It seems like the weather wallpaper widget doesn't handle requests to wettercom right. I just searched for the city I'm living using postal code 67433 and the right city (neustadt weinstraße) was found but if I click "OK" just the standard desktop is shown. I'm not really an expert doing this but I just analyzed the network traffic a bit using wireshark. This is what came out: for finding the location this get request is send to api.wetter.com: "GET /location/index/search/67433/project/weatherion/cs/5408d6b3deddae09492d56e05c75ecd5 HTTP/1.1" The wetter.com server returns a xml file including this link: http://www.wetter.com/deutschland/neustadt/DE0007438.html which seems to be the right link to the webpage for my city. But as well a request to news.bbc.co.uk is send: "GET /weather/util/search/SearchResultsNode.xhtml?&search=67433®ion=world&startIndex=0&count=500 HTTP/1.1\r\n" But this one returns a site containing a note that no weather forecast could be found. As well, this file was requested: http://w1.weather.gov/xml/current_obs/index.xml I hope this helps ;) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Choose any location from wettercom in the wallpaper settings. 2. Click OK Actual Results: Just the standard desktop wallpaper is shown, noone specified in the weather settings. Expected Results: The right wallpaper choosen for the weather of the location should be shown.
Hello! This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5. Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging Thanks for your understanding!
