@Armond: Do you have a website already would then be the first question before telling how to get it to your server. Or do you wish to make use of the standard website or any of the templates
Cumulusutils is a tool which creates parts for your website or creates a complete website. It can upload automatically but it has to be configured.
If you have questions about it but think it may be useful for you, please ask about it in its own thread for newbies. It has its own part of the wiki.
Your question should be asked in any of the threads for the website templates or in the MX thread itself.

I just found out you do have a working standard MX site including the charts.
So what would you like to achieve would be my first question?

I would like to have the graphs in my web template instead of the standard MX site.

Yes, I have a website already.

I don't think iframe is required but @Armond you will need to create a page to use the cumuluscharts.js from CMX and you will need to find out what is required to include those charts and what you need to do on the HTML level. This is not really general knowledge because it has to do with your site.
Using the standard CMX charts will always require some study of the system. It could help to look at the page in your standard MX site and see how it is done there, then copy the important part to your own site.
CumulusUtils may help because it creates .txt files which you can include at any position in your site. It would still require some study though. It is different from how CMX works.

So I did a page with just the graph,
http://ludvikasegel.com/mx/trends_weathergraphs.htm.
I have to combine my website css and CumulusMX template css to get what I want.
The only thing is that the wind direction does not work.
My first step completed, to be continued...

It is possible with some careful editing of the relevant js file. (The data / configuration(s) are from a 'donor')
@beteljuice That is exactly what I want. Can you give a explonation how to do it?

Everything you need is there ... (I've only shown / modified the items I saw on your test page buttons)
I've commented the html example and the js.
Here's direct link to the js file (trends)

@beteljuice Thanks a lot!
Though am I not really sure how to put everything together.
Where do I put the armond_cumuluscharts.js for instance?

Where ever you want really - as long as you reference it correctly at the bottom of the calling page.
In my example I've used the default cumx layout (ie. the holding page is in in newmx/) and there is a sub-folder newmx/js/ ???
Just view-source on the html example to 'see' its layout.
Notice in the html I had to move the jquery call up to the <head> and change it from 'slim' to a full version - where you get it from is upto you !

Ok, so I got one issue. The solar doesn't plot, it just says loading. I don't find out why
http://ludvikasegel.com/wx/trends_weathergraphs_1.htm.
Is it possible to plot the cloudbase in a graph?

beteljuice error
approx. line 1083
Code: Select all
idxs.forEach(function(idx) {
if (idx in resp) {
if (idx === 'UV') {
chart.addAxis({
id: 'uv',
Should have chart number ...
Code: Select all
idxs.forEach(function(idx) {
if (idx in resp) {
if (idx === 'UV') {
chart8.addAxis({
id: 'uv',
.... and no, there is no history of cloudbase height that you can plot.
