The Learning Curve....
« on: August 14, 2020, 07:24:19 AM »
Ladies and Gentlemen,
  Yes, I am in the "Learning Curve".  I have managed to get my "test website" up and running.  Please log on to http://www.csrawxaq.com/wxindex.php.
I am asking if someone could provide a little guidance with adding images/links below the "ALERTS" section to the menubar.php AND/OR a little guidance in adding images/links to the footer.php scripts.  I have read, meditated and attempted to follow Mr. Ken True's instructions on the subject matter.  Trying to understand how to add to php scripts in the right locations.   I have managed to create my banner.png and display the image in the header.php, with ease.  Also, any comments, constructive criticism and advice would be appreciated.  Thank You!

Thank You, Wim!  I will resolve this issue with my hosting VPS server.

Wim,
  Ionos (1 and 1) hosting said that because I do not have my website LIVE, PLESK Control Panel has not assigned the SSL certificate.  I will go LIVE later today, and troubleshoot for more issues.  Thank You for your support.

Use the existing code there as examples - in the menubar.php under <!-- external links --> I have added new items <li>xxxxx</li> like the following...
Code: [Select]
<li><a href="../weather/cumulusrss.php" title="Subscribe to Komoka Village Weather"><img src="../weather/images/feed-icon-large.png" alt="RSS" style="border:0"/></a></li>
Code: [Select]
<li><a href="http://www.komokarailmuseum.ca" title="Komoka Railway Museum">Kom Museum</a></li>
Add and  experiment to your liking \:D/

Enjoy,
Paul

Some minor things to take care of:
Icons missing https://csrawxaq.com/wxmetar.php   csrawxaq.com/ajax-images/bkn.jpg  => 404 error

WXSIM not (yet) installed   https://csrawxaq.com/wxsimforecast.php  => WXSIM Forecast is not available.

WU radar https://csrawxaq.com/wxradar.php  => ??

Yesterdays data not (yet) uploaded https://csrawxaq.com/wxstatus.php 
=> WeatherLink does not have yesterdays values, you need to upload them end of the current day.

Link to weatherUnderground should IMHO point to your stations-page. It now points to the general weatherunderground page.

Have fun,

Wim
