Pablo,
The chart units should also change as well. I already have that on my own skin DivumWX, selected via the side fly out menu.

Oh neat feature. That request was just posted in the Discussion area of New Belchertown repo.

I'm assuming any charts will not change eh?

Nigel,

For the time being find this sub stanza in [StdReport] and set them to the same as mine.

You have actually caught me in the middle of writing a small piece of code to add an additional menu item to new-belchertown ‘Units’ will will allow ‘on the fly’ selection of either US, UK, Metric, Scandinavian, Canadian or Aviation unit sets. I just like the idea of visitors to a site being able to select the units they are most familiar with. I will share when complete.

            # Option "unit_system" above sets the general unit system, but

Thanks for the replies.
I host at home and use nginx as a seperate reverse proxy, nothing other than that (aside from port forwards on my router).
I'll have to dig a bit more myself on the live data not working over the web,  probably an nginx issue.

Ian, I see you have the units displaying on your site how I would like them, any hints on how to get them in the correct format? (Centigrade instead of Fahrenheit and mm instead of inches etc).
It currently looks correct on the web but is 'stale' data, not 'live' data from the loop data.

I made a typo in my original post...
http://www.nthead.co.uk/weewx/ is now correct

http://www.nthead.co.uk/new-belchertown/ was correct

Nigel.

I just noticed you are only using the mqtt _javascript_ from Cloudflare, in that cause you'll need to port forward on your router etc

You need to set the host and change the port, if you open your website over the net then open the console (F12 and click on the console tab) you will see these errors

paho-mqtt.min.js:37 WebSocket connection to 'ws://wx:9001/mqtt' failed:

Since you seem to be using Cloudflare, the port needs to be 80 for websocket or 443 for wss, and the hostname needs to match whatever hostname you are pointing to your mqtt server

I should add to my post above that Chrome and MS Edge are happy with local (LAN) connections and display live data, but not over the web.

I have installed New Belchertown and basically have it running OK.
However, it is displaying US units and what I would like is uk2 style.  That is, a mix of metric and imperial, e.g. wind speed in MPH and temperature in Centigrade and rain in millimetres etc.
How can I achieve that as the mqtt loop data is imperial (US)?
I'm likely missing something, but don't want to meddle as this is above me now.
You can see it here:
http://www.nthead.co.uk/wx (for weewx)
and
http://www.nthead.co.uk/new-belchertown/ (for New-Belchertown) - Chrome and MS Edge don't like to display the live/loop data but Firefox and Safari are happy?!
Any ideas on both 'issues' above?

Regds,
Nigel

Good day,
Another issue I picked up:
As per attachment, this was not the case with the older Belchertown skin.
This only affects sub-pages (Records, Charts, Reports, About) but not the Homepage.

Regards
Anton
