HWS-template (WD34) beta test topic

Only approximately unless, as Wim says, you have 24 hours’ day or night.

Are we confusing sunrise/sunset with civil, nautical or astronomical dawn/dusk somewhere? Original Sun block or pop-up showed times of civil dawn/dusk (elevation -6

Agreed, but what value does “hours of darkness” have?

None at all. . . except to enable the pretty graphic. :slight_smile:

Moon set getting a little confusing. . . in production here and Gelderland beta.

Cloud cover in Gelderland beta Current Conditions is always in Dutch, whatever the selected language.

The Current Conditions block uses the 1 hour forecast from DarkSky.
That forecast is not reloaded in every language.
I will check when I have normal access again.

I see what you mean: it happens here in production, too. If I select Dutch the DS cloud cover line remains in English.

Sorry.

Any thoughts yet, Wim?

Beta is working great for me. One issue I have. Time is displayed in 24hr format despite being set for 12hr format.

Thanks for the great work Wim.

That is a good catch! Never considered that one.
But it is a bit more difficult one to solve at once. Needs some testing. And probably there should be a comma between the day and year also?

Need to postpone to the next beta and will be included officially in the July release.
Please add all other wishes for extensions you may have to this topic: *** closed*** HWS Template (WD34) Wish List

Didn’t need a comma in the previous version. . . why the change?

The comma seems to be needed for the US version of the date
See here:

Month Day, Year
April 25, 2019

In the rest of the world it seems to be
Day Month Year
25 April 2019

I was of the grid all March, still not 100% OK.

Attached a new version to test, stupid error removed :oops:
There will always be a few minutes difference.
The moon-popup calculates the difference between the different periods => light-dark-light-dark
The sun-block is about this 24 hours day, it calculates => darkness = 24-hours minus todays light.

Hope you feel better soon :slight_smile:

Attached a new version to test

Is this OK for the first production release?

For the latest pwsWD and pwsTEST versions.
But as always, make a copy of the “old” script first

Wim

Latest sun_block.php looks good in pwsWD. Thanks, Wim.

Hi!
Have the translat for Norwegian, can this be in the next update.

Sorry to hear that :frowning: Take it easy Wim.

I was quite surprised to see the variation worldwide when a reference to [mathematical] Pi Day on 14 March went right over my head. Here in UK we write the date 14.3, not 3.14 :?

One thing is certain: if you put it in ISO date format nobody will know what you mean :smiley:

I have been running the April beta for about a week and am ready to report issues I have found that have not been discussed previously in this topic(two of my issues have been discussed).

I am in Cleveland Ohio, USA. The NOAA alerts are for locations far from me. Are all NOAA alerts being shown? I think the alerts should only be for the site’s location.

There is no flag for the USA. For a good while, the British flag was being used and now it is the Canadian flag. I have selected flag for your country.

This is a really nice template and easy to use.

Thanks very much.
