<tr class="td_temperature_data"><br>     <td>Hours&nbsp;of&nbsp;Sunshine</td><br>     <td><#SunshineHours></td><br>     <td>&nbsp;</td><br> </tr> == MyWhy does a standard gauges web page ~~has~~have text where it should show gauges? == [[File:Gauges missing.jpg]] If ~~your~~a standard Cumulus 'gauges.htm' web page displays like this then either 1) ~~You~~The ~~have~~originator has not loaded the required files onto ~~your~~his/her server (the whole of the '\webfiles\dbimages' folder within the folder that holds ~~your~~the Cumulus program should be uploaded as explained in [[Simple Website setup]]) or 2) JavaScript is not enabled in ~~your~~the browser being used to view the page (in most browsers this is switched on and off in either something called 'Options' or something called 'Settings') or 3) You are using an add-on such as 'NoScript' which requires you to explicitly turn on JavaScript for each web site you visit within the 'NoScript' options. (This sort of add-on may be used to restrict advertising or tracking of your actions, or for security against unwanted processes being started by sites you visit). == What is the size of the standard Cumulus update? == The default is that all of the standard pages and standard images are uploaded on each update at whatever standard update frequency you select. In total for version 1.9.2, it's about half a megabyte - about 100kB for the pages (about half of that is the gauges.htm page with all the detailed wind plotting points, and half the other pages) and 400kB for the variable images (moon phase, some gauges images and trend graphs - the exact size of latter can vary if you change the period they cover). This excludes the [[realtime.txt]] file. It also excludes any additional file transfers you may add (e.g. [[dayfile.txt]] or files required by external sites). Version 1.9.3 adds the monthly records page which contains 12 months worth of a lot of data (although usually very little changes between updates), and adds 25kB. == The 'real time wind data' gauges on the standard gauges page aren't working == These require a [[realtime.txt]] file to be uploaded by Cumulus. Tick the "Enable Realtime", "Enable Realtime FTP" and "Enable realtime.txt FTP" boxes on the internet settings screen. If the gauges still do not work, check that the [[realtime.txt]] file is being uploaded to the correct place. If it is not, it is likely that you have specified an incorrect 'ftp directory' in Cumulus. If your 'normal' pages are being uploaded correctly, but realtime.txt is not, then it is likely that you simply need to leave the ftp directory blank (but see the note below first). A possible cause for this problem is that your web space provider does not allow .txt files to be accessed. For example, the free hosting provider 000webhost.com do not.
