I've got a nice setup of skins that I am using that should auto-update on their own, but in order to get them to update, I must manually refresh them, using the "Refresh Skin" option when right-clicking the skin. The skins are Gnometer's RSS Feeds, Weatherwall, which can be found here: http://white-baron.deviantart.com/art/Weatherwall-196718197
and VClouds Weather 2, which is here: http://vclouds.deviantart.com/art/VClouds-Weather-2-179058977
I am using Rainmeter 2.0 on a Windows 7 computer. Any and all help is appreciated.

Re: Skins not updating
Both of these sound like they use the webparser plugin to scrape data from the net.
Do the skins not update at all or do they simply take a long time?
It's quite likely that the update rate is set relatively low deliberately. If set too high it creates a huge amount of traffic to the sites and they tend to respond by getting rid of the service.
If you do want to manually change this setting it can be done by searching the .ini and altering the update values. Be warned though, setting too low can cause many problems...
