How can I adapt this so that members can put it in their profile? That's what I initially thought this was. I don't use forum sidebar on my site because members complain it slows down their browser.

There is probably a lot simpler way to do this - I've never created a profile block before.

1. Create your profile field as normal.

2. Then create a new template called weather_aboutme

<div>
  <div>
    <h5 class="blocksubhead smaller">My Weather</h5>
      <div class="blockbody">
        <div class="blockrow">
          <div class="meta">
             <li>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[fieldXX] !=''"> 
            <div style="width:230px; height:150px;">
    <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://swf.yowindow.com/yowidget3.swf" width="220" height="150">
        <param name="movie" value="http://swf.yowindow.com/yowidget3.swf"/>
        <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"/>
        <param name="wmode" value="opaque"/>
        <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"/>
        <param name="flashvars" 
        value="location_id=gn:{vb:raw bbuserinfo.fieldXX}&amp;time_format=24&amp;us=metric&amp;background=#FFFFFF&amp;mini_locationBar=false&amp;copyright_bar=false"
    />
        <a href="http://yowindow.com/weatherwidget.php"
        style="width:220px;height:150px;display: block;text-indent: -50000px;font-size: 0px;background:#DDF url(http://yowindow.com/img/logo.png) no-repeat scroll 50% 50%;"
        >HTML weather</a>
    </object>
</div>
<div style="width: 220px; height: 15px; font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
    <span style="float:left;"><a target="_top" href="http://yowindow.com?client=widget&amp;link=copyright" style="color: #2fa900; text-decoration:none;" title="Desktop weather">YoWindow.com</a></span>
    <span style="float:right; color:#888888;"><a href="http://yr.no" style="color: #2fa900; text-decoration:none;">yr.no</a></span>
</div><br/><div>Click the image for expanded forecast.</div>
<vb:else />
<br/><b>Add your <a href="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/profile.php?do=editprofile">Weather Location Code</A> to show your weather forecast in this block.<br/><br/></b>   </vb:if>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div> 
  </div>
</div>
<div class="underblock"></div>

Remember to change the 2 instances of XX to correspond with the profile field you just created. Save the template.

3. In your AdminCP, go to Plugins & Products > Add New Plugin

}
