OK, so if you’re only using one skin, say Seasons, and you don’t have an HTML_ROOT option defined in the [[SeasonsReport]] section, then the Seasons report is going to dump its output into the generic HTML_ROOT as defined at the [StdReport] level. If I have multiple skins defined, then each needs its own HTML_ROOT. For Seasons I could set HTML_ROOT=/var/www/html/weewx/seasons. Then, from a user perspective, I’d access this report by going to http://<server>/weewx/seasons. Same for other reports.
Now if I do that and I don’t have any reports writing to the general HTML_ROOT (/var/www/html/weewx), then if I browse to http://<server>/weewx, I’m just going to get a listing of the various directories there. Is the idea that I handcraft some HTML to put in that directory as the index file that lists my supported skins with links to each? Or is there some way to have WeeWx manage that automatically? Sorry for all the dumb questions. I truly appreciate the assistance here! * Jeff From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Saturday, July 25, 2026 10:02 AM To: weewx-user <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [weewx-user] Re: Historical data in Seasons skin You can have several skins configured and active with weewx. In that case, you will have to define a specific html root folder for each skin. In weewx.conf, for each additional skin enabled, you will have to ajust the "HTML_ROOT" parameter of the skin. For instance, with both Seasons and Belchertown skins activated: [StdReport] # Where the skins reside, relative to WEEWX_ROOT SKIN_ROOT = skins # Where the generated reports should go, relative to WEEWX_ROOT HTML_ROOT = public_html/weewx # The database binding indicates which data should be used in reports. data_binding = wx_binding # Whether to log a successful operation log_success = True # Whether to log an unsuccessful operation log_failure = True # Each of the following subsections defines a report that will be run. # See the customizing guide to change the units, plot types and line # colors, modify the fonts, display additional sensor data, and other # customizations. Many of those changes can be made here by overriding # parameters, or by modifying templates within the skin itself. [[SeasonsReport]] # The SeasonsReport uses the 'Seasons' skin, which contains the # images, templates and plots for the report. skin = Seasons enable = true lang = fr unit_system = metric [[Belchertown]] enable = true skin = Belchertown HTML_ROOT = public_html/weewx/belchertown Le samedi 25 juillet 2026 à 03:06:24 UTC+2, Jeff Allison a écrit : I do appreciate the input here. I am finding myself getting confused about handling multiple skins in WeeWx, so I’m going to pull back, dig into the documentation, and get a better handle on this. * Jeff From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > On Behalf Of Jimi Lawson Sent: Tuesday, July 21, 2026 12:44 PM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [weewx-user] Re: Historical data in Seasons skin This may/may not be of interest, with being in the UK I have no real use for the NOAA reports, although I upload my data to most of usual suspects I don't upload the NOAA reports anywhere.

WIth the daily statistics enabled, the very first run of the skin could take quite a long time, depending on the extent of your historical data, since the skin will have to generate all the daily, monthly and yearly pages.

There you have a "Weather History" section that lets you select a date and it'll show the high/low/average for temperature, dew point, humidity, etc. - Jeff On Saturday, July 18, 2026 at 10:10:53 AM UTC-7 Vince Skahan wrote: When Jeff asked about Seasons skin specifically and statistics I interpreted that to mean text key/value pairs ala the data on the left hand side of the Seasons skin. So I was thinking some javascript addition to view a generated alternate statistics.inc file or the like. But yes Belchertown original + the newer fork both let you scroll nicely in their graphs. Unfortunately you can only scroll backward one item at a time which (to me) isn't what he was asking about.

I was thinking you wanted some web based way to pick a date from a calendar picker or by entering a date in a form then clicking ok. That would need some code to enhance the skin. It would be more efficient to use a javascript graphing library like Highcharts and have it plot data instead of pre-rendering a lot of static graph images. I believe this is the direction they went with the new Belchertown skin. It's just a matter of exposing suitable data and letting the browser do all rendering.

Running weectl from the shell gets you ireports as of that specified date but when weewxd runs the normal reports the next time it’ll revert to current info.
