BB&B skin: How do I change the weather location?
I looked at the .ini and .lua but only got more confused. A "weather for dummies" type answer would be appreciated.

Open your 'Documents' folder, open 'Rainmeter' folder, open 'Skins' folder, open 'BB&B' folder, open '@Resources' folder, open 'Configs' folder, open 'UserVariables.inc' file in your text editor...seimi wrote:I looked at the .ini and .lua but only got more confused.

Follow the information in that file about obtaining your weather code from http://www.weather.com, then change the 'WeatherCode=XXXXXXXX' to the 8-digit code you found for your city on that site; e.g. you should see something like USNY0902 in the address bar.
Check the units=f ('f' or 'm' for Fahrenheit or Metric) to have the correct temperature displayed.
Save the file and refresh the skin.
