Brian,
I switched over to the Meteotemplate API last night and my website (http://cedarridgeweather.com) is no longer receiving Solar and UV data. Looking at my Meteotemplate database, I can see that it stopped when I made the switch at 23:50 last night. Jachym pointed out that the Solar and UV are not in the raw data (http://cedarridgeweather.com/meteotemplateLive.txt). All other data seems to be uploading fine. I’m running Weather Display 10.37S44. Do I need to change a setting somewhere in Weather Display?
Thanks.

solar data is working for me:

what weather station type?
make sure the switch is on under control panel, solar setup, in WD
Davis VP2 Pro Plus. I confirmed that the Solar + UV box is checked in the station setup (see attached). I tried unchecking that box, restarting WD, r rechecking the box and again re-starting WD and it’s still not uploading Solar & UV using the Meteotemplate API. Solar & UV were uploading prior to switching to the API.

Hi Chris,
previously the data was taken directly from clientraw, now it takes in whatever WD sends to it, but given it works on other people’s sites, Im 99% sure the api script is working fine. In your case I cannot see it right in the realtime file it creates before doing anything else - first thing the api script does is saves all info it received, before doing any further processing, and already in this file I dont see S and UV
No S/UV:

It definitely seems to be on the Weather Display side - the Solar and UV data are not being included in what is sent. I turned off the API and went back to the original method and Solar and UV data are flowing again. I’ll try re-installing build 44 and see if that fixes it.

That was it Brian! Interestingly, I have not had that switch on in the past. Thank you.
