Hi guys,

I created a new icon and i want to use it in the menu like big icon when the menu is open.

How can i do that ?
Where should i upload this icon in which file ?

Thanks in advance

[Jáchym]

Hi Gilles,
the icons are not individual images, the template uses SVG vector objects integrated and compiled into a one large font file, so to add new icons you would need to re-compile the font and convert your icon to SVG as well and then replace all the corresponding files in the template for all the fonts, the references to them. This unfortunately is not that easy, but there were many reasons why I switched from using normal PNG icons to SVGs, the advantages of this far outweigh the disadvantages.

HI Jachym,
 
Ok OK then I will not do it. To difficult for me  !!!!
May be one day you'll add a WU icon ????

Thanks

[Jáchym]

To be quite honest I hope not People here know that I dont like WU for all the different reasons and I hope it will soon be replaced by a much better alternative Lets hope so

[gillesroszak]

i know  Jachym, but i have no other alternative to use my data . i need to use WU for that.
My Pws is an Aercus weather ranger and i can't send my data directly to my host. There is no other way for me  but to buy a new pws, and for now my financial situation don't authorize me to do it.

[Jáchym]

Yes I know, so your station can send only to WU? Nothing else?

[gillesroszak]

it's a clone of ws1001 wifi ambient weather. There is a way i think but i have to update the firmware with last one from Ambient weather 4.1 or so. but i don't know if it will work with my Pws considering that is not the same brand (mine is an AERCUS)

[gillesroszak]

if you can help me for bypassing wu i will be happy

[Jáchym]

Hi,
Im not sure I can help you with this, I dont know this station, I have WH1080 with Meteobridge

[KapitainOne]

if you can help me for bypassing wu i will be happy

Not sure if this would be of any help but it does mention your PWS model!!

[gillesroszak]

just a question,

in the firmware there is a file named server.ini (attached) it seems to have two possibilities for sending data. one is for wunderground the second is not completed; Perhaps can i use it for sending the data to meteotemplate.
But the problem is that i don't know under which form this data are sent

Yes i saw that but my problem is that i don't know how to install this soft. i think it is built for linux

[Jáchym]

Can you set it to send data to your own server via FTP?

[gillesroszak]

That is the question, if i modify the file like below  do you think that will work or not

[Menu]
default=www.wunderground.com
web=2
web1=www.wunderground.com
web2=www.dashboard.meteokerbach.fr/template

[www.wunderground.com]
Server=rtupdate.wunderground.com
ServerType=php
ServerPort=80

[www.dashboard.meteokerbach.fr/template]
Server=www.dashboard.meteokerbach.fr/template
ServerType=php
ServerPort=80
UploadType=Customize
ReadOnly=true

[Jáchym]

I really dont know, you need to ask in a different thread on this forum, someone who has this station might be able to help you

[gillesroszak]

ok I'll do that and see

New Block – Station Deviations

in this block you provide monthly long-term averages or normals for temperature and precipitation. The block will then calculate the deviations from your station. In addition you can set up whether or not you want to display the current, so far incomplete, month and how many months should be displayed by default.
