This is PHP Network Weathermap fork, version 1.x. The PHP Weathermap was originally by Howard Jones (howie@thingy.com). As Howie has scaled back his Cacti plugin development work, we will release this version that incorporates his core framework from the 0.98 version. In future releases, we will look to incorporate subequent releases of the WeatherMap core.
See the docs sub-directory for full HTML documentation, FAQ and example config.
See CHANGELOG.md for the most recent updates, listed by version.
See COPYING for the license under which php-weathermap is released.
This version only works with Cacti 1.2.x onwards. A re-write of the user interface is being made to make it more compatible with 1.2.x and 1.3.x releases.

Given the large scope of Cacti, the forums tend to generate a respectable amount of traffic. Doing your part in answering basic questions goes a long way since we cannot be everywhere at once. Contribute to the Cacti community by participating on the Cacti Community Forums.
For Network Weathermap's core support, there is much more information along with tutorials and updates available at Howard Jone's site:

This version of Weathermap only works with Cacti 1.2.x and above only. beta, yet non-production use at this time.
The location of backgrounds and object images has changed! The upgrade script will attempt to move these backgrounds and images to the new locations, but you may have some cleanup to do especially if you customized the locations.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Additionally, in this version, you will not be able to
install this plugin if you have not copies config.php.dist to config.php
and properly created the output and config directories. It is highly
suggested that they be set to a location outside of the Cacti Web Root.
They must also be owned by the web-server.
WARNING: Before upgrading make ensure the poller account can move config file images into into the plugins various images directories. Fail to do so may result in corrupted config files.
NOTE: The directories: cacti-resources and editor-resources have been removed
in favor of the standard js and css folders. You should remove these
folders after installation.
WARNING: Since previously the WeatherMap Editor had essentially no security, this version will be 100% dependent on the Cacti Security model to authorize users.
NOTE: The Overlib library dependency has been removed in this release.
When reviewing the plugin in detail, there were so many possible enhancements that could be incorporated into the tool, but for now, it's really just to bring the Weathermap plugin fully into the Cacti 1.x and beyond.
