NOTE: This feature is only available in version 1.8.8 build 871 and greater


The file strings.ini allows the customisation of the forecast, including the webtag, if you have opted to have the forecast generated by Cumulus. By default Cumulus will provide a list of 28 possible forecasts. By editing the strings.ini file you can change the wording of these or translate to another language.


In the folder where you installed Cumulus, you will find a file called samplestrings.ini. Take a copy of this, leave it in the Cumulus installation folder, and name it strings.ini

The file contains all the strings used for the forecasts, example:

forecast23=Precipitation at frequent intervals

you could change to

forecast23=Rain again


You must restart Cumulus if you make changes to the Strings.ini file while Cumulus is running


A variety of translated files are coming soon in the other Languages section
