station Status

[androroz]

Hi all! The "station Status" block does not work, it shows OFFLINE, I set different times in the settings, there is no Online. What to do? Soft Weather Display...

What is the url of your site?

I'd say the problem is not in the block, but you have not configured ( or at least not configured correctly ) how to send data to meteotemplate.
If I'm not wrong, weather display should have an option to send data directly to the api.php script of meteotemplate.
If this is the case you have nothing to do in mateotemplate ( meteotemplate is already 'configured' to receive data via the api.php script ) but only in weather display, in his own control panel ( there you have to set the url of the api.php script, which in your case should be: https://www.us5wac.com/api.php, but I never used weather display, so can't be more precise ) .

P.S.
There's one thing you should do in meteotemplate, is create the cache directory in the root directory of meteotemplate ( that seems missing in your site ), this directory is needed by api.php ( and in cache/apiLog.txt you will find lot of useful information on the data received )

Hi, davidefa!

I have configured WD to transfer data to MT, I am sending two screenshots(file), please check. The Status block is still Offline. Something is wrong, apparently the path to api.php is incorrect. Check it out using FileZilla. Sorry to bother you, the forum remains. Merry Christmas!

Ok, downloaded weather display:
- in the weather display control panel click on the meteotemplate icon

1) set update password ( the meteotemplate update password ) and url of the api.php script on your meteotemplate site ( which is https://www.us5wac.com/api.php )
2) set the update rate you prefer and enable the job
3) click on the test/update button and verify on the meteotemplate site that your data is received ( https://www.us5wac.com/cache/apiLog.txt contains a description of what is received )

Disable the ftp job you set ( it is not configured correctly )
