Forecast block not populating

Post by Lewiston » Sat Jan 13, 2018 11:24 pm

I installed the forecast block earlier this week. To date it has not populated with data. Today I renamed the files in the forecast/cache folder. The current.txt was re-created shortly after being renamed.

Based on the error in the console it seems like you entered some strange things in the Forecast block setup, in particular with regards to quotation marks.

Please note, when I say for example:

use "wu" for weather underground

The "wu" is in quotes only to show that this is the exact phrase to enter, but what you need to enter in such case is simply

wu

not

"wu"

Could that be the problem?

It seems like you have not entered a default forecast provider, or the one entered is not available. I can see the forecast if I change the provider.

Thanks for the heads up. Should be working now. I had a typo.
