The plugin doesn’t work for me and I posted in the support forum a few days ago and looking through the unsanswered posts there, suggests there is no support for plugin so lowest rating sadly.

The plugin offers many and simple configuration options and does everything you need for the current weather and a forecast over several days – and all without high monthly or annual costs. Simply great.

Very nice and useful Plugin. Easy to customize and works well with openweathermap API Key. The use of expensive ipstack API for Geolocation is not necessary. Customizing CSS in Child Themes CSS works also well. But one thing to mention, when you’re using PHP 8.0 or grater, the API with openweather did not deliver data.

I’m struggling to change some CSS rules.
In wp-content/plugins/wp-forecast/wp-forecast-default.css I make the headers larger and the space between the day blocks larger, it works when I change it live on the browser but it doesn’t when the page is loading again, still works with the old values.
I’m using WPRocket, so I cleared countless times the cache, cleared every possible cache on browsers, deactivated and activated the plugin, erased the plugin, and installed it again….still has the same fucking old values!
The page source code shows that the domain.com/el/wp-content/plugins/wp-forecast/wp-forecast-default.css?ver=9999 is loading, and the file has good large values, but every browser insists to show the old ones.
I spent 4 hours of my precious time without any results. It’s the first time after months that I feel exasperated!
I give it 1 star because there isn’t any lower.

Even though I have Use visitors location checked, it still defaults to Frankfurt. Now it stopped working completely. Useless.
