nice mod ;)

see at the bottom on my board
http://graphogames.fr/skiniser/

i change a little your weather code with an other script (available in world)

For change the location :

Find :
true&locationId=FRXX0076&tempUnits={L_DEGREE}&country=FR"

Just replace the location ID (number between &) and country code "FR"

Example for chicago :
true&locationId=USIL0225&tempUnits={L_DEGREE}&country=US"

the language key {L_DEGREE} is celcius or farenheit included in common.php from your language

language/en/common.php

Code: Select all

'DEGREE'					=> 'f',
language/fr/common.php

Code: Select all

'DEGREE'					=> 'c',

should be possibly.

If you can do it I'll definitely add it to the mod :)
I add this testwise to ucp (using cpf), so each user can fill out his zip, town, state or country to show a four day weather-forecast in it's own profile.

It uses a complete other api, so it seems, that it be another mod. It's a very beta and uses google weather api. it's not official documented, but it shows currently all global , available weather status and the main engine works > 90% . Results are cached, also it have language detection and auto switch from F to degree celsius (both based on location you have). This time i force degree celsius bcs. of testing possibilitys. Less time these days, so it's more a hobby. I report back, when all is stable.

You're right... Seems like is should be another mod. It sounds great and I can't wait to test it.

No time soon... That I'm aware of.

Another option is to use the code from Weather.com (supports other countries).

Follow the same install instructions... Except in the Do It Yourself part (at the very bottom of the install instructions), use the code from Weather.com in the weather.html file.

When you download the mod, the manual installation instructions are in the file titled "install.xml". I just downloaded it for verification and it's there.

Open the file in FireFox ;)
