Interestingly, I talk to babies like they are adults. And my cat. I can't really do the coochee coo talk.

The most important thing you need is the target. An element on the page with id="weather"

It cold be in you side tables, headers, footers, template, whatever. If its in the side tables, the weather plugin has to run after side tables or the element won't be there to target

I was just wondering what the frequency was out of. As in, when you put a number what is the highest frequency it can go to?

[Wormopolis]

Well you get it too high and you won't be able to tell the difference. It defaults to 24 hours, one hour I know would work, but fractions it would likely round to. 0 and kill it

Hey I was just wondering as I had a think. Would there be anyway to make an option to include an upper and lower temperature range and the weather picks a number out of those two variables to act as a temperature?

[Wormopolis]

would the temperature be the same the entire day as well?

[Boy_Wonder]

Yes ideally for simplicity

Any news on this Wormopolis? Because I was seriously coming to ask the same thing.

I put it on the back burner and it faded from memory. I never got bumped again after that. I will see what I can fit in this weekend.

Im attempting to also make it where the time of day will affect the temperature as well. so you set a low and high, and depending on the time of day it will fluctuate probably 10% of the number it chooses from between them. just gotta figure out how I want to do the math.

[Boy_Wonder]

This was exactly the type of thing I was looking for but I didn't want to suggest it incase it was too complex! I also didn't want to bump as I knew you were busy working on other codes

[Wormopolis]

In actuality I am working on other codes, but occasionally I have to stop and step away in order to figure out how to solve something. I do the smaller code projects in the meantime.

you will notice I dont get involved with the bigger projects. like creature encounter or cards against humanity. both concepts I was drawn towards, but had already begun battleship.
