I can guess AvgAbbr is average temperature, and the Maximum and Minimum are also temperature averages. So does abbr mean abbreviation? Just overly curious, that all.

What is AvgAbbr?
I see in the current conditions data windows shows four fields with Abbr, for example AvgAbbr. What does Abbr stand for? The only thing I can find when searching the Internet for Abbr is Abbreviation. If so, what are the fields AvgAbbr, MaximumAbbr, MinimumAbbr, and sdAbbr abbreviations for?

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
Update your language files via the Control panel, yours are outdated which is why it shows this. Or you did not select a language in the Main setup. These strings are supposed to be replaced by the real word (eg. avgAbbr = Avg)

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
I downloaded all the language file and ran the update via the control panel. However nothing happens. No flag in the upper left corner and no change in the language. I suspect one of the files needs to be updated, but I am not sure which one to go after.

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
I ran across this recently. If you are using WIN10 I.E. 11 it does not always save changes in Main Setup. I had to remember to only make changes in Firefox or Chrome. I am also using a WIN10 Developers edition so I don't know if it only pertains to my system. Just a thought.aznetcowboy wrote: ↑Sun Apr 29, 2018 8:52 pm I downloaded all the language file and ran the update via the control panel. However nothing happens.

Edit: One thing I just thought of is MS Edge which I almost never use. I do know Microsoft is pushing us to use
EDGE more but I just don't like it. I still have allot of software dependent on activeX which we are being pushed away from by Firefox and Chrome.

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
No matter what I have tried, it doesn't work. I was almost ready to try redoing the initial setup, but I was affraid if what I'd have to do to get my site up and running again.

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
I've started over I can't tell you how many times in the beginning. Just save all your settings. UA number, Lat-Long, and anything you see that needs remembering and erase the config.php. To be perfectly honest... most times I redid it I was wasting my time as main setup does a pretty good job. I just don't trust IE to do it for me anymore.
Edit: Looking at your site pretty quickly and not really reading back what your man issue is I don't see anything wrong and it looks pretty good to me. The only thing I see is your pulling watches/Warnings from 3 different source? Other than that it looks clean unless I'm missing something.
Ok reading up a bit I see what you mean. I did see abbr in the current and day light blocks. hmmm I don't know.
I see Jachym is already helping you with this.
Going through your site a bit more carefully I saw your "Near earth objects" block... when you try opening an event it opens and closes before you have a chance to read the event. Was using latest Firefox.

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
The flag issue is a header block issue. Try to just install only a new header block and edit Main setup again. Languages is beyond me as I've never had that issue. May be related to the header.php issue.aznetcowboy wrote: ↑Mon Apr 30, 2018 1:59 am The problem(s) are as follows:

I'm sure this has to do with the same error, but I sure aren't finding it and It is getting frustrating!
- Can't change (switch) languages
![]()
Most of these blocks are not intended to be modified outside of the main setup or as instructed in it's particular setup/config in php or txt format as alot of blocks are dependent on the api.php and the sql database. Changing one means having to change others which causes problems elsewhere.

I uploaded the original header.php file and it makes no difference. It was worth a try. Thanks for the suggestion.The flag issue is a header block issue.

In your case it may be wise to start over.
PS you don't have to start your MySQL over just the files

Re: What is AvgAbbr?
I finally decided it was time to reinstall. It went much quicker than I expected. Now everything seems to be working okay. 
Now the next thing to work on is the Meteotemplate signature banner.
