log, add Debug=1 and refresh.

Remove Debug=# from the measure afterwards.

Alternative: Right-click the webpage and select 'View source' ...

Add the Debug text to the Metadata section?

I don't have forecast in my skin, only current. The <part p="d"> and/or <part p="n"> are not in the current section of the XML file.
