What is the URL to your weather website showing the issue? I'll take a look...

Best regards,

The issue is that your CUtags.php is not uploading via Cumulus. Looking at CUtags.php?sce=dump shows my 'sample' tags from my station in 2011 as the data. With JavaScript enabled on your site, the data from realtime.txt is updating some of the old data on display with the current data from your station.

Looking at http://station.swaleweather.com/wxstatus.php shows the FTP for the CUtags.php is not being done. Check your settings in CumulusMX for the FTP upload of the tags file. It should process and upload CUtags.php to your website every 5 minutes.

Best regards,
Ken

Copy the CUtags.txt from the CU-plugin.zip distribution into your C:\Users\Adam\Desktop\CumulusMX\web directory.

Then do the setup with:

Local Filename: C:\Users\Adam\Desktop\CumulusMX\web\CUtags.txt
Remote Filename: public_html/CUtags.php
Process: checked
Realtime: unchecked
FTP: checked
UTF-8: unchecked
Binary: unchecked

That should get the weather data updating on your site. Check it by viewing wxstatus.php on your site.

Your gauges-ssT.html does not need to be 'realtime'. In fact, it only needs to be done once! So you could untick everything for that entry, it would only need to be done again if you change any of the 'boilerplate' text such as station name, location etc.
