      @Saabman Thanks for sharing your experience ! I will absolutely take your suggestion and start poking around. As I’m new to MM, I wanted to get an operational dashboard up and running and now that I have, I can go and see if I can get WU to work as you’ve suggested.

      My current workaround to get my weather station data into MM is via Home Assistant (HA). I have a plug-in for HA that brings WU data into my HA dashboard. I’m using the MMM-HomeAssistant module to push that over to my MM dashboard.

        @sdetweil Sorry but the new API is free at all. Look at the german FHEM group. I use it there and it works absolutely perfect. Here is only the changed API the problem for the module. They have all written in Perl. Unfortunately I can’t really program it to work.

          It’s nice to find some guys with the same problem.
          My Son showed me yesterday a little bit about programming - but without any knowlege about programming it’s not easy.
          For my weatherstation (Froggit WH4000ws, same as ELV WS980 and Fine Offset WH2350) are two ways possible - direkt from the station oder via a provider (Wunderground, Wethercloud and Ecowitt, WOW).
          It would be nice to have a working solution.

            One way I forgot.

            Upload the data to openweathermap and use a module it is working with, but I was unable to connect my weather station to openweathermap.

              @chanster Thats one way to get around it.

              Ive just been having a look at it this evening. I found the new API Documentation https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KGb8bTVYRsNgljnNH67AMhckY8AQT2FVwZ9urj8SWBs/edit

              I punched my details in along with my API key just into my browser and it returned the data in JSON format which looked good so it shouldnt take too much to modify it to work again.

                  @c1olli I Was looking through the MMM-wunderground.js and relised it handles forecast and current weather. Unfortunately I havent found any screen shots of what the module looked like before the changes. Is it worth trying to mod what is there or just build something new.

                  Does any one have a screen shot of what it looked like??

                      cool,

                      I found some more info about the module and screen shots etc.

                      https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/128/weatherunderground-currently-hourly-daily-configurable?page=1

                      That will help piece it all back together

                          OK Ive had a bit of a play with it today and Ive had “some” success.
                          Screen Shot 2021-01-03 at 22.21.22.png

                          The sunrise/set is broken the icons are broken no rain data (which doesnt seem to be in the original any way) and no forecast.

                          But it does give current Temp, Humdity and the wind direction icon works.

                          I haven’t looked at the forecast stuff yet. Just commented it all out for the moment.

                          If you want to have a play clone the Develop branch https://github.com/saabman/MMM-WunderGround/tree/Develop

                          git clone --single-branch --branch Develop https://github.com/saabman/MMM-WunderGround.git

                          copy the Config from the readme.md and add your PWS and API key and it “should” give you something.

                            That’s a good beginning :D
                            At the moment I have to install MM new, because the update failed and the system was stuck.
                            I will test it when MM ist working again.

                                I did it like it is written in the MM manual.

                                git clone && npm install
                                

                                But I saved the MM folder with all my settings.

                                  @c1olli try my upgrade script, from here
                                  https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

                                  I think u will need to use force as a parameter, (instead of apply) unless u copy back the saved mm.

                                  u said it was broken… what was the prior results? black screen? won’t start?

                                    My plan was to install all modules and then copy the config.js back.

                                        It’s too late - I’m working for it for a few hours now and I formatted the SD card, new rasbian…
                                        But thanks for help.
