On my web site at
http://home.myfairpoint.net/~jody2011/index.php the Feel Like Temp always says 0.0 and "Feel Like (with sun)" always says 255.0. I have found no other issues anywhere. This is on a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B running Raspbian (jessie). Site template is Weather Eden.

You'll have to tell me how that figure is calculated (what data from Cumulus it uses and how it gets it) because it doesn't come directly from Cumulus.

I wish I knew! I didn't know it didn't come from Cumulus and it worked with Cumulus 1, but anyway I seem to have discovered another more important issue. My graphs aren't being updated. I started up Cumulus 1 to update them so they're not far behind right now but I saw that they hadn't updated since I started using Cumulus MX. I've looked everything over, replaced the files on the web server (manual FTP) and I can't see anything wrong anywhere but I'm wondering if perhaps there is something about the template I'm using that's not compatible with Cumulus MX, and more so now that you've said that the Feel Like Temp doesn't come from Cumulus. That template is of course from WeatherByYou. I know very little about HTML, PHP or any of that so I doubt if I can analyze it. I'm thinking perhaps the best way would be to simply use the web site that comes with Cumulus MX (unless the graphs not updating issue can be solved; I don't care that much about the Feel Like Temp but the graphs are more important). I'm attaching a zipped MXdiags folder but I don't really think the problem is to be found there.

MX doesn't generate those fixed image graphs, it creates them from data files, in the browser, like the ones you can see in the user interface. I'm pretty sure that users of Jacques's templates are using the MX graphs on their sites, but I can't tell you the best way to do it.

I think I'll contact him and see if he can tell me or point me to someone who is doing it. Thanks.

It occurs to me that another way of doing this would be to use Mark's scripts for generating graphs which behave like the old Cumulus 1 image files -

The advantage of this is that it would require little or no change to the web page.
