[quote]I just had one last thing to say on this. I don't think there is one skinner here that doesn't comprehend the problem is with Weather.com changing their script. Which they have a right to do. I have read every post and every thread. I see most of the Skinners only agreeing about where the problem lies. Sure its not Wincustomize/Stardocks problem....but this is where the fine line has been drawn. The Skinners are asking Wincustomize/Stardock to help find a solution. Te

[quote] We are in the process of producing a replacement gadget. That widget was provided as a sample of what could be done. It is not "part" of DesktopX functionality but we understand people like it. The new version will use the SD accuweather feed (and have the requiered logo and links). It will not be editable by the user .[/quote] what a big help for us!
[quote who="adni18" reply="10" id="2297683"]Instead of giving to the authors of WinCustomize some help with the weather widgets, you have decided to delete all of them from WC! Is this a solution? Unbelievable! Does anybody cares about the thousand users who used to have them in their computer desktop? It is obvious that WC doesn't care with this solution. In the other hand, these 10 days period until you start to delete all the weather widgets from WC ar
[quote who="Philly0381" reply="1" id="2297454"]It is unfortunate that this has happened, but it's what needs to be done. If any of the skinners needs a tester of thier weather widgets I have XP Home 32 bit and Vista Home Premium 64 bit and will be happly to test for you.[/quote] Yep I'm ready for the tests too... xp pro32/vista ultimate32 ...
Currently, in the four dxbased gallery we have only ONE working weather gadget ... THATS the BIG trouble now.. I know, sViz hardly work on put ID/KEY/LOGO/LINKS.. to use TWC feed..but useable for users? dunno.... I'm not seen any chance to fixes... What u need Zu? Whats your answer,opinion,result.. for users, and for dx skinners...

SD not released template accuwether widget for reskin/rework... Those registrations thingy not will work... I think I will remove all my custom dx widgets, cos no other way now... [e digicons]:'([/e]
[quote] http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/I would expect this link to fail in the near future as weather.com sees teh activity. Just sayin'[/quote] No .. Zu, you need some some optimism.. Xml WILL WORK alltime [e digicons];)[/e]
[quote] Certainly http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/ from neophil78. This way is much friendly than registration on TWC and entering ID and Key. The other weather widgets/gadgets was already updated and reuploaded. [/quote] ok thanks I will use this method too [e digicons]:)[/e]
[quote] Seems it was much greater than when America was discovered by Columb! Now I already finished the update of my widgets/gadgets. No any ID and KEYS! No any problems with license![/quote] Vadim What method use on update? xml feed?
[quote]I really don't understand why so many people are bashing Stardock over this one. First and foremost, Stardock already did what they could when they partnered with Accuweather some time ago and *hosted* the weather feed themselves. This means Stardock is the company providing and paying for the bandwidth used by their Accuweather widgets, not Accuweather. Second, DX widget authors are the *only* people responsible for choosing to use
[quote] Fact - Weather.com changed their feed to get something back for the service they provide Fact - Every DX widgit that uses the weather.com feed needs to be updated to use the new feed URL (ID & key) Fact - Every DX widgit that uses the weather.com feed needs to be updated to use the logo Fact - Only the coder can do that update (especially because there is variation) Fact - Each coder can add the same code to allow input of each users feed ID<
[quote]Here's a quick and dirty how-to: First, subscribe to the Weather.com feed -- LINK When you get your confirmation email save the Partner ID code and License Key. Next: - Load DesktopX Builder - Before importing your widget, disconnect from/turn off the internet (unplug cable, etc.) - R-click on the DX Builder icon in your system tray and Import your widget - R-click on the
[quote] It comes from users creating weather widgets all based on the same code (by another user) that calls weather.com without a parnet ID and key.[/quote] yes... BUT DesktopX one of SD application Weather widgets and objects, really based martin's code.. Silica weather come with dx, I think this one Offical Stardock Weather widget ..and NOT work now... So we need SD and dx developer support in these days...
