Thanks Mark for making SteelSeries Gauges (and the latest update) available for us.

(And for the patience to me.)

Reinhard, did you just copy over the files into your existing structure or did you replace the whole thing and redo your customisations?

First of all let me say that I prefer Option 2 (from the Wiki). I did replace the whole distribution - into a new folder on the server at the same location as the old "steelgauges" folder was, I named it something like "steelgauges_new". So I could easily compare the changes that I have made on gauges-ss.css, gauges.js and so on. After all working fine in the new folder, I renamed "steelgauges" into "steelgauges_old" and "steelgauges_new" into "steelgauges".
Attached a screenshot of my structure on the web server.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Reinhard

Thanks for the information. I agree with you. Option 2 is a cleaner way to keep it organised. I am going to work on my site now and see if I can remember how to do this. I'll let you know how turns out.

I crawled through the WWW to find others using Steel Gauges - very interesting how versatile those gauges can be used. Attached a few links. Let me know of other links and I will add them to this thread (or would you like to add them to the Wiki, Blick?).

Cheers,
Reinhard

 How does the steal gauges at Breckenridge put the time in the forecast ticker?

You can put whatever tags you want into the ticker, just add them to the forecast entry from
Code: [Select]
"forecast":"Current forecast is -- CF$ --",
to say
Code: [Select]
"forecast":"de$ -- forecast is -- CF$ --",
If you look at my page I have changed it too.
Mark

There is another place that might be nice to mention editing in the Steel Gauges Wiki. In the web_server directory is a file called "steelseriesVWSjson.php". Line 50 is a place for setting ones time zone. The file comes with a setting of "America/Los Angles", I think. If you don't live in the Pacific time zone and you want times translated to your local time, you'll need to change it to a major city in your time zone. Here's a <list of countries/cities> that PHP uses. Since I'm in the Central Time Zone, I just changed the city to "Chicago".

Of course, my page is still not live, so I can't vouch for my "expertise".  [blush] [lol] [banghead] If your site is working the way you want, don't 'fix' what ain't broke! [goofy]

Those that use metric = #1 Measurement system
And the United States = The Banana system

Xair:

As this script was written by Ken True, I assume that it is only used by those who are using the Saratoga Template for their website. My site is a WordPress site and this script does not appear to have any impact on my SteelSeries Gauges. My line 50 is still set on the default of Los Angeles and my gauges look fine to me. The time and date in the forecast window is correct and the dates and times in the popup graphs are all correct for my local time.

The steelseriesVWSjson.php script is for people using the Ambient Virtual Weather Station software.

OK. It's probably noted in the notes somewhere. Only reason I noticed it was because I had gone through the Saratoga files and seen a similar setting. Just follow my last line in my previous message. ;)

Mark:

I have a question and a request.

In previous versions of the SteelSeries Gauges, there was a windrose.js file where one could change the colour of the windrose gradient. In the 2.5x releases this file is no longer part of the setup. I looked at your FAQ and it still refers to the windrose.js file. Where is the setting for wind rose plot colours?

The request is one more plea that you consider including your "altimeter" design for the cloud base gauge in a future release. Reinhard and I are still big fans of that tweak, which we hope you will share before you permanently "put your feet up."

Thanks.
