it just showed up… like magic.

Are you saying it’s working now? I just copied your entry, put in my api key, and both fired right up for me

[popeye2002]

sadly no, only the forecast works, not the current weather :( that’s why jumped in this thread because it should work but the current weather does not so there may be a problem elsewhere. That’s where i don’t know where to begin to troubleshoot since it’s a brand new install.
BTW, I ran your current weather code for NY and that did not work either

wow… RESOLVED… smart me somewhere along the way I entered my location into the currentweather.js file… that was a mistake I made and I shall remember!! @Mykle1 Thank you for your patients and I give to you something to smile and laugh about… betting you may have touched something you shouldn’t have as well… but that was a tough lesson!

@hango DO NOT EDIT the module files…

edit the config.js and put setting in the module config block

{
    module: ???? ,
    position: .....  ,
    config: { 
        xyz: iiiii,   < ---- stuff goes here 
    }
}

the value in the config will replace the ones in the code

you NEVER have to edit the actual module source code

@hango in your post of 'config, you put it in the global section,

not in the little config:{} section related to each module

this is why u are having trouble…
