You don't need to use HTML; just add the characters "#iwo" to your message.

Where can i find the default file to add the #iwo to?? I'm using the default at the moment not the Twitter.txt file.

I don't know waht you mean but the only file that is used by cumulus is the twitter.txt you can ad cumuluswebtags in it

expample :

Code: Select all

It's <#temp> : <#forecast> and plaintext like #iwo

Where is the Twitter.txt file located?? I have looked for it in every folder. I know i can create a Twitter.txt file but i'm happy with what Cumulus is tweeting right now but just want to add the #iwo to the tweet. I guess i will just have to create a new Twitter.txt file and include the data i want to send to my followers.

It should be in the same folder as cumulus.exe .

BTW lowercase twitter.txt

Yes, you need to create a twitter.txt file. This wiki page should tell you what you need to know: http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Twitter but the equivalent of the default message is this:

Code: Select all

Wind <#wspeed> <#windunit> <#wdir>. Barometer <#press> <#pressunit>, <#presstrend>. Temperature <#temp> <#tempunit>. Rain today <#rfall> <#rainunit>. Humidity <#hum>%
