<p>Ventus allows you to easily embed the <a href="https://www.windy.com" rel="nofollow ugc">windy.com</a> widget on your website, in the form of a native WordPress widget (accessible from Appearance > Widgets) or as a simple shortcode.</p>
<p>It is a lightweight plugin built using an object-oriented approach, and follows <a href="https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress-Coding-Standards" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress Coding Standards</a>.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Set the overlay to either clouds, CO concentration, currents, radar/lightning, rain, sea temperature, snow cover, standard temperature, waves, wind or wind gusts.</li>
<li>Use either Celsius or Fahrenheit as the temperature scale.</li>
<li>Set the width, height and border-radius using responsive (%) and/or fixed (px) values.</li>
<li>Manually define longitude and latitude for precise location coordinates.</li>
<li>Select the altitude from surface up to 13.5km (effective only when layer is set to wind or temperature).</li>
<li>Choose from 8 levels of zoom (min. 3, max. 11).</li>
<li>Show or hide pressure isolines, the map marker and spot forecast.</li>
<li>Choose from the following wind measurement units: beaufort (bft), kilometers per hour (km/h), knots (kt), meters per second (m/s) and miles per hour (mph).</li>
<li>Choose from the following forecast models: ECMWF, ICON, ICON-EU, GFS and NEMS.</li>
<li>Set the forecast time from now to 12 or 24 hours ahead.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Shortcodes</h4>
<p>The shortcode accepts up to 16 attributes. You can simply use <code>[ventus]</code> and it will work (or the old shortcode <code>[weather-map]</code> which will continue to work), but you will most likely want to customise the remaining attributes yourself.</p>
<p>An example of a fully filled-out shortcode would be:</p>
<pre><code>[ventus width="100%" height="350px" radius="20px" loading="lazy" lat="53.199" lon="-7.603" zoom="4" layer="wind" level="surface" scale="C" units="knots" pressure="true" marker="true" model="ecmwf" forecast="true" time="12"]
</code></pre>
<p>The attributes can be set as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>The <code>width</code> attribute accepts any valid CSS property for width.</li>
<li>The <code>height</code> attribute accepts any valid CSS property for height.</li>
<li>The <code>radius</code> attribute accepts any valid CSS property for border-radius.</li>
<li>The <code>loading</code> attribute accepts either lazy or eager. The default is lazy loading.</li>
<li>The <code>lat</code> attribute must contain a string of digits to three decimal places, in the range of -90 to +90 (e.g. “53.199”). </li>
<li>The <code>lon</code> attribute must also contain a string of digits to three decimal places, in the range of -180 to +180 (e.g. “-120.894”). </li>
<li>The <code>zoom</code> attribute must contain a number between 3 and 11 (inclusive).</li>
<li>The <code>layer</code> attribute accepts the following values: clouds, cosc (CO concentration), currents, gust, radar, rain, snowcover, sst (sea temperature), temp (standard temperature), waves and wind.</li>
<li>The <code>level</code> attribute (only effective when the layer is wind or temp) accepts the following values: surface, 100m, 950h (600m), 925h (750m), 900h (900m), 850h (1500m), 800h (2000m), 700h (3000m), 600h (4200m), 500h (5500m), 400h (7000m), 300h (9000m), 250h (10000m), 200h (11700m) and 150h (13500m).</li>
<li>The <code>scale</code> attribute accepts either “C” or “F”, defining Celsius and Fahrenheit respectively.</li>
<li>The <code>units</code> attribute accepts the following values: bft (beaufort), km/h (kilometers per hour), kt (knots), m/s (meters per second) and mph (miles per hour).</li>
<li>The <code>pressure</code> attribute can be set to true to display pressure isolines, otherwise the isolines will remain hidden.</li>
<li>The <code>marker</code> attribute can also be set to true, otherwise it will remain hidden.</li>
<li>The <code>forecast</code> attribute can be set to true to display the spot forecast, otherwise it will remain hidden.</li>
<li>The <code>time</code> attribute accepts the following values: now (the default), 12 (12 hours from now) and 24 (24 hours from now).</li>
<li>The <code>model</code> attribute accepts the following values: ecmwf, icon, iconEu, gfs and nems.</li>
</ul>
<p>Note that in the case of an invalid value, a default value will be used instead.</p>
