Bug in name of the city

Post by Leeroy2608 »

I get "Kazan&#27" as the name of the city instead of just Kazan. How can I fix it?

First, this isn't a bug in Rainmeter, it is an issue that the author of that skin needs to address. To fix it yourself, you can try the following:

1. Ensure you are running the latest beta version of Rainmeter (this version has new features that may help you).
2. In the skin .ini file, locate the WebParser measure that is returning the city name. You can use the About dialog to view all the measures and find the one getting the city name.
3. Add the following lines to the measure if not already present: DecodeCharacterReference=1 and DecodeCodePoints=1.
4. Save your changes and refresh the skin.

See if that helps...
