Belchertown - suppressing graph=homepage >

[David Levine]

When I look at https://belchertownweather.com/graphs/ there is no ?graph=homepage present.  When I comment out, rename or remove the [homepage] section in graphs.conf, an error is generated to syslog and there's nothing displayed on my site at /graphs/ . 

I can add other sections such as [yesterday] but I've not found the magic to remove.rename homepage. 

What am I missing? Running the new 4.3 version of weewx and latest Belchertown skin.

Thanks but that does not seem to be the situation I’m encountering.  

I can’t seem to remove/rename [homepage] in graphs.conf

Why do you wish to remove it, what are you trying to achieve? I'm a little confused sorry

Using https://belchertownweather.com/graphs/ as a reference, none of the links are to graph=homepage, There are links to graph=all, graph=day, graph=week, ... No graph=homepage.  If I remove the [homepage] section in graphs.conf,  an error is generated to syslog and when I go to .../graphs/ I get no graphs displayed on that landing page. 

Not to complicate things further but if leave [homepage] and change the button to say Today, I get an acceptable approach, but then I'd like to remove the [day] section as it seems to be a duplicate. If I remove [day] I also seem to get no graphs generated on the .../graphs/ page. 

If it helps, this is where the generated pages are getting FTP'ed to from my local Raspberry pi - http://www.levinecentral.com/weather/graphs/ 

If I comment out [day] in graphs.conf, http://www.levinecentral.com/weather/graphs/ won't show any graphs between the buttons and footer.

I wanted to close this out as I identified the cause of my trials and tribulations but you have to read a bit to get to it. As a recap, I wanted to remove Homepage and have Day, Yesterday, Week and Month graphs displayed like at https://belchertownweather.com/graphs/

The default w/o graphs.conf or with graphs.conf.example copied to graphs.conf results in Homepage, Day, Week, Month & Year.  Homepage and Day are the same graphs with the default config. As I read in https://github.com/poblabs/weewx-belchertown/wiki/Belchertown-Charts-Documentation , [day], [week], [month] & [year] must be present. Ok, that's fine so I should be able to delete [homepage] and add [yesterday] - piece of cake. Well that didn't work with an error being thrown to syslog and no graph on the front page. 

Next I read in the same charts documentation page to use the following in the weewx.conf file to override which graph set is displayed on the home page: highcharts_frontpage_graphgroup = week.  Well, that just didn't work for me. After many dozens of weewx.conf adjustments w/ stop & start and with many, many, many Belchertown/graphs.conf adjustments, I couldn't figure out what wasn't right. Today I looked at the source code and found what was tripping me up... the override parameter name should be highcharts_homepage_graphgroup and not _frontpage_ as the documentation has. Once I made the adjustment with highcharts_homepage_graphgroup = day in weewx.conf, I was able to successfully remove [homepage] from graph.conf. 

This is the second time I got tripped up by the documentation using a different/outdated override name. I'll do another source code pull request to adjust the documentation to match the current source. Anyway, on to the next adventure.

Nice detective work, well done sorting it!

Does your site have a public address?Curious as to what you actually did in changing the belchertown setup. I still don't  follow what the results of the changes are that you made.

Out of the box http://www.levinecentral.com/weather/graphs/ will show buttons for All / Homepage / Day / Week / Month / Year . Homepage and Day pages are both for the current day and show the same thing so I wanted to suppress Homepage. I copied graphs.conf.example to graphs.conf and then removed [homepage] but there were errors. You can remove [homepage] from graphs.conf but need to add highcharts_homepage_graphgroup = "day" in weewx.conf in the [[Belchertown]] / [[[extras]]] section.  I then added [yesterday] and some additional graphs to each of the graph groups.
