"windy" and "countDown" blocks quit

[WyoDog]

The countDown block has been working correctly. I changed the title today and the block quit displaying. The frame is there but nothing else.

At the same time, I added the windy block. Again, the frame displays in the correct location, but no map.

I have the latest versions of both blocks
countDown v 3.0
windy v 1.1

I have deleted both blocks from the home page and added them back with same result. No errors but nothing in the frames.

any ideas?

I checked your site and both blocks are empty for sure. Weird. Did you check with ftp to be sure windyBlock.php and windyConfig.txt are both in the correct directory on your site?

Hi,
you updated blocks - something you should never do unless you are using the latest template version. You are two versions behind, it is emphasized in the wiki and on the downloads and blocks page that unless you are using the latest version you must keep your page as it is - it will work, but it has to stay as it is, new blocks are often incompatible with older versions - which is this case.

Thanks, Jachym. I guess it's time to upgrade.

I believe that if it ain't broke don't fix it. I guess that it's now broke.

I hope the update went well. I have several custom changes that I have made to several blocks. Sometimes it is hard to remember them all until after the update when it all reverts back to the way it was.

Hi Ken
I have made some changes to the menu on home page. I am trying to figure out the easiest way to apply those changes to the new versions before I do actual upgrade.
