The "Render Meteogram" feature is not rendering wind direction and cloud cover.

Thanks, I'm aware of that and I intend to fix it in future versions. Although rendered meteogram for yr.no will lack cloud coverage since they are not providing it through api.

I'm not sure what that means exactly. Is there anything instead of the widget (icon, empty space)? Can the weather be refreshed with "Reload" button inside expanded weather widget?

And if you expand the widget (by clicking on it) and click on the left bottom text (changes to "Reload" on hover)... does that bring the weather data on the screen?

Did you find any way to show the weather data again? E.g. removing and adding the widget? Or it just stopped showing anything after one reboot and there is no weather data visible since?

First, thanx for this great extention, being now installed by default on my Netrunner/Manjaro system.
I have one simple suggestion - besides yr.no and owm, can you add as provider, if it is possible, also weather.com - being used by default on google weather page, google now launcher on android, yahoo and more.
Thanx in advance.

Linux is so simple operation system, but you must be a genius to understand its simplicity.

Thanks for your feedback! I guess I can add more providers... I was planning the yahoo one. I'll add more (e.g. weather.com) but it will take time as I have plans with other widgets, too :-).

Great, to hear that, as to me weather.com gives the most accurate temperature info. Thanx once again.

 Location Problem

Hi, I have one problem with every one of the Weather widgets on KDE, none of them will find me. I am located in the US, Mississippi, and entering my zip code, or even the in town NOAA weather station ID, returns only European stations. I don't even know where to start asking where to start. I mean usually I figure it's something I've done, and it may be, but how could all of them return the same stations, but they all (mostly) use the same search program so I just don't know. Can you give me any help?

Thanks

Hi, I'm not sure I can help you as you probably tried all what I'm going to suggest. Probably the only way to find your location is here:
http://openweathermap.org/find
...for OWM provider and here in search bar:
http://www.yr.no
...for yr.no provider

If these are not returning expected result maybe you are entering invalid data (my zip code was also not found) so I suggest to find your place on maps.google.com, copy the name to the search bar in OWM or yr.no site and hope for the best :). But it should find anything since it has found little villages in Czech Republic...

 Reload partly incorrect

 
 by pmendl on: Jan 23 2016  
Score 50%

I use dual boot Linux/Windows 7 if it matters. After reboot into linux the data shown are incorrect (probably until next regular reload - did not check, just today noticed the behavior), and last reload time displays 8309m ago. However hovering mouse pops up correct data (cloud cover, temperature). As well clicking on the gadget to display yr.no forecast gives proper (current) forecast timeline. Nevertheless 8309m ago is again displayed in the lower left corner. Hovering the mouse turns this to "Reload" button, however clicking it does not change the last reload time figures, neither does it change the main gadget displayed values.

Maybe it really corresponds with the time skew related to win/linux dual-booting. You should set your time to "local" in your linux distro so that both windows and linux is setting the same time in bios. Anyway it looks like you are using an old version of Weather Widget because of the big number of "minutes ago". The newer versions are using also days and hours.

 Good app but can be made better: some issues

 
 by bhlevca on: Jan 24 2016

Goon app but I have Three issues:
1) If you mix yR with OWN entries then the yR entry will not display below the map the temperature evolution from 0 to 24 for each day (vertical). however, the OWN entry shows that.
2) There is no way to set the start time. It appear to always shows the UTC time, which may be good for Europe, but not for other time zones
3) It show the weather forecast for the next days but no details for the current day.

Other than that I like the app and it had good potential. I think that fixing these things is more important than adding new sources.

Hi! Thanks for your feedback! I agree bug fixing should be preferred.

ad 1)
This looks like a regression. Please try the latest version (I've now released 1.6.2)

ad 2)
Start time and overall time management should be fixed in this version, too. Please try and report back :). Still for yr.no provider there is no way showing really current weather in meteogram because they only provide weather forecast starting 1-3 hours in the future. Open Weather Map should be fine though.

ad 3)
Under the map on the left there is a "today" column with today temperatures. The current weather conditions are listed in widget tooltip and also partially in meteogram. But maybe you meant showing more info inside expanded plasmoid under the meteogram?

Hi

I had to compile myself (from github) and install it. The one which was installed from the plasma repository is possible that was not replaced.

It would be good if you can stick somewhere the version number as I had no clue what version I was testing.

1) Fixed.
2) Fixed. The OWM does not offer cloud and wind info
3) Yes I meant in the expanded plasmoid. Also Wind, humidity etc would be good. In addition OWM does not print the Name of the location but just a number, which is annoying

Also, It would be good (if sources permit) to be able to select current/day forecast , 2 day forecast or extended (7 days) forecast

Thanks for retesting and suggestions.

Yes, this is known plasma bug. Hopefully will be fixed soon (updating through "Get new widgets").

I'll add some version info next release.

ad 2)
I'm working on it :)

ad 3)
I'll try to stick the missing current weather conditions inside expanded plasmoid.

The idea is that all weather info (current, 2 day and long term) is showed at once in expanded plasmoid. Or did you mean showing e.g. current + 2 more days right inside panel?

Yes, inside this panel it would be good to have detailed current conditions: temp, wind, humidity, pressure and + 2 days forecast, but probably with less info because it is not available

Great work.
