Weather Icons showing Question Marks

Hello - The GK weather module that I have on a site is showing question marks in place of the icons. How do I fix. Its really urgent. Thanks.

John

Having same problem. Just started today.

Here is the site: http://www.lakecumberlandtourism.com
The weather module is at the bottom of every page.

Same problem here too, on 4 websites just now... ??????????? is it maybe this fast changing weather that bugged the module?


JA

Same problem. I believe it may have to do with a change to the Google weather API.

I did a test on a 1.6 installation and it only worked when the Yahoo weather API was selected.

Ah, thanks, I switched to Yahoo and the icon's are back. Only two day option with Yahoo, but a temporary fix until they get Google figured out.

I've figured out that the reason for icons not showing up is because of a change to the naming convention used by google weather.

I've edited the icons array with the url of the icons and I am having some luck with it. Once i've got it done I'll post what I have.

That's great! Thank you!

This if working on my sites right now, the code may need to be cleaned up as it directly linking to the icons, but i needed a quick fix. Not all icons are functional, but most of them should be.

In your helper.php look for the icons array and replace with

Code: Select all

      $this->icons = array(

         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_scatteredsnow-40.gif"  => array('chance_of_snow.png', 'chance_of_snow_night.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_snowflurries-40.gif"        => array('flurries.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_snow-40.gif"            => array('snow.png'),

         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_mist-40.gif"            => array('mist.png','mist_night.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_rain-40.gif"         => array('showers.png','showers_night.png'),

         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_thunderstorms-40.gif"    => array('thunderstorm.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_rain_snow-40.gif"       => array('rain_and_snow.png'),

         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_mostlycloudy-40.gif"   => array('mostly_cloudy.png','mostly_cloudy_night.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_cloudy-40.gif"          => array('cloudy.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_fog-40.gif"             => array('foggy.png','foggy_night.png'),
         "http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_smoke-40.gif"           => array('smoke.png','smoke_night.png'),

       );

Hello friend. How do you switch to Yahoo? I'm using the 1.5 version of GK4. Thanks for your help.

When do you think Gavick Team will update the module?

Hi

We are aware of this problem with Google Weather icons.
Soon it will be available a update to fix it.
Meanwhile, please use Yahoo source.

Cheers

I am also curious how to use Yahoo since I am running 1.5? Can you install the 1.6 mod into 1.5? Is it compatible?

Need help on this as mentioned in another post. Questionmark is showing up (at light rain), having GK Weather J 1.5 (V 1.2) installed.

I've check the current Google API data. Weather condition is:

<icon data="http://g0.gstatic.com/images/icons/onebox/weather_drizzle-40.gif"/>

I've checked the modules image folder. I haven't an image "Weather-Drizzle-40.gif) I've plenty of different .png's, but not this one.

Need urgent help please...

Update Please...........

You don't have this icons because we parse the image to different, when you check the helper.php file you will see the match array. Please update module to the new version, where you fix this issue for all icons that we find in google feed.

I've updated the module already.
