I am getting nothing except an About pages that only shows it as html coding in the Sunny Weather template. How do I correct that? I know I am missing something here.
Also, where do I go about deleting the references to the webcam page as I don't have a web cam and don't plan on getting one.

Hi,
You pages are probably not processed, then check if you have copied
all files from the web folder into C:\Cumulus\web folder
(if your Cumulus is installed in folder C:\Cumulus.)
Also check in Cumulus menu: Configuration --> Internet --> Files tab,
the option Include Standard files must be ticked, like the option
Include Standard Images and others solar/uv if you have uv sensor.
For your menu, you have to edit all html files to strip the line you want
to be removed, like this:
...
<li><a href="trends.htm" title="Recent trends">Trends</a></li>
<li><a href="webcam.htm" title="Station's WebCAM">Webcam</a></li>
<li><a href="infos.htm" title="Information on our installation">About</a></li>
Hope this help!

Jacques

Thanks for the reply. It sure helped me find my error in uploading the two files. However, I still have two problems. The first is with the Month_patch_ for _Sunny_Weather_v1x. When clicking on the "All Time" record link it tries to go to monthlyrecord.htm (<a href="" class="" > All-Time </a>) for which there is none except the original one from the Cumulus software package.

Hi Az,
That package is a "patch", then it was planned to enhance template
but there is a twist. You have to rename your current recordT.html
to multirecords.htm and use the new recordsT.htm included in the .zip file.
That way no modification to template menu as it already call the records.htm
file, but it is a new one, linked by "all-time" button to the old records.htm
(now renamed to 'monthlyrecord.htm')
Hope this help.

I must admit that I find this confusing. How will this work properly when Cumulus updates its files? It doesn't have a multirecords.htm file. Let's see if I understand this correctly:
- the Cumulus recordT.htm is now renamed to multirecords.htm
- the recordT.htm in the zip file replaces the recordT.htm that had been the one from the Cumulus setup
- the Cumulus record.htm is now renamed to monthlyrecord.htm
Do I have that correct?

Hi Tom,
That is ok! But the recordsT.htm is the Sunny Weather file
(not belong to Cumulus)
But, yes, names has been interchanged to simplify installation
(but broke our head!)

Sorry to bother you in this 3ad
I've the same issue about modifying single lines on htm files.
If i cancel the line : <li><a href="webcam.htm" title="Station's WebCAM">Webcam</a></li>
then i Save the mod and open again website. The 1st time i open the page after last mod, is ok I can see on top menu that "Webcam" is not there anymore, but if i close the page and open it again.......... :o "Webcam" on top menu appears again and if i edit again htm file...... :o <li><a href="webcam.htm" title="Station's WebCAM">Webcam</a></li> appears again as never modified.
This happens on all htm file i try to modify.
thanks for yr help

Hi Luca,
Problem is probably just because you're editing the file before process.
Other files have all a "T" as end and are easy to recognize like that!
But the files you're editing are not in base Cumulus template, so T has
not been used. Also these 2 pages need to be processed only 1 time
to add your site title and slogan.
So, process them only 1 time and things will be great!

Jacques

So, I've to edit T files and not the others HTM ? sorry but I don't understand which htm file i've to edit so to have my mods ready on webpage.
thanks Jacques for ur help

Hi Ap,
Depends on which Template you have choosen, instructions are different.
On basic templates (Sunny Weather or Weather Blues v1), a list of files
are ending with capital "T" (indexT.htm, todayT.htm), these files are the
"non-processed" files. They could be edited in your Pc.
Each Template has it's own installation/configuration guide, see this first.

Jacques

ok ! i've choosen sunny weather template just to start.
so if I don't want that pages like Webcam and about appear, as I don't have a webcam yet, I must delete the line on indexT.htm and then when I want to see my page,automatically Webcam and About page on top menu will not appear.
hope now i've understood, if not.....i'll give up :-[

Aphexius,
You do not need to remove the menu line for the webcam if you are planning on installing one in the future. All you will need top do is to comment that line out. In html code start the comment with <!-- and end it with --> and you will no longer see that menu line. But, remember, you will need to do that in every page/file that ends with the T like indexT.htm, todayT.htm, etc. The T (if Jacques hasn't already alluded to it) stands for Template. You change the Template file and when processed, pages like indexT.htm become index.htm on your server.
