​The upgrade process does not touch the skin subdirectory.

That's the one. I used to be a fan of setting things in skin.conf but these 
days prefer to override in weewx.conf. The skin.conf increases the risk of 
losing user chnages when upgrades occur. Especially the case with 
extensions. weewx.conf is not immune to it (losing customisations) but no 
matter what you always get a backup of weewx.conf during an upgrade.

Thanks for the replies. I mean the weewx generated 'standard report'.
I've also just seen that the 'weewx.conf' section for [StdReport] 
[[StandardReport]] [[[Units]]] Groups has a 'group_pressure' entry 
that is set for 'mbar' so I'll try setting that when I get home. (I assume 
that this overrides other settings on the report template itself - and 
assorted files.)
Isn't it always the way that you look and look, then ask the question and 
see the answer right in front of you!

[Andrew Milner]

setting Group pressure to hPA in skin.conf should do the trick if you are 
referring to the weewx generated pages - or you can force the unit change 
in just one particular field in the template using the dot notation.

What do you mean by 'web output'? The values display on the weewx generated 
index.html (for instance) or what is published to the likes of, say, WOW? :)
