Current readings block only displays Celsius

Post by aznetcowboy » Mon May 07, 2018 4:54 pm

I like the "current" block but I only get Celsius reading, not Fahrenheit which is what I want. Is there a way to accomplish this or is this a block that only displays in Celsius?

Display units are set in the Main Setup! Look in the section labeled Units

In the Main Setup Units section, both the "Database units" and the "Webpage default displayed units" are set to Fahrenheit. However, I see under Normal's section that the "Precipitation normals" is reset to "C" even after I set it to "F" and do a save.

Okay, I'm not sure what happened here, but now it is displaying correctly. The only thing I changed was the "Precipitation normals" back to "F"

Ah, Ha. Now I know what's going on with the current conditions displaying Celsius. It is Firefox's Quantum. They just did an upgrade to version 60 and now the icons display okay, but the current conditions are still displaying Celsius. With Chrome the current conditions display Fahrenheit. Looks like more work for Mozilla.

That is very odd because the units are handled by server, not browser?!

Also one thing I am thinking is if he set the main setup to "C" in the main setup then his datadase may be also be set to "C" if he wanted "F" instead of "C". May need to start all over with a new database but am not sure that is his problem with limited details.
