-All data is uploaded to the ai2weather.uk/default/ folder as this folder contains the supplied public website as is and that requires data in the same location as the pages.  It has **NO** cmxConfig variable.
+All data is uploaded to the **//ai2weather.uk/default //** folder as this contains the supplied public website exactly as supplied with CumulusMX.
-All other sites; **ai2weather.uk/**, **apw/** and **cmxAs2/** use my Alternative Public Website templates but also use the same data that is uploaded to the default area.
+This requires that the data is in the same location as the pages.  //It has **NO** cmxConfig variable//.
+All other sites; **ai2weather.uk/**, **apw/** and **cmxAs2/** use my Alternative Public Website templates but also use the same data that is uploaded to the default area.  Thus their entries need to point to that location.
 <code JavaScript>
 Data: '/default/',     // Uses  the root and points to ai2weather.uk/default/
-Menu: 'js/ows-menu.js',
 NOAAReportPath: '/default/Reports/',  // Uses the root and points to ai2/weather.uk/default/Reports/

-<WRAP warning border>If I created a folder **//ai2weather.uk/apw/json///** and uploaded my data there, I could change its data location to:
+These settings could be changed to...
+<code JavaScript>
+Data: '../default/',     // Uses a relative path down to the root and back up to default/
+NOAAReportPath: '../default/Reports/',  // Uses a relative path down to the root and back up to default/Reports/

+Each site has other configurations that are different to enable the bar menu, background banner image and logo to be set.  This page **only** deals with the primary settings needed to make your site work.

+<WRAP nicebox red border>If I created a folder **//ai2weather.uk/apw/json //** and uploaded my data there, I could change its data location to:

+<WRAP nicebox orange border>
+If I created  folder **//ai2weather.uk/noaa//** and uploaded my NOAA reports to it from CumulusMX then I could change the NOAAReportsPath to either:
+<code JavaScript>
+NOAAReportPath: '/noaa/', // An absolute path to a folder in the root of my domain
+</code>
+**or**
+<code JavaScript>
+NOAAReportPath: '../noaa/', // A Relative path from my current location, to the root and up to **noaa**.
+</code>
+</WRAP>
+==== The Moon Image ====
+This is always uploaded to an **//images//** folder within the folder containing the data.  Thus its location is based on the same variable as the data.  This means it may not appear in the main //images// folder of the site.  There is no option within CumulusMX to change this.
