      So I’m having a problem with the Weatherforecast module… It’s only showing 6 days even though I’m changing maxNumberOfDays in config.js AND weatherforecast.js…
      Image here: https://imgur.com/a/mVIg4 (Day is currently Monday, as confirmed by calender module).
      config.js file:

                      {
                              module: "weatherforecast",
                              position: "top_right",
                              header: "abcWeather Forecast",
                              config: {
                                      maxNumberOfDays: "7",
                                      location: "Melbourne",
                                      locationID: "2158177",  //ID from http://www.op$
                                      appid: "c55eb00ef13017f121a5081bba1dd384"
                              }
      
      

      The weatherforecast.js is the default one available (no edits).
      I also can’t get showRainAmount to work, but I HAVE changed the title (ABCWEATHER…). Thank you if you can help!!

        @Axnick9 not sure why you get even 6, from the api documentation the free version gets only 5 days http://openweathermap.org/price, so setting the forecast max number of days to a higher number will have no effect, because there is not enough data to display. Max number of days only ensures that not more days get shown

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          @strawberry-3.141 Could it be perhaps it shows the current days stats, then 5 days in the future? And is there any way to get around this without paying- perhaps a different service that offers the same thing? If not, all good!

              You could try another weather module in the meantime. There are many of them.
