#**# Next where I want a transfer done only at end of day, I have added lines like "ExtraEOD19=1" and changed the previous "ExtraRealtime19=1" to "ExtraRealtime19=0" (I previously used realtime as that was only way in Cumulus 1 to ensure a transfer happened as close to end of day as possible, but it inefficiently also made huge numbers of unwanted transfers during the day). I had 9 such files being copied far too often, so those 9 changes will cause a huge reduction in processing load! | #**# Next where I want a transfer done only at end of day, I have added lines like "ExtraEOD19=1" and changed the previous "ExtraRealtime19=1" to "ExtraRealtime19=0" (I previously used realtime as that was only way in Cumulus 1 to ensure a transfer happened as close to end of day as possible, but it inefficiently also made huge numbers of unwanted transfers during the day).

#**# I have a few files that are PHP scripts listed in this section written as Cumulus templates; each has a number of PHP variables being set equal to a Cumulus web tag. In some cases the web tags have date/time parameters, for these I had previously edited any ""hh" into "HH", any "mm" into "MM", any "mmm" into "MMM" and any "mmmm" into "MMMM" in line with the recommendations I had some years ago put in [[Webtags#List_of_allowed_modifiers|this table]] for Cumulus 1. That left "nn" for minutes in Cumulus 1 where I could not change it to a MX equivalent "mm" which Cumulus 1 would have taken as month. So now I created a new version of the one PHP script that used "nn", changed it in the new script to "mm" and changed the reference in the MX '''Cumulus.ini''' to the old file to refer to the new file. | #**# I have a few files that are PHP scripts listed in this section written as Cumulus templates; each has a number of PHP variables being set equal to a Cumulus web tag.

#**In the "'''[NOAA]'''" section I had '''MonthFileFormat="NOAAMO"MMMyyyy".txt"''' on a line, I checked at [[Webtags#List_of_allowed_modifiers|List of allowed date/time modifiers]] that 'MMM' and 'yyyy' were valid in Cumulus MX as well as in Cumulus 1, they were so no edit needed either to that line or to "YearFileFormat="NOAAYR"yyyy".txt" line. | #**In the "'''[NOAA]'''" section I had '''MonthFileFormat="NOAAMO"MMMyyyy".txt"''' on a line, I checked at [[Webtags#List_of_allowed_modifiers|List of allowed date/time modifiers]] that 'MMM' and 'yyyy' were valid in Cumulus MX as well as in Cumulus 1, they were so no edit needed either to that line or to "YearFileFormat="NOAAYR"yyyy".txt" line. | ||
