Thanks again Lex.
How can I change the city at the lockscreen?

open and edit accuweather.js or Yahoo.js you can use which ever one you want

I used accuweather
// The location field should be a relatively machine-legible string
// if using the default, Apple/AccuWeather parser (originally from Leopard's Weather.wdgt)
var locale = "London, UK" /

I'm a bit confused. where is the yahoo.js file located? I didn't see it in the folder.
 
^
how do i choose one over the other? since both files are included..how do i disable accuweather and use yahoo weather?
 
Are you referring to the Breeze Theme or 4 day weather Theme

If it is the Breeze theme you will see the yahooweather.js when you open up the file

Sorry, I meant the 4 Day one. Normally, I would find the Private folder where it resides, but there is no Private folder to begin with. I also looked in the Lockbackground file, but found nothing regarding location.

It is in the Lockbackground.html

Look for this <head><title>weather</title></head>

About half way down

var locale = 'London, UK'

var iconSetWall = 'stardock'

var iconSetLock = 'stardock'

var enableWallpaper = true

var isCelsius = true

This uses accuweather
 
Hey Lexs, for the 4 day weather LS, do I change my location in the LockBackground.html? If so, what do I have to put? A weather code or just a zip code?

Also where in the html can I change it to 12hr format...I can't see where

Let me know, thanks man
 
Thanks Lex.

Didn't work for me when I put in my own city, country. I substituted London, UK with New York, US. I'll try something else.
 
which LS you guys talking about?

can't seem to get the 4day weather LS to work with my US location

Go here it uses Accuweather to find your code http://www.accuweather.com/

this will give you todays and the next 3days of weather

London and 2010 are written scripts

Which means your city will not show up

You need to Edit Lockbackground.htlm

Find this

<table style="position: absolute;top: 165px; left: 175px; width: 200px; height: 461px;"><tr valign="top" border="0" cellpadding="0"><td style="font-family: Helvetica; color: #silver;front-color: #eeeeee;
-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(rgba(0,0,0,1)), to(rgba(0,0,0,0)));
back: color: #e8e8e8; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 700; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000; text-align: center" height="12" valign="top" margin-right="0">
<span>London</span></td></tr></table>

Where it says London change to your city you still need the code to get the correct weather

Nice! Got that to work! Now where do I make it 12hr format in the html?

I know you told me for a different LS, but can you tell me where in the 4day LS it is?

Also, can you show where I can change it to say November 17 and not 17 November?

Thanks as always Lexs!!
