Hi,
Does anyone have problems with fcttext_metric string in wunder plugin.
It doesnt work for me, i get no response.

Thanks for your help.

Have you specified which day you want the data for?

That is, when you use that variable, there is a # placeholder. You should replace that with an actual number.

See: http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=928.msg7716#msg7716

Probably a good idea to watch the tutorial:

Yes I have replaced it and it turns back nothing, it was working before vox 2 fine.
Anyway the fcttext works fine, but I need it in metric.

It's not a VC2 bug (nor would that really make sense).

I have tested the variable {T#.fcttext_metric} with different locations and numbers, and they all work.

The best thing would be for you to post the xml for the command you are using. Maybe we can help to identify the problem.

You can also test using different locations.

Thank you for your help, it was location. Now is working fine when I changed the weather station to city airport.
It is strange that is wroking fine for non metric forcast at current location.

Thanks

It is strange that a European location would not return metric data, I agree, but it does seem to happen.

I notice that there is no metric forecast for Split, Croatia, for example. I sent a direct request using the Weather Underground website's API console (http://french.wunderground.com/weather/api/d/docs?d=resources/apigee-console), and the field for  "fcttext_metric" comes back empty. Here is part of the data:


{
 "response":  {
   "version": "0.1",
   "termsofService": "http://www.wunderground.com/weather/api/d/terms.html",
   "features":  {
     "forecast10day": 1
   }
 },
 "forecast":  {
   "txt_forecast":  {
     "date": "8:06 PM CEST",
     "forecastday":  [
        {
         "period": 0,
         "icon": "partlycloudy",
         "icon_url": "http://icons.wxug.com/i/c/k/partlycloudy.gif",
         "title": "Tuesday",
         "fcttext": "Partly cloudy. Lows overnight in the low 70s.",
         "fcttext_metric": "",
         "pop": "10"
       },
        {
         "period": 1,
         "icon": "nt_partlycloudy",
         "icon_url": "http://icons.wxug.com/i/c/k/nt_partlycloudy.gif",
         "title": "Tuesday Night",
         "fcttext": "Partly cloudy skies. Low 73F. Winds ESE at 15 to 25 mph.",
         "fcttext_metric": "",
         "pop": "10"
       },
        {
         "period": 2,
         "icon": "chancetstorms",
         "icon_url": "http://icons.wxug.com/i/c/k/chancetstorms.gif",
         "title": "Wednesday",
         "fcttext": "Partly cloudy early with thunderstorms becoming likely during the afternoon. High 77F. Winds SE at 20 to 30 mph. Chance of rain 100%.",
         "fcttext_metric": "",
         "pop": "100"
       },
       

This is the data that VC is accessing.

I'm glad you found another location that worked for you.
