<a href = "http://www.weather.com/weather/local/$bbuserinfo[fieldXX]?lswe=$bbuserinfo[fieldXX]&lwsa=WeatherLocalUndeclared&from=whatwhere">weather</a>
</if>
Replacing XX with the field that you set in the ACP.
Anyone who gets this functionality working please let me know as I would like their advice/assist in implementing it in mine.

Thanks much, very exciting!

Looks great and thanks but yea for my site we are scattered all over Australia and no point in having just the 1 location weather showing, so need the option of looking elsewhere, but great idea though thank you.

I keep getting an error that reads.

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /includes/cron/extras/weather.php on line 76

Installed and works great! I wonder, though, is it at all possible to have multiple location capability, or even like Doctor Death was asking, be able to use a field? We already have a zip code field on my website, would be awesome to be able to use that with this product.

The description for Weather File is a little misleading... it should read:

Enter into this box the full server path to the weather.txt file and make sure you change the weather.txt file to have 777 permissions. Note that a server path is not an HTTP link. Example: /home/username/public_html/domain/forum/includes/cron/extras/weather.txt

Where "username" is the username you use to login to your backend control panel for your web server, cpanel, for example. I kept getting the same error, so I did a search of all of my settings that had "public_html" in it, and found a little better explanation under the Error Handling and Logging section.

This would be an amazing mod if it was world-wide weather cast, but good work though.
