Hi all,

just a short into from me here. I'm Chris, 39, from Wachtendonk, in the very far west of Germany. I'm currently setting up the relaunch of Wachtendonkwetter http://www.wachtendonkwetter.de/template, which I'm planning to publish in early 2018.

I had a Vantage Pro 2 + Meteohub + Typo3 setup going from early 2012 to late 2014, when lightning fried my station. 10m metal poles are cool for exact wind readings, but ... you get the point. Days after relaunch with a new station, my Meteohub failed and I was fed up with the whole weather thing.

Now I finally felt like setting up something new and I'm currently running a Vantage Pro 2 + Meteobridge + Meteotemplate setup. While the Meteobridge was a pain to set up, the template has been working like a charm since day one.

Thanks to Jachym and everyone who helped me with the setup and customization process.

Cheers
Chris

Hello Chris,

Welcome to the forum.
Cool site. I see you removed the language selector, was it on purpose ?
I guess I'll have to learn German then...

Cheers,

Hello Pol-Brieuc,

the site is still experimental and I haven't published it yet. I took it apart and kept what I wanted. Somewhere in the process the language selector died because of how it would always sit in my site logo. The mobile page still has it. I think I'll bring it back once the page is public, so hold your efforts of learning German. :lol: :D
