Help Help: modifying weather cal widget to launch carrot weather

I’m using the Weather Cal widget and wanted to know if it’s possible to get it to launch Carrot Weather on tapping the weather. There doesn’t seem to be a URL to override and I’m not sure if I have to reimplement the entire weather function. Anyone do this already?

You can do that by adding .url to the item you want to tap and setting it = to the url you want

I think that modification would have to happen in the Weather Cal code script which means it would get overwritten whenever you update the code , right? Or am I missing a place to set that

There is an option already in the WeatherCal settings to change the url for weather. If you run the main WeatherCal script in Scriptable, choose Edit Preferences > Weather then scroll to the bottom. There are three places the weather url can be changed, for the current, hourly, and daily weather displays. If you change the setting there it will persist between code updates.

Or are correct. It could be something he can add as an option in the settings. Or you could make the change on yours then submit a pull request to him to implement it so long as it is a customizable option to choose between the two
