Hi Mike,

I noticed that on lines 133 and 149 you are missing a /. They should be </li>. I think your line 159 would then need to be commented out.

Regards,
Trevor

If I click the link on your site I get:

Code: Select all

https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/IBELLE57title=
So something goes wrong with your link buildup.

Note that two links before the href has no quotes at all.

The first suggestion I tried was Trevor and it worked straight away by changing lines 133 and 149 to </li>but also dazza had it in his example I am not sure what line 159 commented out means do I just delete that line out
Thanks for the help and encouragement Mike

Hi Mike,

To comment something out you just place <!-- in front and then close it out with -->. Refer to your line 152 for an example. It will then show in green. On looking at your page though, I think line 159 is closing out a line higher up in the code so if everything is working correctly then suggest leaving it as is.

Regards,
Trevor

That line looks like the problem..

The link doesn't have any quotes at the beginning or end.

I thought I had found the solution to my problem but when I looked at the details I couldn't see the relationship to what I was doing so please pardon my ignorance if I've misunderstood everything.

I've just got a new Curconsa PWS - unfortunately it only has a wifi link and so is not supported in the Cumulus MX list of supported PWS. No problem - I can connect it to Wunderground (which I have done successfully) and then I can set up the link to Wunderground in Cumulus MX and have my data downloaded back to my PC. Or so I thought. Unfortunately the documentation on Cumulus MX leaves a bit to be desired. Anyway, I scoured the web for literally hours and came across this forum entry. However on looking at the details I don't think it is referring to setting any parameters in Cumulus MX, which was what I though I had found originally. All I want to do it to be able to access NOAA reports etc in Cumulus MX by downloading my data from Wunderground but it seems impossible to do this even though the Cumulus MX 'sales pitch' seems to imply it can be done.

Is there any way you can enlighten me as to where I'm going wrong - am I trying to do the impossible or have I just not found the right bit of documentation yet?

Hi Bernard,

I am pretty sure Wunderground cannot be used as a source for CumulusMX and its reports.
So in short: yes, I think you are trying the impossible.
