Sorry but I didn't understand your question. In main menu, Configuration, in the tab of weather services, you can find several services.

I'm not seeing a Configuration option at all in the main menu. I get a
preferences option with teh following tabs: Ubication, Units, General
options, Notifications. General options include autostart, refresh time,
and icon theme. Ubication just enables my location and one other.

Myweather-indicator.conf file reads:

Forget it, I've found another indicator that works on XFCE.

OK!, Ross.

I think you were using an old version of My-Weather-Indicator. If you want to use MWI, and need any help tell me.

I'm using 0.4.5.19 and all I get is N/A for all weather in my location. I installed it from your ppa so...how do I get it to work?

Same problem as JWDinKC. Version 0.4.5.19. No option to choose a particular weather service, so I'm assuming Yahoo is to blame. A FAQ or a HOWTO would be really nice.
