Re: Weather Skins Not Working
Make sure you save the WeatherComJSONVariables.inc file in your Notepad after making the modifications and before refreshing the skin: As you can see, it works.
As for Sonder, it appears the author already implemented the "refresh API key" system similarly to the little skin I wrote before, in his settings skin.

Re: Weather Skins Not Working
Did you save the file before refreshing Rainmeter?

Re: Weather Skins Not Working
Damn I forgot about this little option. I remember enabling it before but because I have created another profile on my system I must have forgotten to enable it again since I rarely touch it and rarely use webparser.Yincognito wrote: ↑January 12th, 2022, 8:39 pm This doesn't happen on my side, everything works perfectly:

Unfortunately, I can't figure out what is wrong on your side, since I can't experience your error in the first place. I thought about having UserAgent options and whatnot in the measure, but I found out a super simple WebParser measure worked anyway, at least in my case. I have no idea what could be wrong in your setup - it should work without issues.
P.S. The way the error is phrased seems to indicate that maybe the https protocol is somehow involved? Just speculating, but I don't have enough data to state this as a fact, obviously.
EDIT: You said that that skins parsing weather.com work normally. Maybe using the options the WebParser measures in those skins use could solve the issue? If those are indeed parsing the weather.com webpage and not the JSON, that is (not sure if there's a difference between the two when it comes to the web request though)...
EDIT2: Anyway, keep me posted if you discover what the issue is, because I might implement a weather.com "APIKey detection" system in my skins' Settings area based on this little skin, on their next update.

Re: Weather Skins Not Working
Don't add any comments or new lines after the "; Don't change any below here."
Just modify the one line (apiKey) only....
Adding a comment or extra line will cause the issue of it not working after updating the APIKey

Solved.
The bug was eventually in the old version of Rainmeter.
After downloading the latest versions of Rainmeter and Sonder skin, the weather is displayed correctly.
Well thank you!

Re: Weather Skins Not Working
Well, I'm extremely surprised. Do you know maybe which version of Rainmeter have you had before?

That is interesting.
Glad you got it working.

Re: Weather Skins Not Working
Oh, so it was related to the https protocol, after all. Excellent job to identify where the problem was - and useful to know as well.Active Colors wrote: ↑January 13th, 2022, 1:28 pm Damn I forgot about this little option.

Thanks for letting me - and us - know about the solution. For the regular user, the default settings there should cause no problems in accessing weather.com and its page source to identify the key for the JSON.
