Thanks to all who helped set me up the other night. I now have 2 more questions to ask :shock:

#1 How do you edit the front page to add your own location to the front of the standard page?

I imagine I have to open a file some where edit it, then replace the one that has been uploaded already, help in pointing me to the right place / file would be appreciated.

#2
The signatures boxes with the weather in look great :P I will be back after sorting this bit to ask how to do that to 8-)

#3 (I lied about there being 2 questions :lol: ) I'm with Ntl world and am trying to use some free webspace of theirs, but cannot upload to their server, is this a common thing? (Off Topic :oops: ) for now will carry on with the borrowed page :mrgreen:

You wont be able to use free hosting to do that. Requires PHP with GD support built in.

The Title can actually be modified in your Station Configuration page within Cumulus

However, for future changes to the Standard templates, see here ... http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Customised_templates

Your web server needs to support PHP -- based on what you say below, it will not work as NTL do not provide PHP services

Can you give us a clue as to what is happening? Error messages?

Configuration, Station -- middle of the screen -- Name and Description fields are published to the web. Change those to see how it affects your web pages.

You are trying to upload to the wrong directory on the web server. Check your folder/directory setting
