Hi,

The problem is that whilst the database schema you are using may know about 
extraTemp8 and soilMoist5 the WeeWX unit system only knows about extraTemp1-
extraTemp7 and soilMoist1-soilMosit4, you need a little python code to have 
extraTemp8 and solMoist5 recognised by the unit system. Try adding the 
following code to extensions.py (you will find extensions.py in 
/home/weewx/bin/user or /usr/share/weewx/user depending on your WeeWX 
install):

import weewx.units
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['extraTemp8'] = 'group_temperature'
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['soilMoist5'] = 'group_moisture'

Save extensions.py and restart WeeWX. You should now have units and 
formatting on extraTemp8 and soilMoist5. If you are interested the section 
Customizing 
units and unit groups 
<http://weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#customizing_units> in the Customization 
Guide <http://weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm> covers this.
