Re: updated graphCombined block

Hi, when I check your site http://www.sunset-weather.com/template/indexDesktop.php, and check your 'offset' it's not 5 hours but 1 hour just like with me, (i put my cursor on midnight of a date, and it shows not 00:00 but 01:00). Also you should see, as you said the data when you hover over a graph...

Re: apiCache.txt keeps becoming corrupted

Changing the frequency for updating api.php has solved another issue. I had WD configured to send updates every 15 seconds for quite a while, and I had a problem with precipitation being carried over to the next day. It was easy to resolve by editing the 00:00:00 entry in the database, to set the ra...

Re: apiCache.txt keeps becoming corrupted

It appears that the frequency updates are sent to template/api.php will cause the template/cache/apiCache.txt file to become corrupted. I am running WeatherDisplay on my end, and had the update frequency set to 15 seconds. I noted that the apiCache.txt file was updating every 5 seconds on my site. I...

apiCache.txt keeps becoming corrupted

Having an issue where the database stops updating because the template/cache/apiCache.txt file becomes corrupted. This has been an issue in the past, but occurred very infrequently. The fix is to simply delete the file and the database again starts updating. This would usually happen no more than 2 ...

Tried in Chrome, Edge and Mozilla, with no result in increasing the size.

This is not an option with some hosting companies. I have the option to revert to PHP 7.x, but they will charge a "PHP7 support fee" that is greater than my monthly hosting fee.

At the time, he did not have a solution...

I agree, it looks like an SQL issue, as I did confirm everything else was updating, including the current conditions block in MT, and clientraw.txt.
