If you do a forum search for sunbird.txt, you should find either a copy that someone has uploaded, or a link to one elsewhere on the web.

If I search for sunbird.txt, one of the first few hits is this thread - https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.p ... unbird.txt

Which has a link to this file - http://www.faqawi.com/sunbird/screenlet/sunbird.txt

Why not just save the file from that link, rather than creating one using notepad?

If you show your internet settings screen and the 'extra files' tab, someone should be able to tell you what you're doing wrong.

because in this link there isn' t the file but only the tag , and then I have to create the file that' s why I asked the original,the next procedure its very easy to just do the upload process with cumulus ticking the box , so' as I did for the realtime.xml files and had no problems , so I need someone to give me propio the file and not the tag to copy and then create the file I do not know if I explained well

The link in that thread, that I repeated here, is a link to a file - http://www.faqawi.com/sunbird/screenlet/sunbird.txt

Just right-click and save the file, as it explains in the original post containing the link.

This is the interface screen shoots of my cumulus where I send online on my server what ' I'm interested in including the files that allow me to view the on- line data of my weather station even on my tablet , however mlagrado I did as you told me you on my server still does not appear on sunbird.txt files despite cumulus processes it and sends it on-line on the continuous tablet to see only the moisture rain and wind temperature data without the name of my town and no sunrise and sunset, do not understand where I'm wrong!

You haven't supplied any remote filenames.

Why do you have the index.htm file listed there?

Assuming that you have filled in your details correctly on the 'sites/options' tab, Cumulus will be uploading the 'standard' web site pages automatically. It won't be doing anything with those extra files because you haven't told it where to put them.

What are you actually viewing on your tablet, and what are using to view it?

So as I understand it despite having changed the index page that cumulus by default and loads automatically I have not put it on the list because I have not assigned where the server would still cumulus and does it automatically , but not in the file c standards ' and ' sunbird.txt not it? and so I should add in the list , but where do I go to indicate that the server?
Thanks for your patience.

It looks like you just need to put "sunbird.txt" for the remote filename, as you apparently don't need to specify a directory.
