            Not much, you? I hope all is well with you and yours.

            I corrected the url, I think. :-)

              Yeah, all good here thanks. …Still lurking here as you can see.
              I’ve been looking around for a good (Similar) alternative to Wunderground… Looked at our other Amigo’s one - NOAA3 - and liked the layout of that, although yet to download and see if it will work okay here in Scotland?

              Any other ones you could say that are pretty neat, that are also worth considering?

                Yes, I like and use NOAA3 still. Jeff’s weather module seems to be pretty popular. Have a look at that one. I use my own weather module mostly, MMM-BMW-DS. It uses the DarkSky API. I wanted something completely different in layout and appearance. Take a look if you like.

                    You take a module and then you take another module and then add them together. You should now have 2 modules. ;-)

                      Thanks, Yeah, I like the look and layout of your one, but, I need to fill in the left hand side void, so will go with NOAA3 and see if that works across the pond.

                      I’ve not used a weather Mod since WunderGround stopped, and have been using several other Mod’s over time, but miss having the weather there as before.

                      I tried doing a search on here for 3rd party modules to see what is new, and which one’s members are looking at the most, and this thread came up in the search… (possibly because you have a link for 3rd party modules within?) clicked on your3rd party module link, and that is when I noticed it was an old one.

                      —Just a thought you may consider?.. Seeing as your ‘‘How To’’ threads are popular amongst the new members, would it be an idea to have a pinned post of all your ‘‘How To’s’’ ? One pinned post, with named links to all your tutorials? " How to Tutorials - For absolute beginners"

                      Then lock the post so it does not become cluttered with questions? … Just a thought.

                      So @Mykle1 how do you add modules?

                      Hey up Amigo… How the hell are you? This place would be awfully quiet without your banter. … I’m sure your NOAA3 will be a good fit in my void :-D

                        That would be up to the administration of the forum. However, thank you for your vote of confidence, bro. :thumbsup:
