I am trying to figure out how to use Weather Display Live. I am lost in how to do it. I have read through a lot of post on this forum and still do not understand how to do it. I feel like a idiot because I can not figure it out. I am getting frustrated at the whole situation. Any help would be great.
As you didn’t provide a website link I do want to make sure you are running Weather Display as your weather station software as you do have to be running WD to use WDL…
If you are and are having just a problem with WDL then please post a URL to your WDL location so we can look closer…
I am running Weather Display along with Weather Display live. All I am trying to do is get it to display on my homepage. My homepage is www.chucksndweather.bravehost.com.
If there is anything else you need to know please let me know. Thanks for the help.
unfortunatly trying to check you page out 403 Forbidden! Authorization is Not PossibleThe owner of this website is not allowing authorization to visitors.
We need to get visitor access first
Try it again. It is just a basic template as of now. I am new at this and trying to figure it out. Sorry about not having the info you need. If you need anything else please let me know.
I viewed the URL you provided however it contains none of the code required for WDL to work…
What was the name of the file that you uploaded from the unzipped WDL download? By default it is named index.html IIRC however your index file is not that file…
I am confused about all this. Maybe I should forget about it. Is there files I need to upload to my webpage from WDL. This stuff is just driving me crazy. I know that the Index.htm is the wrong file. My address has changed to www.chucksndweather.info. I will get back with you if I have any other questions.
If this is the first time creating a website there will be some hurdles to overcome i am sure that with some patience you can get this going with help from the users of these forums…
It can also be a help to those trying to help you if you placed your website address, location and station type in your Forums profile for reference.
All that I am waiting for is my new registration number for WDL so I can use it on my homepage. So basically I am at a standstill for now. If I have anything else I will give the forum a shout.
I believe I found the problem. I chose a template to use for my website and everytime I publish my website my index.html file gets overridden the index.html file from the template I chose. I have no idea how to delete the template of my site. I posted the problem to there forums to see how to do that. I have the files that I need in my website directory and when I click my site WDL comes up. But like I said when I go to publish my site my template takes over my site. I will keep you updated.
Are you saying to rename the index.html file from HDL. For instance indexlive.html or whatever. I wrote to bravenet to see if there is anything I or they can do to delete the template. I am slowly learning to do this stuff. It gets frustrating at times though. I folks are a great help and have a lot of patience. I really appreciate it.
Chuck just rename the index.html file that you upload for WDL to anything but index.html that will still allow it to work, though you will have to go to the actual address, and not be overwritten by the bravenet index file…
I went ahead and did that and it worked. But one problem it is not updating properly. I am assuming I need to go into one of the files and edit it or something. Here is the link now http://www.chucksndweather.info/Displaylive.html . I will get with my wife and work on my main page so I will have a couple of pages or so. Thanks for all the help.
your clientraw.txt file is not updating http://www.chucksndweather.info/clientraw.txt
is WD set to update and upload that file (it uploads via the clientrawrealtimeftp.exe program)
