HOMEWEATHERSTATION TEMPLATE WITH WEATHER DISPLAY API

I just installed this new version and can not get the forecast to show.
Any ideas?

Blainec,

Have you got stationcron.php set to run every 10 minutes in weather display (in addition to empty.php and addtoyear.php)? Stationcron.php updates the forecast.

Hope that helps.

Well will probably get a few eye rolls with this question but I’m a total caveman when it comes to this but here goes. Where do I unzip this template? I put it in a folder on my computer but see nowhere to even start working on it.

Thanks
John

Quote from ‘Idesign Simplicity’ thread today: "standalone WD-API / MYSQL versions now merged into one template so you have a choice "

Looking good, but can’t get extra temp/hum sensor #1 data to show. Is it in the API yet?

And why is it looking for a MySQL database when I’m using API / Wunderground? (I chose chartswu, not WD charts.)

I’ve put in a WD feature suggestion here to get extratemp/hum#1 (at least) added to the end of the API.

Yes, Marty spent a few hours trying to sort this for me last night! I didn’t want to use MySQL but wd.php insisted we had to. . . he’s found a workaround. (I did ask the question last night, above: “And why is it looking for a MySQL database when I’m using API / Wunderground? (I chose chartswu, not wdcharts.)”)

In the meantime: what do the 4 cron jobs in WD API setup screen do? Do I need them?

OK, thanks. Note that WD doesn’t give you a choice for stationcron.php frequency, just specifies every 10 mins.

I must have misunderstood your original post - “standalone WD-API / MYSQL versions now merged into one template so you have a choice” - because I really only wanted the standalone WD-API and all the easysetup seems to be slanted towards MySQL. . .

You have an impressive grasp of the local patois. . .

Just discovered that my extratemp#1 is coming up under your extrasensor3 module! I am hoping Brian H can add humidity so you can also display that and the apparent (“Feels”) temp, just like the homeindoor module.

all I see are demands
where is the please or thankyou’s ?

I do apologise if you think I am demanding something. It started off as a feature suggestion/request because I hadn’t realised you had already put most of it in place, and I did say “thanks” over there, where I “asked” if you were intending to add the extra hums. Now I am saying “please” over here, after “hoping” that you would be able to.

Sorry, you’ve lost me. . . why do I need to do that? (I don’t have solar, only UV.)

Ah! Thanks for that. (The older version I run used to come up with a blank graph and “NaN.undefine” if you hovered over it.)

Sorry, but near total setup failure here. Readings are inaccurate and don’t change.

Hi Brian,

I am running the WD Mac version 293 and have the template files upload, but it seems that I am unable to have the files upload for new data.
The site is http://millerbayweather.com.

Thanks in advance,

Sean

Didn’t seem to work. I replaced todaysolarradiation.php with latest todaysolar.php in /chartswu - is that right? (Even tried renaming the new file to todaysolarradiation.php, just in case. . .)

I’m not offended, I’m just very sorry if others have been affected and that they’re giving you grief.

Apologies to all concerned.

P.S. the weather up here is still pish. . .

I am just doing what has been demanded
to have extra temp/hum added (3 extra temp then 3 extra hum) (if no sensor then it will be out of range data)

I did so and nothing changed. As before only the “Today Daylight & Night Info” looks right.

Thanks, Brian, you’re a star!

Is it in the latest download?

Brian U has sent me an email to say he no longer has the template available for WD, saying that I am adding these things without telling him
which is not true
I sent him an email a week ago that I had added the extra temp data , but I never heard back
so I thought that must be OK so I added the extra hum data
and he is claiming a break down in communication yet the only email I have had from his for a couple of weeks is to say he now no longer supports WD due to reasons above
