Maybe off topic but I don’t know where else to ask.
My template has gone into a coma.
It’s a bit mysterious - Wunderground reports offline on the map, but in “My Devices” reports online.
Graphs and data are still being updated on Wunderground.
In the template, “Stalled” is reported.
Is there anything else I can do other than wait for Wunderground to return to normal?

I myself will acquire a GW1100 and install it a.s.a.p. to try to switch from WU-download to Ecowitt-custom upload .
Wim
P.S. Sadly it affects all users with this problem as the graph (history) data from WU seems also stalled.
Yes, I only have 1 WU account with 1 weather station
And my station is still showing on the map with the current temperature - see attached.
Other stations in my neighborhood appear online, so the problem is obviously not limited geographically.

Same for my off-line stations
Other stations in my neighborhood appear online, so the problem is obviously not limited geographically. MogensAlso not the device type which is uploading as ecowitt wf and meteobridge both have on-line and on-line stations. Also not the WU-API usage, my "off-line" stations use the same API's as the on-line stations use.
Wim
Today WU reports that my weather station is online.
Data from yesterday, when the station was reported offline, is obviously intact.

Next chapter in the series:
Today WU again reports that my weather station is offline on the main page.
And today it looks a little more serious - there are no graphs and no data is reported.
But in “My Devices” the station is reported online.
The station is still sending to WeatherCloud, MetOfficeWOW, PWSWeather and AWEKAS, so I have reason to believe WU is still receiving data as well.
Unfortunately, WU is the supplier of data for my template.
Seems to having massive problems today, far more then yesterday.
If you have a “rebadged” Ecowitt 2900 console, you could try to acquire an Ecowitt GW1100 on amazon
Same device is rebadged as DP1500 by Froggit Froggit Wetterstationen Shop - DP1500 PRO Wi-Fi Wetterserver USB-Dongle
Be aware that the GW1000 should use the same sensor frequency as your station, mostly 868Mhz in europe.
That way your console can continue to upload to WU, but the small GW1100/DP1500 allows uploading to your own website also.
This allows also a higher frequency of refreshing your data.
@ALL: The 2900 console manual also shows how to instructs the console to do a custom upload to your own server.
No need to have a GW1100/DP1500 for that.
Also the “Ecowitt-matrix” at MUST READ - Ecowitt/Fine Offset + clones WIKI,sensor compatibility,firmware... list that as an option.
So you can use WU for history and graphs and use “custom upload” for the realtime data.
=> https://pwsdashboard.com/documentation2012/42_ecowitt.pdf
But I think @mogens already uses the custom upload for Awekas, so in that case another “glass-less” console such as the GW1100/DP1500 is needed.
Wim
Thank you very much for the recommendations.
I will give WU a try and see what happens.
If things do not go well within a reasonable time, I will consider following your suggestions.
Mogens
I found the solution in the thread that Wim refers to
https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=44423.0
“WU seems to have made a change and no longer accepts your WU password for upload of conditions. You have to use the device key (shown in the Devices section in WU) instead. I made the change, and my station resumed reporting today. . it had died at 9am PT yesterday.”
I made the change and now my station is online with WU after being offline for a few days.
Now I just have a mystification with graphs in my template. It looks like the future is being predicted. I wonder if it will be fixed at midnight.
Mogens
Fix: the graphs have fixed and now only show the data actually received today
