Xoapweather Radar?

by **glamdring** on Thu Feb 03, 2005 3:57 pm

Is anyone else having problems getting the radar image with Xoapweather. All I get is a big ? on all my locations. I checked the variables.xml file and did not find the radar variable. Has something changed?

If nobody else is having this problem, would someons zip up a xoapweather plugin directory and post it or email it to me. I downloaded KISS skin and the variable is the same as mine and it does not work either. I must have a old plugin or something.

I think the weather cahnnel XML feeds the plug-in uses have been up and down recently. I was seeing the same problem for a few hours yesterday- now it all works again.

If you really feel you need to re-install the XoapWeather plug-in you can get it here:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xoapweather/xoapweather1.1.zip?download

the instructions for configuring it are in the KISS readme here:

And just FYI, the radar images are part of the data feed, you won't find them in the plug-in image cache.

I think I found my problem. Initially I added my locationa nd everything worked great, but I reloaded the plugin last night and noticed the I had to select the radar image to show for each location. That is very handy, but I don't remeber ever doing that before. Once the radar image was selected it worked like a charm.

P>S> My wife love the KISS skin. You rock BaddaBing.
