== How do I include, forextra example, Solar, Sunshine, or UVitems on supplied web pagestemplates? ==
Open the folder cumulus\web and edit the relevant file named xxxxxT.htm. For example instead of deleting the sections in the previous answer, edit their contents.
See [[Customised_templates#Changing_the_Standard_Templates]].
 
If you do change the standard templates, take a copy of your new versions, and store elsewhere.
The sub-folder cumulus\web\originals has copies of the standard templates from the installed build, do not edit these.
When you install a new build of Cumulus, you have an option to replace or not replace the contents of cumulus\web with the new build's standard templates.
 
== How do I upload extra web pages? ==
See Cumulus help for the Internet Settings screen, or for a step-by-step guide see [[Customised_templates#What_to_select_on_the_.27Files.27_tab_of_the_Internet_Settings_screen_within_the_.27Configuration.27_menu]]
 
 
== What character encoding does Cumulus use for the web pages it generates? ==
Cumulus 1.9.4 build 1093 changed all the template pages from XHTML 1.0 Transitional using charset=iso-8859-1 encoding to HTML 5 using charset="UTF-8" encoding.
From that build, you can tell Cumulus which of those two encodings to use:
*For standard templates, if you replace them with customised ones not using utf-8, unselect '''UTF-8 encode''' in the web settings frame on the Sites/Options tab of Internet settings screen in Configuration menu.
*For extra templates, the Files tab of the Internet settings screen in Configuration menu has the option to choose which of the two Cumulus encodings to use. See Wiki article referenced in previous answer.
 
Note that since Cumulus 1.9.4 build 1078 there has been an option on the NOAA Setup screen in Configuration menu to specify whether character set utf-8 encoding is to be used for those reports.
