वर्णन

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 [weather_widget_wp_location city="London" title="London, UK"]
.
Customization
You can customize the weather widget however you like. The widget have two styles: minimal & expanded that show different amount of data.
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.
API Key
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.
Also, keep in mind that newly created API keys will need ~ 15 min to be activated and show data, so you might see an API error in meantime.
Caching
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.
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).
Setting the cache setting to 0 will disable the caching – not recommended.

Why the weather data is incorrect at (some) location?

The plugin only display the weather data received from the Open Weather API, we don’t know what the data is and if is correct or not.
-
Why the weather data in the back-end does not match the front-end?

The weather data on the front end is cached (by default) and in the back-end is not, so in rare case it might not match, that means caching works.
