No, it will have no issue with that.

Are you quite sure you have done a "refresh all" or exited and restarted Rainmeter since you added those folders?

Shit. That's going to be the issue. I should have thought of that straight off. Rainmeter won't see any new folders or .ini files until you refresh the entire app.

Ah! got it. I had a folder for old versions called Sun & Moon - old. I deleted it, reloaded Rainmeter, and now it works.

Since the old Sun & Moon.ini was not loaded, I'm not sure why that should make a difference.

Whoops! I spoke too soon. The location skin has little squares at the bottom.

You're right. It is just the refresh. I added back the Sun & Sin - old folder, did a restore, and the menu comes up. Still with the little rectangles.)

Neither location skin actually works. I can't enter any location other thanAuburn. When I enter a new location, the refresh button just return to Auburn.


-- Just downloaded a new copy of Weather.COm for DeviantArt. It still doesn't work.

You need the Fonts folder from @Resources in the other skin put in the @Resources folder of this skin.

Thanks. That fixes the icons, but the skin is still stuck on Auburn.

Once you know the fix, the reason for the problem becomes so simple.

Be sure that after you put in some value for the location, you hit ENTER before you click the search icon.
