Menu configuration file for NEW CuMX template Last modified: 2022/07/05 11:39:38 menu.js - typical name, you define the one used in setpagedata.js
It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that if you customise this file, you create a new file with a different name, e.g. mymenu.js and change setpagedata.js to use that file. This will avoid your customisations being accidentally overwritten during upgrades

An Alternative Default Website
Following on from the development of the current default website, the author of the default website has generated an alternative that is more adaptable and responsive.
It is designed to work on all screen sizes while using exactly the same data that is uploaded to the default website.
It allows your data to be sent to its own sub-folder of the site rather than mixing in with the web pages so makes it easier to manage. It comes with a number of themes or colour schemes that you can implement as required.
To find out more please visit the Alternative Public Website page.
An Alternative Interface
In addition to the existing Interface site used for managing your weather station, an additional Alternative Interface is also available from the author of the default website.
Details of this can be found here: Alternative Interface.
