Can anyone point me to a download link for a SteelSeries Gauges script suitable for integrating into the Saratoga Weather Template?

old link: viewtopic.php?t=9262


dont think there is one. you use a new page from satatoga templates: copy wxnewpage.php and rename it.

then use the Steelgauages template: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=7186 and use that on you website. gauges-ss-basic.htm should be added to the wx?????.page.php you have created.

The package has a PHP "include" file version of the demo page (gauges-ss-basic-inc.php) that is designed to be included within an existing PHP framework page.

I have inserted the contents of gauges-ss-basic-inc.php into an "empty" Saratoga template page wxgaugesda.php.

When I run https://eastleake-weather.org.uk/wxgaugesda.php the 2 temperature gauges are showing incorrect values.

However when I run https://eastleake-weather.org.uk/gauges-ss-basic.htm the temperatures gauges show the correct values as shown in realtimegauges.txt

Any ideas as to what I have done incorrectly when running the gauges script in the Saratoga template?

On another matter I posted several days ago you will notice in eastleake-weather.org.uk the dashboard wind units are inconsistent. The default value in settings is mph. However the daily average and gust values are displayed in km/h whereas the monthy gust is correctly displayed in mph. The various Trends and NOAA reports all display wind in mph. Is this inconsistency by design or a bug?

Those are problems in your Saratoga template set up, so I'll have to leave that to Ken or others to answer.

David, send me a pm and attach your wxgaugesda.php (as a txt file) I'll have a look at it against my own.

https://www.conligwx.org/wxssgauges.php


as to wind. in settings.php have you set the wind unit?

Code: Select all

$SITE['uomWind'] = ' mph';   // =' km/h', =' kts', =' m/s', =' mph'
and ajax-dashboard.php

Code: Select all

$uomWind = ' mph';

you have a couple of updates too:

I have checked the uomwind parameters in settings.php and ajax-dashboard.php and they are both set to mph.

the only other place I know of is:

ajaxCUwx.js

edit the contents of the settings within this file. be carefull.

Code: Select all

var useMPH   = true;       // set to true to force MPH for both English and Metric units

I checked ajaxCUwx.js and var useMPH was set to false. Setting it true solved my problem!

Thanks Simon.

your welcome. glad I could help.

BTW thermometer.php change the

Code: Select all

$tickColor    =  '#FFFFFF'; // color for tick marks and UOM
to

Code: Select all

$tickColor    =  '#000000'; // color for tick marks and UOM
you're missing the scale text.
