CUtils 6.18.3

Post by AndyKF650 »

Hi Hans

The upgrade version seems to function well, certainly I can see the Top10 record for the current long dry spell and all the other customisations on my site work with no issues.

I am not sure about the third party weather forecast with YourWeather, I tried changing the CUtils.ini as suggested and ran the cmd website but it did not work. On looking at the YourWeather website Jersey Channel Islands is not listed so I reverted to SpotWX and accepted all the cookies.

One final point is that it seems you did not find a solution to the scatter chart wind direction in the ExtraSensors chart. Oh well who needs east and West cardinal points anyway :groan:

Hi Andy,

Beside setting the forecasttype as I indicated, for the YourWeather type also requires the seven day forecast URL (similar to the five day forcast URL forpwsFWI) which you need to get at the YourWeather site (or tameteo.nl of you are Dutch etc..., per language another URL exists).

And for the scatter chart: I did not look at it to start with so it has not been fixed yet. Future work ;)

I'm having the same issue with YourWeather.co.uk as Andy.

I have included the 7 day forecast :
[Forecasts]
ForecastSystem=YourWeather
SevenDayPredictionURL=https://www.yourweather.co.uk/weather_N ... 34431.html
Flushed the cache - rerun website generatot but it still gives me SpotWx!

I am using the URL shown in my previous post - is that the correct URL or should I be using something different?

Your URL is not correct. It must be something like:

Code: Select all

SevenDayPredictionURL=http://api.tameteo.nl/index.php?api_lang=nl&localidad=aaaa&affiliate_id=xxxx
This is the one for me, for the language NL. You will have to login at yourweather.uk (see wiki and follow the instruction) and do it yourself for your location.

Sorry Hans,

I realised that the URL must be wrong - but it has taken me two hours to get the correct API from thir website due to it not recognising my account - but not letting me create one that seems to work! Once I had sorted that out it works as expected!

Hi Hans

Well after a bit more trial and error I managed to get the 7day forecast from YourWeather to work and also I found a method of getting a local to me page from MeteoRed onto my list of Global sites.

By degrees my site changes and more information is available. :D
