Setting weather with neon space

Hi everyone.
I have been using Neon space pro skin.
I have googled on the subject of changing the weather and found multiple sources saying to go to weather.com enter your postcode and edit the weather skin and replace the txt with the address on the weather app page.
I live in Australia and the link it generates is " https://weather.com/en-AU/weather/today/l/ASXX0089:1:AS "
However when I replace the standard link with this one nothing happens.
I would appreciate it something could inform me of what I'm doing wrong lol.

Thanks.

Don't replace the URL, put back the original one (Url=http://wxdata.weather.com/wxdata/weather/local/#Zipcode#?cc=*&unit=#Tscale#&dayf=1), then open the Variables.inc file within the @Resources folder, locate and replace the Zipcode variable with your weather code (Zipcode=ASXX0089).
Refresh the skin. It should work.

Close...

If you are using the actual values (not a Rainmeter variable), you do not put the values in between #...#

The correct unit is either m for Celsius or i for Imperial; f works because unrecognized characters default to Imperial.
