emoncms documentation and definitions

Could someone please guide me as to where I can find basic definition documentation.

Looking for;

All the Visualisations definition... i.e. what each is supposed to do and what feeds they require.

Process definition, and the calculation that sits behind them..

I have been looking at https://github.com/openenergymonitor/documentation but this is really scarce.

This page https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms gives nice instruction, but all the links at the bottom..

An Example of more advanced custom dashboard setup
A list with screenshots of available visualisations

lead to blank pages at http://emoncms.org/site/docs/dashboards

It really hard to create dashboards without any documentation to explain the elements that exist now in the current release version of emoncms. Any help is very much appreciated, if only a pointer to where the documentation is, as of now every search has come up with blank or incomplete info.

Thank you, Tim.

I agree with Tim about the lack of documentation for configuring dashboard in emoncms. I have only had my emonpi for 2 weeks I have watched all 6 videos on setting up the emonpi and found them helpful but.  Once I started setting up my own dashboard I did find that there are a lot of settings that are not covered in the videos and that I couldn’t find beginners guides to in the forums

Hello all,

I'll take that as a no then, that there are no further instructions or even simple definitions of all the types of visualizations and widgets created on emoncms.

Is there a possibility that someone could post the correct links for

An Example of more advanced custom dashboard setup (http://emoncms.org/site/docs/dashboards)
A list with screenshots of available visualisations (http://emoncms.org/site/docs/visualisations)

as on https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms

Thank you,

Tim.
