While Cumulus MX can read the today.ini produced by Cumulus 1, you probably need to edit the date format in the date at the start of that file before Cumulus 1 can read a today.ini produced by MX. MX uses ISO format dates with year first, Cumulus 1 uses the date format defined on your PC system that might have year last. Look up in this wiki pages for the Log Files index page or the individual file pages just referenced to see the differences between file content, and what you may need to edit to use Cumulus 1 files with MX.

Both Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX supply a number of templates that are processed into web pages, although the end produce web pages are (except for trends.htm) identical, the templates are not interchangeable. However, there are files that Cumulus 1 uses (for example it uses several image files for the trends web page and a weather diary in a XML file) that are not used by MX and also many files that MX creates (for example json files and a weather diary in a SQlite file) that were not part of Cumulus 1.
