The Alternative Public Website

This page is targeted at my Alternative Public Website and not the default website supplied with CumulusMX. This alternative is designed to work with the existing data that is uploaded by CumulusMX and supports some additional data not shown on the default site.

You can view this site at ai2weather.uk/apw/ and at ai2weather.uk/cmxAs2/. Both these sites use the same template but are configured differently showing some of the features you can use.

Configuration

Caption text

This is slightly different in this version although it still uses the same cmxConfig object. As can be seen, the object is now separated into sections with one or two extra entries in Custom. You will need to make sure that the Data and NOAAReportsPath entries point to your data and reports respectively. Based on some feedback, if you want to use the standard menu format you need to set 'StandardMenu' to true. This will than use a bar menu across the top of the page. I will be providing more detailed information here and on my Wiki soon.

cmxConfig = { Charts: { Trends: , Historic: , }, Custom: { StandardMenu: false, Dropdown: true, Theme: , Logo: , BannerImage: , StaticHead: true, StaticFoot: true, PaddingTop: '2', PaddingBottom: '1', PaddingUnits: 'em', }, Data: , Menu: 'js/ows-menu.js', NOAAReportPath: 'Reports/', Gull: { Animation: , Speed: 5, OnTop: false, }, Records: { All: , Monthly: , } };
