Title: Feature Request: My Midnite No Connection Alert
Post by: crunnells on May 15, 2014, 08:33:24 PM
It would be great if, after 24 hours or so, My Midnite would email you to let you know that the Classic(s) is not uploading data. I don't log in to check every day, but I try to check every month and look at the historical data.

It would be really awesome if we could setup an alert when there's no communication between the Classic and MyMidnite, so that we can try to resolve the problem. Even better if we could set the alert manually (after 1 hour up to 24 hours) or something like that.

I'm a web developer, so I'd be happy to help you guys with some of this work if you'd let me. I know you guys are super busy and don't have time for improving this amazing free software. Let's talk!

Yes, indeed. That would be a nice feature.

Really good call on this -- I put it at the top of the alerts list. Still wrestling with som painful javascript at the moment.

Nice, guys. Looking forward to it.

Also looking forward to an API (someday).
