Hi all,
I run the website for local club and we are in the process of updating the systems with a new laptop (Windows 10) and an update to Cumulus MX to support FTP for upload to the website.
It's going well so far, the only question I have is in relation to the use of custom gauges.
In Cumulus 1 (Internet Settings > Files) we could set the local gauge name for realtimegauges.txt and gauges-ss.htm (see attached pics) but I can't see any way to configure them in MX.
Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lee

Re: Gauge Help - Upgrade from Cumulus 1 to MX
Cumulus MX works a bit differently though.
The realtimegauges.txt file is now a "standard file", you do not have to use Extra files to send it to your FTP server.
If you use the new MX web site template, then the HTML files are now static, they do not need to be processed and uploaded for every update.

Thanks both,
Could you direct me to the new MX web site template please to make sure I'm using the right one as there seems to be a few references to web templates in the wiki.
