"CoronaCounter" is the [b]same config name[/b] published by ms310 a week ago.

It would be good gesture on your part, if you named your root skin folder in your "remake" package to something other than "CoronaCounter", and post an updated package.

Or include ms310's original skin code, along with your skin variant in the "CoronaCounter" folder; that way both versions would be available.

You package will overwrite his and confuse end users when they no longer see the same skin. :uhuh:

Hi dvo (and ms310)

Sad...my country is not supported!! :-)

So I tried to make a simple skin capturing the data for the country not supported by URL=https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/#Country#/.
This skin has slightly different capture logic from yours. Honestly, I am not sure this skin works or not for all countries...my skill is...
And this skin does not use Chameleon, because Chameleon 1.6.1 instantly crushes with ContextAwareColors=1 at least for me.

In fact, Italy is not my country, just an example, sorry.

CoronaCounter_alt.ini
* Is the ini-format attachment is a violation in this forum??

Posting a .ini is ok. We would prefer a .rmskin, so someone who isn't familiar with how to create a new skin in Rainmeter can easily install and use your skin, but it's up to you.

Hi mak_kawa - I am seeing your RegEx working for captures 1, 3, 5-9. Only 2 and 4 are missing values when I search for Japan (where I live) as the country.

What problem are you having - are you asking about Chameleon or the data feed?

Hi ms310

StringIndex2 and 4 are "New Cases" and "New Deaths" respectively. They are often vacant in original site for Japan, sometimes not vacant. I don't know the reason. So, this issue is not caused by my RegExp but original data status.

Hi dvo
I will make further post about my remade COVID-19 skin to the separate thread, not here.
I should have done so. I just want to apologize.

Hi dvo

Thank you for the kind/wise words. :-)

Now I am modifying my COVID skin to display fluctuations for the value. When finished, I will think about how/where do I post the skin.

No United States?
How can I add my country to the list of supported areas?

Thank you
