Got a new update out, and forgot to announce a few previous updates.
DetailsI've added the ability to install the template as a Progressive Web App, meaning that on Android, Apple, and Desktops, you and all your users can now install your site like its a normal app. The installed "app" gets updated automatically from your site because in reality, its basically just opening up a browser tab without it looking like a browser. Screenshots below of how to install, though most browsers make it obvious when they notice a site is capable. Works best with Chrome on Android because it adds an app to your app drawer, though Firefox does work too by adding an icon to your home screen (but not app drawer). On iPhones, only works with Safari, because that's the Apple way. On Windows/Linux desktop, Chrome and Firefox do a good job, though any browser should work too. On Mac Desktop, I assume only Safari but could possibly work with other browsers as well. Not sure since I don't have a Mac.
In Chrome and most browsers, there's an option within the menu about installing the app (see screenshot), and Android it popups up a message about installing. The Android message is a one time thing that shows up once per user, afterwards its found in the menu so as to not annoy users that don't want to install. On iPhones and iPads, click the share button, and then "Add to Homescreen".
How to UpdateAs always, if you use git, just use the command
git pull to update.
For those of you that don't update with git, seems Brian has been making quite a few updates to formatting of the almanacs and whatnot, so there are quite a few files to update by hand. Best bet is to use the url "https://
github.com/weather34/Meteobridge-Weather34-Template/compare/master@%7B
05-10-19%7D...master#files_bucket". Replace the red 05-01-19 with the last date you updated, in the format MM-DD-YY (GitHub decided to use that date format, not me).
Here's the url as an easy click link, just replace the date in it. Click the blue text that says "Showing
26 file changes" to see the list of files that have been changed. With all of the resent silent updates to formatting, the list of files to update gets very long very quickly, so if you haven't updated in the last few weeks, might be best to do
download the .zip and reinstall, backing up your settings1.php, jsondata, and the .csv files in mbcharts.
