Station name not always displayed in WDL 2. edition

Post by Billy »

I was always wondering why the station name was not displayed in my WDL page.

The fact is, that the station name e.g. "Test" is
only displayed in WDL if in WDL-Configurator Station Date/Time --> Time only is choosen.

When choosen
Station Date/Time --> Date only,
Station name is not shown in WDL
After changing the clientraw.txt file manually
as below it works!

After replacing the underscore behind the station name with a hyphen
--> "Test-" the station name was displayed correctly in both conditions.

I think only Boris can help to solve this issue.

Is this a known issue?

I am not sure that this is the solution but the idea is to have a hyphen in the station name. Everything is displayed up to the first hyphen. I guess the idea is to have "Paris - France" displayed as "Paris". So I added a hyphen to my station name, say "Testname-", and now it works fine.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that if you do a reply and edit the subject line before you post, e.g. add [SOLVED] at the front, that might do the trick?
