daily.json.tmpl should be in the following location:
/etc/weewx/skins/Standard
I assume that's where you are editing it?

I've just had a thought..
After updating the json file, did you restart the service or (by preference) reboot your Pi?
Andy
Dammit, no! I'm changing it in /var/www/html/weewx
let me go change it over THERE.
I'll be back, with good news I'm sure, lol
This is just the folder ready for upload.. that's why it gets overwritten each time (with the one from /etc/weewx/skins/Standard)
Hopefully that's your problem
Andy
It was...I'll go crawl away in shame!
Thanks again for all you do. At least now it's documented where that file lives. Maybe save someone else the embarrassment. hehe
Oh well, have a good night...or early morning for you. Go to bed!
Great!
I'm glad we got it sorted..
Yep time for bed (01:15)
I'm up at 6am
Andy
Where do I put this ?
In the web server root.
Andy
Ok that makes better sense
daily.json isn't being generated and I am assuming it needs to be referenced in a file to do this but for the life of me I can't find any mention of this in your first post where to make that edit. Help ?
There is quite a bit of ‘post install’ configuration to be done to configure weewx
John Hoke posted some detailed instructions here:
Andy
If you really get stuck then I have a Pi disk image with this all configured (except you need to update the json file with the new one)
Let me know if you want a copy.
Andy
Can't do a image as its on a production PI.
Can't you just grep daily.json.tmpl in the Standard skin and see where its being generated at ?
I'm sorry, it was a long time ago that I set this up and linux is not my thing.
I can only really support the driver that I wrote.
Perhaps @bptworld or @SmartHomePrimer can be of more help
The thread that I linked to previously was what I used to setup things originally (I think!)
Andy
Found the missing instructions you need to add...
First of all this can be added to ANY theme not just the Standard.
Download the daily.json.tmpl into the theme you are using and follow below.
Edit your theme skin.conf
Add
[[[json]]]
template = daily.json.tmpl
Somewhere around other templates that are being generated at. Save and restart weeWX or wait for the next generation of templates.
Thanks for the info
After doing this, is everything working for you now?
Andy
Yup......
Except all your ° was translated into �C or �F
So maybe the file needs to be edit and saved as UTF-8
Can you add that info in the first post so others won't have to search the thread for the answer ?
Done
