Weather Generator [library support]

[♥ ℒʊ√ ♥]

scratchmod Change the colors for what? The weather generator, the time? Sorry, I'm confused. If it's for the Live Clock Plug in ~ I answered you ~ here ~.

I was actually wondering how to make the plug in appear within the confines of the sidebar? Right now its showing underneath it and without a background and since I am using clear images I seriously need the background.

Here's a link to my site: freebythestars.freeforums.net/ Any suggestions?

Do you have an element setup in the sidebar with id="weather"?

If you do, make sure the weather plugin happens after the side tables plugin


I can look closer when I get home

I'm pretty new to coding, but I didn't add anything to the table, if that's what you're asking. The side table plugin is set first on my list and whenever I try to expand the table, in hopes that the weather would be included, it stretched the table, but pushed the weather part down, as though it were part of a separate table.

[Wormopolis]

you currently have it as:


<div id="weather" class="container">
                       <div class="title-bar">
                           <h2>Weather</h2>
                       </div>
                       <div class="content pad-all cap-bottom">
                                                 
                       </div>
</div>



it should be more like:


<div class="container">
                       <div class="title-bar">
                           <h2>Weather</h2>
                       </div>
                       <div class="content pad-all cap-bottom">
                           <div  id="weather"></div>                      
                       </div>

</div>

It worked!

Thank you, I love the plug-in!

Just curious wormo but is there anyway that this could possibly have a bridge plugin or similar to allow it to use liveclock time to chose from night or daytime images?

To get it to show in the sidebar, I used

<div class="container">
<div class="title-bar">
<h2>Weather</h2>
</div>
<div class="content pad-all cap-bottom">
<div id="weather"></div>
</div>

</div>
in the "content" part of sidebar redux

it didn't work. the id above the content box is "weather". my forum is here. What did I do wrong?

Do you have weather plugin running after the side tables plugin?

I somehow missed this post...

It might take something like duplicating all your images and adding _night at the end of the file name.  Then choosing a time that defines "night". It would be a lot easier the tearing apart the structures that store images

[Boy_Wonder]

I have a night set of images already, just how would this be done?

[Wormopolis]

do they all have "_night" added to the end of their filename?

[Boy_Wonder]

-goes to check- Not yet, they're all in one folder called Night on my computer at the minute

[Wormopolis]

I cannot rewrite the code to accommodate someone wanting images kept in different folders or it will make the code stop working for everyone else that have filenames already setup for their images.

what I CAN do however, is make it where you can optionally check a box in the options and tell it a time frame for day vs night images and it will look for images with _night added to the end of them instead of what you have stored for the weather block. so it will look for sunny_night.jpg instead of just sunny.jpg

that way it wont mess up for someone who doesnt want time based images.


and before anyone asks, no Im not going to make it where you can have a different image show up for every second of the day. 2 images based on time is enough.

[Boy_Wonder]

Yep that works I can add _night onto the end of them
