I know you mentioned that last week but I have been through CMX looking for the extra files settings and cannot find it. Please can you screen shot the page you are looking at.

I'm not Freddie, but in the MX admin interface, in menu choose settings, then you will find the extra web files page.

Please see the documentation at https://cumuluswiki.org/a/MX_Administra ... _Web_Files. There are some screen shots there, but I've attached
Capture.PNG
a shot of how I upload my moon image (2nd row) by ticking "binary". Please note MX does NOT provide a once an hour option here, so Freddie's comment is not truly accurate. You will see I use Raspberry Pi operating system, not Microsoft Windows operating system, so my paths are specified with forward slashes, not the backward slashes Microsoft uses.

So whilst I got the local dashboard index page to look good on a normal pc screen ie in a landscape format the gauges page looked rather off being in a portrait mode.

After some of fiddling around with the gauges.html I arrived at the attached layout. The order of the gauges is easily changeable for personal preference.

The weather data is now displayed in a format that makes me happy, others may not agree.

Nice, AndyK.
Any chance of a copy of the gauges HTML?

Hi Ned

No problem, I have attached the index file and the gauges file together with the CSS files which may well help.
