Your question is not entirely clear to me, but what I think you're asking is how do you gain access to the file names from within the webpage.
The answer is that you can't. Modern web browsers don't allow free access to the file system on the client, so you cannot search to see which files have been generated. Instead, the dropdown list that you see is created at file generation time. The Cheetah generator keeps track of all files that should be there and populates the list with that. If at all possible, you would be best off figuring out some way of migrating your old data to your new weewx.sdb file. Provided the data is still in the flat format used by the database, this should be possible. Have you tried using the "weectl database" utility for adding and removing columns? -tk On Sat, Jul 25, 2026 at 5:58 AM 'Michael Waldor' via weewx-user < [email protected]> wrote: > Both variables are used within Seasons skin titlebar.inc to populate the > month resp. year dropdown.
