I'm in the final stages of releasing a new version of the weather module named 1.31. My principals goals for this release were
- to fix the few bugs discovered in 1.30 after release
- to include all the translation packs that I gathered
- to make as much as I can country data files
( today more than 250 have been done including nearly all that are on weather.com website)
The big missing country is Australia due to the fact that it is subdivided in provinces so I can't do it alone. I need some help.
Here is a list of new features extracted from the changelog :
- Added a spanish translation by Hache (www.dev-postnuke.com)
- Added a german translation by Juergen Hofmann
- Added an italian translation (TiMax - Winesalento)
- Added a nederlandese tranlation (Geert Janssen)
- Added a danish translation (made from a translation for weather 1.27 author unknown upgraded with the help of Rene' Sørup)
- Added lots of new countries including complete set of files for Canadian provinces (some files are users contributions, see files for the details)
- Corrected missing record for Canada, Nunavut in database
- Corrected incomplete path in pnuser.php and weather.class.php not working on some servers
- Added new block "cityweather" where you can choose the city at block creation. Runnig multiple instances of this block you can have as many weathers as you like on your website (warning : each block will need a connexion to MSNBC or weather.com to upgrade so beware the "time to cache" setting and in fact there is a limit in the number of city blocks anyway !!).In this version you must know the code for the city you want to choose, so go to MSNBC or weather.com, find the desired city and look for the code in the adresse bar of your browser.
- Added pntitle.php to give the page a meaningfull title if used with Joerg Napp's pnTitle hack available from http://lottasop...rceforge.net.
- Added display of barmeter variation as a little arrow
- Added display of latitude, longitude, sunset, sunrise (only works with weather.com, not MSNBC) if you want to deactivate some of these displays see comments in pnuser.php file
- Added unit m/s for windspeed display (suggested by Jacob Aulbjerg Nielsen because in denmark and i suppose in others countries this is the preferred unit for that data)
