Ps I just did another edit. I stopped weewx and did an edit on weewx.conf to change the lat long to 2 decimal places and change the units on altitude to foot not feet and did a restart. After 10 minutes I called up the page and it still is Santa workshop with the same data. How do I get it to read the conf file and update the html file that displays the data? Thank you for the help.
