See the first few questions in the FAQ...

You will need to edit the file by hand. The editor can't do this.

Aaaaah. Now I see what you mean. That's a bug in the editor. I've fixed it in the upcoming 0.81 release. You do still need to edit the file by hand to make the links so that they don't overlap though - use offsets on the NODES line or VIA to do that. See the FAQ for more.

had a few tries yesterday evening and got it to work. The links need to be renamed diferently

Thank you

First very useful and great plugin

I've search a lot at the begin how to active the config and the rights.

Why have you not allowed to start weathermap-cacti-plugin-mgmt.php' from "console"? I is easier ....

for the console menu put in the function "weathermap_config_arrays"
....
$user_auth_realm_filenames['editor-config.php'] = 142;
$menu2 = array ();
foreach ($menu as $temp => $temp2 ) {
$menu2[$temp] = $temp2;
if ($temp == 'Configuration') {
$menu2["Weathermap"]['plugins/weathermap/weathermap-cacti-plugin-mgmt.php'] = "manage views";
$menu2["Weathermap"]['plugins/weathermap/editor-config.php'] = "edit views";
}
}
$menu = $menu2;

thanks a lot

PS: I ve converted the icons giben by "phantom_rgs"and add some others, but I cannot upload it because my quota has been reached (because of my plugins). How can I give you them?

0.81 (really soon) has a Weathermaps link, underneath the Graphs and Data Sources in the Management side-menu - better?

I don't want them! Unless you have a clear idea of the copyright license of them, and they are either open source, or public domain, or you have explicit permission from the artist/creator to republish and convert them, you are infringing the copyright of the creator. The ones phantom_rgs posted looked like Microsoft clip art from Visio to me.

I'd be happy to include some decent icons with weathermap, but I really don't need legal complications. I've added an entry in the FAQ pointing to a few places to get icons from, in the 0.81 manual.

Hello Howie

Good new for the icons.
I 've got the OK of Cisco to convert all the icons of
http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac47/2.html
in ".png" and put them later in the forum.
I will do it but I need some time.

PS: If you want do a package direct on your web site to your software it is also possible and free but you have to do request for a "free minimum license agreement".

Thanks to

Sounds good!

I don't mind doing the PNG conversions and transparency if you don't have the time.

I've contacted Cisco about the agreement.

Thanks!

I've just put 0.81 up for download (see my sig for the URL). Here's the changelog. I think I've addresses most issues/bugs described here in the last few weeks.

Code: Select all

0.81 - Added a Weathermaps link to the Cacti 'Configuration' side-menu. Removed 'Manage Maps' link in Weathermap tab. (knobdy)
       File-picker in editor no longer masks on *.conf
           FIXED sort-order bug for imagemaps (Fran Boon)
           FIXED plugin shows same map twice if you have 'Anyone + users' (Fran Boon, again)
           FIXED default bandwidth duplicated field in editor. (qjy2000_cn)
           FIXED now allow TITLEPOS 0 0 (actually, y=0 is useless, but x=0 might be useful) (knobdy)
           Editor still won't upload images, but it WILL let you pick from any PNG files in the images/
             folder, and any images already mentioned in the map configuration file for ICON and BACKGROUND 
                 lines. (everyone and their dog)
           Similar change for DEFINEFONT. You still have to hand-edit to define the font, but after that, the 
             editor will let you pick it.
           Changed the dependency tests to NOT give a warning about particular DLL names.
           Added more dependency tests for specific functions.
           Changes some debug messages to warning, so that they are visible in the logs even without DEBUG on.
           FIXED minor (unreported) bug with sort order in Manage Maps
           Changed most Cacti Plugin code to use Cacti's (logging) SQL functions. Hopefully this will help
             with running down a couple of problems for Windows users.
           More error reporting generally.
           Fixed error when creating multiple links between nodes in the editor (fozzy)
           Docs update - More FAQs and config reference improvements/amendments.
           Added 'Cycle' mode to plugin - automatically cycle between your weathermaps.
