Ahhhh, thanks. I can live with it being temporarily down!

Same here.
I was worried since this afternoon because it stopped working. I thought i made some mistakes when i changed some things in my blog, but i can see that there are problems with foreca server... i'm reassured.
I temporary disabled weather plugin so all those error lines won't come up.

Foreca could have changed the way to diffuse weather informations, so the plugin doesn't work anymore. But it's just a supposition.
We will see in the next days if it will start working fine again...

I'm not getting those error messages, but the weather plugin isn't working for me either.
I thought it was because I upgraded to b2evolution 2.4.2 and just didn't notice that it wasn't working at the time.

It's not because you upgraded to 2.4.2. I upgraded too and weather plugin always worked until yesterday.
I think the problem is in foreca servers.

Uff!!!!!
What's happening to weather plugin? I'm going crazy trying to find a resolution.
Does anyone has some news about?

Hi all,
I'm also suffering at the loss of this awesome plugin and I can't wait for a fix. Hopefully this will be done soon.

I don't know if I *fixed* this, but I at least got it to work for me. Near the end of the _weather.plugin.php file, there is a function "weatherXMLparse." In the section:
if (!isset($params['search'])) {
$this->xml_url ="http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/".
$params['ID'].
"?cc=*&prod=xoap&dayf=2".
"&unit=".
$params['units'].
"&par=1016702634&key=5dccb9f2a102af0d";
I removed the part after the ? that says "&prod=xoap" and everything is back to normal (I hope . . . so far . . .)

Great job moonchild!
I committed the fix to Sourceforge. The new version of the plugin is available through https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=160495&package_id=256690
Direct download: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/evocms-plugins/weather_plugin-2.3.1.zip?use_mirror=osdn
Thanks for sharing your solution.
Have a nice day

Hey Afwas,
Sweet. Your fix works like a charm.
Thank you very much :-)

Hi,
I am having the same probs as Hudson 2001 describes at the beginning of this thread. I have deleted the plugin and then downloaded and installed the one referred to by someone later in the thread, but it still doesn't work for me. Is anyone else having issues?
I someone able to help with fixing this plugin or maybe tell me what I did wrong? All I did was uplaod the php file to the plugins folder, installed via global settings, added my city Perth changed std to metric and selected smaller sized icon. I am running 2.4.5 (i think) - the current version with fantastico.
regards
amanda
Yes, same here. Looks like weather server (temporarily) down. So don't worry at this point. If it persists, there are other servers around, but that would require a little recoding.
Good luck
