After downloading and installing the WDC skin with  "wget -O "/tmp/weewx-wdc.zip" https://github.com/Daveiano/weewx-wdc/releases/download/v2.3.3/weewx-wdc-v2.3.3.zip" and installing it per instructions,  the index.html page header and left hand side bar would disappear (readings and charts seemed ok) after an archive update.  No error message in the log.  I did see the header and side bar for a short time but it soon disappeared.
Removing v2.3.3 and installing v2.3.2 seemed to fix the problem.  Weewx 4.9.1 was running
as a container on a docker host.

Hi Jim, sorry for the late response. I am the author of the skin, do you have still problems with running v2.3.3? I could have a look at why the page header and left sidebar are missing.

Its been a while.  But I have just reinstalled 2.3.3 in a vbox docker image.  The problem with the header and side bar seem to be gone but the footer uptime doesn't seem right.  Please see attached.  The vbox image has only been running approx 30 min.

Looks like in foot.inc
that you need
$gettext("WeeWX uptime"): $station.uptime<br />
$gettext("Server uptime"): $station.os_uptime<br />
if weewx is version <4.10.0

There are some other implications see thread https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/J0aF5mzxcrE/m/CrR36ww3AgAJ

Yes that's because of a change in how weewx handles delta times, see here: http://www.weewx.com/docs/upgrading.htm#Breaking_changes_for_skins_that_use_delta_times

I added a short question/answer in the skins wiki about that: https://github.com/Daveiano/weewx-wdc/wiki#faq
