Need help with weather on a custom skin.

Post by gLAssesRM »

Whats up Everyone, i have a question that i've been stuck on for awhile.

I'm using a skin called cloud2, here is a link:
http://ultimatert.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4fey53

And I am having trouble getting the darn weather to work, i've tried using my zip code and using the weather.com URL code, but it only tells me the weather of the skin creator.

i don't know what else to do :confused:

The skin uses and include @include=Config.inc you need to put your code in this file, save & refresh skin.

what do you mean put thr code in the file?

do you mean erase @include=config.inc part and add my weather code (USCA0638)?

There is a file in the skin folder called "Config.inc". You need to edit that in Notepad (or similar) and insert your weather code. Save, and then refresh the skin.

that said, in big letter on the page you linked to it says:
To change the weather location, right click on location, enter your city's zip code (e.g. LGXX0004), hit enter and refresh skin.
To change units, right click on temperature, enter "i" for imperial or "m" for metric units, hit enter and refresh skin.
which suggests you can skip the manual editing altogether...

i tried that...
that's why im asking here, i entered my zip code and pressed enter it didn't work,
i went to www.weather.com and found my areas weather and input the code into notepad and refreshed skin and still it didn't work, it gave me the weather for latvia.
I've been messing with the code soo much that no weather appears now.

I suggest you re-install the skin then open the config.inc file which you can find by going to -> Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\Desk Cloud 2\Desk Cloud Weather\Config.inc and change the Location= in the [Variables] section to:

Code: Select all

[Variables]
Location=USCA0638
Weather.com has been playing up a bit recently, but I did get the Desk Cloud 2 Weather skin to work after a bit of persistent refreshing. That said, I don't have any problems using Location=USCA0638 in other weather skins.

You can use Explorer to go to where your skins are (usually -> Documents\Rainmeter\Skins) and delete the folders containing any skins you don't want. Once that's done you'll need to click on [Refresh All] in Manage Rainmeter.

ok the author messaged me back. sorry for taking long to reply.
he told me

"There is a config.inc file in the weather skin's folder, edit the inc file.
The skin probably doesn't work because you use Rainmeter 2.2 beta."

after while i opened the config.inc file, and edited the variables, but he said it doesnt work because of the version of rainmeter i'm using, i have the 2.2 ver. beta installed, im going to install the non-beta version.

is there a big difference between the two?
