I have several sensors which in my observation do not have a counterpart in the extended weewx database schema.

But I still want them stored in the weewx database and have them and their history displayed in the web interface under http://IP-address/weewx

E.g. there seems to be only one (1) field for PM2.5 sensors, however I've got two of the WH41 sensors and the GW1000 provides values for both. I already managed to get one of them displayed in the current conditions and daily chart page (and also making them show on the weekly, monthly, yearly pages is now just a matter a

I suspect that the second simply gets lost as there is no standard field in the database to accommodate them.

In a post in the WXforum Gary mentions several approaches how to store ("archive" in weewx terminology) such sensor values ("observations") in the weewx database.
https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=34857.0

"So in summary the following approaches (in order of complexity) are available:
1. utilise existing but unused database fields
2. use a customised database schema by adding to the existing schema
3. use a customised database schema by creating a new schema
4. use a second database"

I want to go for number 1 but didn't find instructions how (and where) to do so.

Can anyone provide guidance here please ?

Thanks and regards

Rainer
