Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Weather Underground

Version 2.0 got rid of the default settings page; now shortcodes and widgets are configured individually. [Upgrading from 1.x] My forecast looks different Version 2.0 made lots of changes as to how the forecast is displayed. You can download the last update of the "1.x" version of the plugin here: Version 1.2.5.1 [Upgrading from 1.x] My location can no longer be found If your location isn't working any more, follow the steps below: Go to Wunderground.com In the "Search Locations" box, type in your location Click on the location when it appears in the auto-complete box

Copy the part of the URL after the /q/. In this example, it would be zmw:00000.4.17340 Use that as your location in the shortcode, like this: [wunderground location="zmw:00000.4.17340" /] That should work!

Weather Underground has generously donated free API access to users of this plugin. If you prefer, you can define your own API key in your installation's wp-config.php file by setting a WUNDERGROUND_API_KEY constant, like so: define( 'WUNDERGROUND_API_KEY', 'myapikey' ); You can also override the API key using the wunderground_api_key filter, like so: add_filter( 'wunderground_api_key', 'my_custom_wunderground_api_key' ); /** * Use my own API key! * @return string My API key */ function wunderground_api_key( $old_api_key = '' ) { return 'myapikey'; }

If you want to use your own icons, you would add a filter to the bottom of your theme's functions.php file. See a list of icons you should have available. Here's sample code: add_filter('wp_wunderground_forecast_icon', 'use_custom_wunderground_icons', 10, 2 ); /** * @return string URL to the root folder of the icon set. */ function use_custom_wunderground_icons( $url_base = '', $icon_name = '' ) { return 'http://icons.wxug.com/i/c/a/'; }

Please see the "Using your own template" section on the Plugin Github page I'm making changes to the settings, but nothing changes The output of the widget is cached for speed. Add ?debug to the URL and it will refresh. You can also add add_filter( 'wunderground_twig_debug' '__return_true' ); to your functions.php file to disable caching during development. Only disable caching when absolutely necessary; it will slow down your site.
