I’m trying to set up my weather web page. Looking at the online directions it says:
Let WD Create the page(s)
Click “Setup” in the menu bar.
Click “Setup FTP / Internet / …”.
Click the tab labeled “Web Files”.
When I go to Setup FTP/ I don’t see the “Web Files” tab. Can someone
tell me where it is?!
Also whatever I decide to name the .htm file like plantcitywx.htm, does the URL become Weather Display - the Weather Station software?
Any help would be much appreciated.
that should be setup, then control panel, then you will find the webfiles tab.
The page willl be, in your case kn4lf.com - Tämä WWW-sivu on myynnissä. - kn4lf Lähteet ja tiedot. (which it appears to be!)
Try going to setup then control panel it should there…and to make a link from your site just try something like kn4lf.com of course you need to use the directory you use for Weather Display…Weather Display make 2 files you can modify to your likeing…plantcitywxlocal.html which is the file you would edit to say and look like you want and then the program will update that to the file wx.html or .htm which you choose in the settings…Always point your website to the 1 without the local on the end!! Let me know if I confused you hope not!
Thanks for the responses guys.
Per N7XRD’s explanation it’s still not clear. I have a weather webpage at kn4lf.com - Tämä WWW-sivu on myynnissä. - kn4lf Lähteet ja tiedot. but it’s not auto updating. I have it set to update every 5 minutes but it’s not. Guess I’m still overlooking something.

Are all your web site files in the same folder? and is your server on your own computer? I run mine right from my computer so I just direct the link to the folder where the files are made and updated with Weather Display! If you are uplaoding to the web everyu 15 minutes you might read the bug section I see a few people are having trouble with the uplaoding right now!
the help file needs to be updated…re the change in menu…
also make sure the main internet switch is ON in the connectison setup
and you have ticked, use weather displays own ftpupd.exe, in the connections setup too
and if you are using the customise internet and file creation setup, make sure you have times set to ftp each file, as well as times set to create each file
I appreciate the help posted but bits and pieces don’t help. I’m about to give up on the whole thing and to think that I designed and implemented business e- commerce websites for 8 years.
The software is just to complicated period, without a good help file.
What is needed is a simple but concise A to Z explanation of how to set up the weather web page using the “Weather Display” server.
I have every intention of buying the software but not if I can’t figure out the WX web page setup.
Hi
I spent some time updating the online help files today…as there were a bit outdated…i.e they didnt mention the new control panel.
I am intending on doing a pdf help file, but its going to take some time.
If you coul email me your settings file, then I can see what you have setup, and where you might have gone wrong.
to do that, go action, back up registry entry now, then email me the file
wdisplayftp.reg from the folder databackup
and also email me the file wdisplay.ini from c:\windows or c:\winnt
i am here to help, dont give up, we will get there
