Configuration options:

While optional, you should first setup the DarkSky API so you can enable the forecasts option.

Weather icons, the 8 day forecast and visibility all come from DarkSky's API.

There are a number of options all set as a default within the skin.conf file.

It is recommended that any option you want to override to add it to the weewx.conf

file. This way your changes do not get erased on skin or weewx upgrades.

For example, to add a logo to your site, you would want to open your weewx.conf and

find the Belchertown skin section. Add an [[[Extras]]] stanza and then the logo_image variable

and the location of the logo.

Example:

[StdReport]

[[Belchertown]]

[[[Extras]]]

logo_image = "https://belchertownweather.com/images/content/btownwx-logo-slim.png"

For a list of Extra variables that can be changed, you can look in the skin.conf, or look on the

GitHub repository for the variables and their descriptions.
