Kiosk.html not updating about weewx-belchertown

[ChrisM510]

@ThePeePs Thank you! That worked! Not sure what the issue was, but I frankly don't care now. haha

[ChrisM510]

Ping...

[ThePeePs]

what did you change in the template?

[ChrisM510]

Its at the default now. Making changes had no effect...I had to make changes to the kiosk.html file itself that was created during the install.

[ThePeePs]

the kiosk.html.tmpl in the main Belchertown directory is what's used to generate the new kiosk.html page on every achieve loop of weewx. If the changes you are making are outside of the the elements that get updated by the JavaScript from MQTT events, you will need to refresh the page to see the changes.

[ChrisM510]

I know that....thats what I am saying...it is never updating. It made the kisok.html file on install, and that was it. Any recommendations on where to look to figure out what is/isn't going on? (BTW, thanks for replying, I do appreciate it.)

[ThePeePs]

Does the main page (index.html) get updated like it should?

[ChrisM510]

Yes. Literally everything else is working as it should.

[ThePeePs]

are there any errors or warnings in the weewx log file?

[ChrisM510]

Took me a while to parse through it (113MB), but I think I found something (below). Thoughts?

Looks like an #end if might be missing. Since it doesn't say what #if it's looking at, your best bet might be to copy kiosk.html.tmpl from the repo, and replace it with your current one, and see if that fixes it.

And/or compare it to your current one to see if you can find the missing #end if line

[ChrisM510]

I'll give that a try, thanks for your help again!
