@92merc,
I have attached my CUtagsT.txt which has the webtags so if you use that as your source for Cumulus to process and then upload as CUtags.php you should be a next step further.

Enjoy,
Paul

Thanks Paul. That seems to have done the trick. My status page is showing all 4x4 Current. And the version is now showing right.

Now if I can just figure out the nws-rssfeed.xml part, that is the only other thing not working at the moment.

I have the Steel Gauges "setup". But I'm not sure how to get the PHP file added. I can see everything fine on the sample HTML page.

http://beta.bismarckweather.net/gauges-ss-basic.htm

But if I use the gauges-ss-basic-inc.php file into a new wxgauges.php file, all I get is a single column.

You aren't loading the gauges-ss.css style sheet into your php page.

I'm closer, but the top bar says offline, even though the counter counts down and the gauges update.

And the gauges are still too large. Making them not go into 3 columns.

Well, this Noob just finished switching my Saratoga templates to live. Then I dumped VWS, VVP, VPLive from running. Let Cumulus1 go straight to my serial port. Then I jumped straight to Cumulus MX. Everything looks good so far.

A few more tweaks to my pages, and I think I'll be really happy.
