<p>Weather Postin’ retrieves the current weather provided from <a href="http://www.rssweather.com/" title="Source of weather information" rel="nofollow ugc">RSS Weather</a> when your post is published.  After that, when you view your posts the weather conditions will display at the end of your post.  This does not alter the original text of the post; it is only displayed at run-time.</p>
<p>Please note, that posts prior to activation will not have weather associated with them.  Yes, obvious, but worth saying. :o)</p>

<p>This plugin allows you to show the current weather info for any location. You can show the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit units, show wind speed, max & min temperature, weather description, date and weather icon.<br />
You can use this plugin as a block (with a name “Weather Widget WP”) in the WordPress block editor in a page, post or as a widget in a sidebar, or as a shortcode – example <code>[weather_widget_wp_location city="London" title="London, UK"]</code>.</p>
<h4>Customization</h4>
<p>You can customize the weather widget however you like. The widget have two styles: minimal & expanded that show different amount of data.</p>
<p>When using the custom block, click the gear icon (top right) to show the settings, under Customize Style there numerous settings to style the widget in order to match your website style.</p>
<h4>API Key</h4>
<p>The plugin gets the weather data from Open Weather API, so you will need to have account & API key to use it. If you don’t have an account follow the instructions in the plugin settings page to setup an account.</p>
<p>Also, keep in mind that <strong>newly created API keys will need ~ 15 min to be activated and show data, so you might see an API error in meantime</strong>.</p>
<h4>Caching</h4>
<p>You can utilize the caching feature from the plugin settings page, to save (cache) the weather data for number of hours, so you don’t exceed the you API free tier rate too fast.<br />
This is enable by default, so the weather data on the front-end might not match the back-end editor (this is because of the caching).<br />
Setting the cache setting to 0 will disable the caching – not recommended.</p>
