Omnimo Weather

Post by Gankaku »

Hello everyone,

I use the Omnimo package. Everything is working but the weather. I've edited it and looked around but not exactly sure what is wrong. The author's website is no longer up.

Is there something I can fix in that weather that would work? Thanks!

Open "Skins\WP7\Hubs\weather.ini" in a text editor.
Find the section [MeasureWeatherRSS]
Change the line:
URL=http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/#WeatherCode#?cc=*&unit=#unit5#&dayf=6

To

URL=http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/weather/local/#WeatherCode#?cc=*&unit=#unit5#&dayf=6

Save the file and "Refresh All" in Rainmeter.

If you are still having problems, let us know exactly which weather skins are not working (there are at least four variations in Omnimo) and someone may be able to offer further help.

What weather information site does the Omnimo package use?

Probably we need at least the URL= and RegExp= expressions in your Webparser measures of Omnimo package, to figure out the issue.

PS: Sorry, eclectic-tech beats me... Ignore this post.

No problem mak_kawa! :D
Omnimo has over 4000 items :o , but it appears to only use 1 weather measure in the skin I mentioned.
The only issue I might overlook is that my version has not been used by me for several years and something may be slightly different in the OP version. :confused:

Thank you - I did that and it didn't work. It seems that my weather.ini is here: C:\....\Rainmeter\Skins\WP7\TextItems\Weather - I'm not sure which variant it was. However, when I made the change you suggested above, it changed the panel (not opaque with a black background that displays on top of my other widgets), but did not display the weather. Maybe this one needs different code?

That skin is working for me. It does us some different variables. Honestly, I may have edited this long ago and forgot O.O
At this point, I would either post the code you have for that skin here and someone may see what needs to be changed, or take DVO's suggestion and download the latest version.

Actually, that page looks fresh and new. I may have the older one but I'm not sure. It's been awhile since I updated. I will try that now and post back if that helps. Otherwise I'll post my code as suggested. Thanks!

Just FYI Updating worked. Some things are a bit different, and I have to make some adjustments, but I got pretty much my setup again, and the weather panel I use is fixed now. Thanks all!

I have no idea what URLs you're talking about, but:
- right click on the Weather skin (or "panel" or whatever they call it)
- choose Personalization from the context menu
- choose Units, Display And Fonts from the left side of the new window / skin that just opened (i.e. Omnimo UI)
- set your latitude and longitude in decimal format in the 2 boxes under the Weather Code text, in the right part of the skin, pressing Enter after each input
- close the Omnimo UI window / skin from the X button in the top right corner
- right click again on the Weather skin to open its context menu
- choose More Actions...
- choose Refresh Skin
That's all. It worked for me.
