CodeCode is definitely right: the last posted screenshot and your last code doesn't match each other. Both the path of the image and its name are different. In your last code the substitutions have been done to images into the @Resources folder (which in a Rainmeter code is represented by the #@# variable) and the files should have been named as Jan1.png, Feb1.png and so on. But on the last screenshot the folder in which the images should reside is (as CodeCode wrote) the config itself (Maximalist suite), while the images should have been named as January.png (and probably February.png and so on).
So as suggested by CodeCode, please make a new screenshot AND attach the code which has been used to create that screenshot.

The code is the same and the logs aren't the same

Screenshot 2022-01-12 182341.png

Code: Select all

[measureDate]
Measure=Time
Format=%B

Substitute="1":"#@#Jan1.png","2":"#@#Feb2.png","3":"#@#Mar3.png","4":"#@#Apr4.png","5":"#@#May5.png","6":"#@#June6.png","7":"#@#July7.png","8":"#@#Aug.png","9":"#@#Sep9.png","10":"#@#Oct10.png","11":"#@#Nov.png","12":"#@#Dec12.png"
For somegodamn reason rainmeter is assuming Jan1.png to be January.png

Yeah and all of em are in the #@# resources folder

Because for some goddamn reason you decided to use Format=%B instead of Format=%m ;-)

Good catch!!! Didn't realize this, but now it makes sense, definitely does.

Due to the above small mistake, discovered by death.crafter, the substitution doesn't go on, nothing is substituted, so the [month] Image meter is looking for an image called January.png, into the root config. Not finding it the error messages are shown in the log.
The solution is pretty simple, as described by death.crafter: replace the Format=%B option of the [measureDate] measure, by Format=%m.

Strange. It still dosent work. I thought you were right cause for some reason I thought %B will return a numeric value of the month instead of the name of the month. That was the reason I changed it to %B in the first place

Am not sure: does it work now?

Can you please create a Rainmeter skin package of this so we can test it with all of your code and images?

The solution may be simple, but without a package all these replies are unlikely to help.

You are right. Here is the package. The images were edited by me
