hi phil,
there are two parts to the answer:
1) how far into the future should the forecast go
2) how much of that forecast should be shown
for the first part, the default is 28 days. if you want a longer forecast,
change the 'duration' parameter. these are the parameters that control the
forecast generation:
[Forecast]
[[XTide]]
location = Boston
interval = 1209600 # how often to generate forecast. default is 14 days
duration = 2419200 # how far in future to forecast. default is 28 days
max_age = 2419200 # how long to keep each forecast
for the second part, adjust the reporting parameters in the skin. for the
tides.html.tmpl template, this is controlled by this expression:
#for $tide in $tides
...
#end for
this will return every tide value from the current time into the future.
so if you have 28 days of tide predictions, and you do the report on day 1,
you'll see tide values for 28 days.
if you do the report on day 10, you will see tide values for 18 days.
so there are a few ways to "show more tide data"
option 1: set a longer duration. make the forecast generate more data
points, then there will be more to display
option 2: adjust the "interval" parameter. if you generate a forecast once
per day, then each report will always have a full 28 days of forecast data
