Re: Toolbox sensorcontact
There seems to be an issue with the tags file.
Edit the tags file that Cumulus is processing -- Use notepad++ or some other text editor.
(not sure what you have called it, but in the installation instructions it is "cumuluswebtags.txt")
Near the very end of the file around line 305 you will see ...
Change the webtag to..
Note the uppercase letters. That should work.
Steve -- are the webtags case sensitive? They appear to be? Is that new?

Code: Select all
$sensorcontactlost = "<#sensorcontactlost>"; Code: Select all
$sensorcontactlost = "<#SensorContactLost>"; Steve -- are the webtags case sensitive? They appear to be? Is that new?

I have since found this post.... https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.p ... 972#p30972
Steve, does this mean that all the new tags will be case sensitive (the help has the new ones in ProperCase)?

Re: Toolbox sensorcontact
They're case sensitive. I think that has always been true, even before I completely rewrote the code which handles them. I've been inconsistent in the past over the naming, so some are lowercase and some are CamelCase. I'm trying to make new ones CamelCase, but if it's one that is missing from a set which are already lowercase, I'm tending to make the new one lowercase too.

Re: Toolbox sensorcontact
AlwaysGoodToWriteNamesThus Much easier reading
I tend to name my files like this....old habits I reckon. But then file names are not case sensitive.
Keeps the names a tad shorter with no spaces or other punctuation.
