I know that the weather conditions disappeared due to an error during the latest upgrade, but are there any plans to bring them back? It was very interesting to see what the weather is where our members are posting from.
-
Hmmm, I just noticed they were gone. When did this happen?
....and on a day where I actually got up to 98F today - the warmest day of the year and it happened in September! Three degrees shy of a record high, too.
-
I believe it's been gone for almost a month now. I think they would have fixed it already. But I'm still hoping they'll bring it back.
-
I'd like to see them back as well.
-
Martin will have to look into restoring it. Obviously, the forum upgrade disrupted this item, but I don't know anything else beyond this fact.
-
Restored

Err well I think they are restored. Let me know if your conditions look odd :P Thanks
-
Restored
:clap: :thumbsup: :dance:
Thank you very much!!
-
They look correct, Martin. Thanks for restoring this mod. B)
-
Ooh, I didn't even know this existed~ (Well, because I wasn't here!)
Thank you! n__n

Reviving an old topic...
The weather conditions box has lately been showing a broken link rather than the conditions. Is there anything that can be done about that?

I don't see this problem on my end. :no: Likely the deal is that the page will "time out" when it loads, showing a bunch of images that look broken but in fact just haven't loaded.
This happens with a lot of webpages, so I don't think it's a problem that can be fixed. Just try reloading the page. ;)
-
Yeah... it works about half the time right now. Anyway, thanks for looking into it! :biggrin:
-
Hmm every so often a new image is generated with updated conditions. It typically happens once an hour so. Keep me updated
-
I haven't had a problem either. Then again, I rarely visit more than twice a day. And even then it's usually only for a second. :)

You mean... the graphic actually updates based on what the weather is at the current time? I had no idea that's what it was for! :devil:
-
What happened to the weather display tab? I want to add weather forecast graphics under my username like everyone else here has. I can't find the area where you put the weatherunderground info anymore.
-
It's called a weather sticker.. should be able to make one on their website :unsure:

Are you talking about the Weather Underground stickers in everyone's signatures? Or are you talking about the current weather conditions shown to the left side of every post under every username? If it's the first question, then you need to go to Weather Underground's website to make one. If it's the second question, then you need to enter your location in your profile information and save it. You don't have a location entered in your current profile right now.

No, not the signatures. I'm referring to the weather forecast thingy underneath your avatar.

You need to go to your profile settings, enter your location, and save it. Yours is currently blank.

kk. That was simple but why was there no mention about this previously? It would be nice if there was a notice in the forum profile settings next to location: "Fill in if you want your conditions to be displayed", or somewhere along that line.

There was notification of this when the feature launched like two years ago IIRC :unsure:

Martin made a whole topic about it on March 13, 2010 when it was introduced:

I wanted to update you on this.... The modification that makes the weather icons is very touchy. SMF has a default profile input for location that the modification uses. This means I cant edit it to say that it will be used for weather conditions. Perhaps in the future I can look into changing this
