<p>Weather information is pulled from the OpenWeatherMap API. This plugin adds a widget that can be dropped into any sidebar, can be customised to suit your theme and won’t hit any usage limits.</p>
<p>The widget can be configured as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>API key – required to get weather data from OWM, once entered it will be saved and auto filled in future widgets</li>
<li>Country – choose the country to get weather data from. (Some countries do not have an average result for weather conditions)</li>
<li>City – Enter the name of your area to recieve the weather results. If you want to use City ID, go to <a href="http://openweathermap.org/help/city_list.txt" rel="nofollow ugc">OpenWeatherMaps City List</a>.</li>
<li>Display Mode – you can choose to show either a compact view of the current weather or show the forecast for the current day and next three days.</li>
<li>Colour Style – Choose between two styles of colouring:
<ul>
<li>Style 1 – Primary colour: Background colour of current weather and font colour of forecast, Secondary colour: Font colour of current weather and background colour of forecast.</li>
<li>Style 2 – Primary colour: Font colour for both sections, Secondary colour: background colour of both sections.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Primary colour during day – use the colour picker to choose what primary colour you want during the day time.</li>
<li>Primary colour during night – use the colour picker to choose what priamry colour you want during the night time.</li>
<li>Secondary colour during day – use the colour picker to choose what secondary colour you want during the day time.</li>
<li>Secondary colour during night – use the colour picker to choose what secondary colour you want during the night time.</li>
<li>Show Temperature in Celsius – sets the temperature display to degrees celsius rather than farenheit.</li>
<li>Show weather breakdown – choose whether to display the wind, humidity and written weather condition, as well as the temperature and weather icon.</li>
<li>Show Wind Speed in mph – sets the wind speed display to mph rather than km/h.</li>
<li>Cache Time – this is the interval in minutes before the plugin refreshes the forecast data.</li>
<li>Output CSS – toggle whether the widget should output it’s own CSS.</li>
<li>Show Credit Link – this plugin is offered completely free of charge. If you’re feeling kind please leave this in to send some delicious web traffic our way 🙂</li>
</ul>
<p>You can override what gets displayed for the location by filling in the widget’s title text.</p>
<p>For info on how to use the shortcode, check the FAQs.</p>
<h3>Known problems</h3>
<p>Multiple shortcodes do not work if they are in the same post, as the data is stored based on the widget ID if displayed in a widget space or the post ID if using the shortcode.<br />
A new shortcode attribute has been added allowing you to add a unique ID to your shortcode which will be used to store data allowing multiple shortcodes per post.</p>
<p>This widget should work in all themes, although some themes styling will mix with the widget leaving bits that look out of place.</p>
<p>IE7 does not support the icons we use for the weather display.<br />
Works in IE8+, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.</p>
