chillhours

Post by swharper »

I recently upgraded to cumulus 1.9.2 to get the Chill Hours. The chill hours show up in the console and are increasing but I cannot get the chillhours on the 'This Year' standard page. I tried to add the tag <#chillhours> on the standard page but it only shows the tag <#chillhours>. I have ensured that my editor is not causing the problem and my questions are 1) why was the <#chillhours> tag not included in the 'thisyear.htm' template as part of the 1.9.2 upgrade. I would have expected it to since chillhours was added new. 2) Could it be that the tag is only for a custom web pages and the standard pages cannot be edited?

I don't put all web tags on the supplied pages, and <#chillhours> was for a fairly specialised purpose. There's no difference between the supplied pages and a 'custom' page, and no reason why you can't edit the supplied 'this year' page to include it. Make sure you are editing the 'template' (thisyearT.htm) and not the 'processed' file (thisyear.htm).
