This update is mainly about changes to suit new Cumulus MX 3.10.0 b3117 which changed the way CumulusMX Interface Settings works and the UIwebsiteMXHowTo file now reflects these changes.

There are other changes as well:-
removal of unnecessary php in the files that are ajaxed.
Addition of an Extra Sensors optional page which currently on supports airlink and WH45 sensors.
The gauges.js.php file has now reverted to gauges.js. Never really liked the php version, so this file is now MX specific and there are only two settings required (there are other options in the file that have always been there) - check the UIwebsiteMXHowTo for details.

Numerous other minor refinements.
refer to Changelog 2021 03 21.txt in theMXUIwebsite_2.2.1 and MXUIwebsite_Options_2.2.1 filesets. Note that only the optional noaareports.php file has changed (for php8)

Enjoy

sorry the disturbance, everything works perfectly among the gauges that give no sign of life and are stationary. where am I wrong? I installed the latest version. Thank you

Do you have realtimegaugesT.txt in your CumulusWX web folder? Also check it is set in Extra Web Files .

With the recent version of CumulusMX you no longer need this added in the Extra web files settings, it is done automatically by CumulusMX along with the other xxxT. files.
Just need to set in Settings - Internet settings - Web/FTP Settings - Realtime Settings - tick as needed.

Enjoy,

Thanks for that Paul

I missed that one!

Hi, I just updated my weather-site:
http://live.wetter-pocking.de
Now I have some problems in the header-section:
- The time does not show the day of the week and the month.
- The last station update time does not refresh automatically.
- Changing the language does nothing.
Can anybody assist me to fix this?

Suggest the first thing to check is that all files are loaded and settings in settings.php and in ajaxCUmx.js are correct.

When you say "Updated", what did you update from ?

I see that I am not the only one in this case.
The update, copy new files and modify parameters, did not work for me, no more translation ...
I'm starting from scratch but I still can't change the language and it's the same for the date.

There are two areas to check.
1. The last station update relies entirely in the realtime-x.txt file being uploaded regularly.
If it is missed twice then the out of date file will cause the last station update to change to red.
2. ajaxCUmx.min.js
While the time_date_tz_utc.php creates the clock time, day, date, month and year, ajaxCUmx.min.js is also involved in delivering parts of this to the website.
Also, while there are separate language files in the langlib folder, the handling of languages is also controlled by ajaxCUmx.min.js

So, you must ensure realtime-x.txt is being uploaded at the interval that is set in CumulusMX, and, ajaxCUmx.min.js is properly configured, both for the realtime-x.txt time, and for the languages that you want to display.

Have downloaded the current MXUIwebsite_2.2.1a.zip fileset and the MXUIwebsite_Options_2.2.1.zip fileset from the forum and installed them in my test website and everything works.

Have also discussed these issues with other users who have no problem with the latest published files.

Trust this helps.

Hi everyone,

First of all, thank you for this wonderful template. A multilingual template is exactly what I was looking for.

my website has the same symptoms than @reindeer and mimo57
https://meteo-meyrargues.fr/

- The time does not show the day and the month (only the character strings).
- The last station update time does not refresh automatically.
- Changing the language does nothing.
- Forecast is not displayed
It seems to be an issue about the translate system.

I use the last version MXUIwebsite_2.2.1a.zip,
I have enabled the multilanguage but English is the default for now,
I have checked that intervals are the same between CumulusMX and ajaxCUmx.min.js (10 seconds),
and the file realtime-x.txt is correctly uploaded.

I suspect a problem of configuration about my website hosting.
Do a special version of PHP is required or a specific module/addon ?

Thanks

Gauges issue

Had my setting set to generate and upload Realtimegauges.txt but static gauges without data
checked the MXDiag log file and was getting a file not found
Copied the realtimegaugesT.txt from the backup made of the original web folder
All working now...

Might help others...

Strange that 3 sites have now reported the same issues.
Mine are working fine and also another user with whom I have been working with recently http://www.dcjcwx.com/cumulusmx/index.php

I've looked with F12 on the 3 sites but that doesn't indicate anything to me. Also noticed that the 3 sites also do not show Current Conditions and Current Forecast.
I presume that all current version files have been FTP and to the appropriate folders?

Enjoy,
Paul

Make sure you have enabled these in settings.php to what you need. These are mine.
I had issues with using METAR from couldbaseCUmx.php. My ISP had as a default a very early version of PHP, changing it fix the issue. Much joy!

I also solved it like this. but I have the problem of multilingual .... it only recognizes English. I did a test by copying the files without making any changes to see if I made any mistakes ..... but nothing does not change my language

I have the same settings.
I have also tried with the Zambretti forecast, in both Cumulus and settings.php, with no success

Hello,
I redid everything, my on a test version, reviewed all the parameters, and nothing changes, a date problem at the top and no translation depending on the choice of language.
I also switched hosting to PHP 7.3 instead of 5.3, with no success.

I make available a ZIP of my complete site for file analysis if necessary.
