NOAA Report Formatting Issues *solved

From Cumulus MX version 3 build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since, and has recently released Cumulus MX version 4. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

NOAA Report Formatting Issues *solved

Post by grwkak »

Updated MX to build 4083 and uploaded the web files to my server.
I did not specify HTML format for NOAA reports in my set-up and now my NOAA files are not formatted at all - they seem to be "run on" strings:

What am I missing here?

It appears the updated version of websitedataT.json required for this version is not in the zip file :oops:

Please try adding this file to your "/web" folder

A new entry

"noaaFormat":"<#Option_noaaFormat>"

in the websitedataT.json file

Code: Select all

"options":{
  "useApparent":"<#Option_useApparent>",
  "showSolar":"<#Option_showSolar>",
  "showUV":"<#Option_showUV>",
  "noaaFormat":"<#Option_noaaFormat>"
},
has resolved all outstanding issues with NOAA reports.

I'll also reverse the logic in the noaarpts.js script so it defaults to plain text rather than HTML if the option is missing.
