Hi Everyone, I have started implementing the Select-A-Chart into my website and have a quick question regarding the popup menu. I have adapted my own theme as I have done in the normal charts and historical charts but I cant seem to find where the background colours and the scroll bar colours for th...

Once you have CumulusMX set up on your pi and the pi is connected to your home network, open a web browser on your pc / tablet and go to the address xxx.xxx.x.x:8998 (where the x's represent the IP address of your pi). e.g. 192.168.1.10:8998 This should take you to the interface of CumulusMX i belie...

I think the idea as Kris says is that this is a "starting point" and you can use your own ideas and choose layouts, icons, ways of displaying things as you choose. As you see from my site I took some of the original ideas and made some modifications, ok, a lot of modifications. I added new...

Thanks Kris,
Works perfectly.

Hi Kris.
Sorry I am late getting back to you, normal life gets in the way sometime.

Thank you for the fix. I will make the changes this morning.

Hi Kris, Maybe my understanding but please take a look at the 2 images in the zip file. I understand about the first interval (the one I have under my temperature section in the top left). If you look at the 6-hourly forecast in the bottm right you can see that in image "pre-11" first time...

Hi, I didnt have it originally but I have put it here. http://midlifedad.me.uk/wBox/wVARf.html Please remember I do not do things the same way :-) I use slightly different methods to get the forecast, I just call the json file using my pi every 5 minutes and then read that file. Its a slightly diffe...

A quick question for some help on a very minor details, just need a pointer to help me work it out. The 6-hour icon change over should be at 6am, midday, 6pm and midnight. However, as we are now in BST (GMT+1) the changover seems to be happening at 5am, 11am, 5pm and 11pm. The json file seems to hav...

I spent some time today trying to work out why my brothers forecast, the one with the Kindle Fire, was showing abnormal readings, particulary wind speeds. I looked and looked and then looked some more and could not find a reason. I then decided to check the lat / long co-ordinates using Google Maps....

Big Daddy

I remembered why I needed to use a file instead of a direct API call. :bash: I set wBox up for my brother and we are running it on a very old Kindle Fire. When we first used it, first thing it did was go to internet and automatically update itself to latest version of OS and apps, including the brow...

Big Daddy

Hi Kris, First I want to say Thank You for providing the updated JSON version of wBox. This means we will be able to continue using it when nr.yo change their API output very soon and wBox will continue to provide us with forecast data for many days and hopefully years to come. Your work is much app...

Big Daddy

Sounds like I am stuck in "old times".

I just noticed as well that it refreshes every 200s so I will go with the new way.

Thanks
Andy

Big Daddy

So I have my wBox using the new json file and I am now doing some design work to fit in the max / min temperatures as that is a nice feature. One question, in old xml version I used my Pi to get forecast data every 30 minutes and save as xml file (forecast.xml) so I did not constantly use API when n...

Big Daddy

Great, and thank you Kris. I need to play now :-) I forgot, I added new features to my wBox, I see you included a link to my version in your documentation, thank you. I added: 1) "Dew Point" on bottom left of my "moisture" section (one drop icon and value). 2) Todays "Sun ho...
