Great idea for a plugin and nice sales display.
I could not get the plugin to work, even with a working API. Just got a connection error. There are literally no instructions and its widget-based.

The function “gw_load_icons_fonts_path()” is misleading, it is hidden inside a dynamically loaded ZIP, so that you can’t find it, and it actually doesn’t load any paths, it just displays the copyright, which is only hidden via JavaScript otherwise…
https://plugins.trac.www.ads-software.com/browser/giweather/trunk/extras/lib_giweather/language
The ZIP is hidden inside a language folder… which is just more effort to disguise the copyright text.
This is at least bad practice… if not worse.

The plus of this weather widget is that it has many options for different icons of the intraday weather. So I found the right one for my site.
Although it works great for me it has a few minor flaws:
There is a language option but it get’s a bit mixed depending on the browser settings of the client I guess.
I would prefer more options to hide just a single bit of weather info like “Pressure” but that’s a nice to have.
What I’m missing most is that there should be a different icon for “light rain” and “moderate rain”. At the moment they look the same as far as I can tell.

Tried most of the weather widgets available. This one ticks all the boxes for me thanks. Very easy setup as well

I don’t mind paying for plugins. But I hate it when developers are not upfront about costs. The free version does not work. I keep getting an error message. I tried resetting the API thrice, it still doesn’t work.

Very nice plugin who is very simple to add on the website with multiple choice for the look you want.
I really appreciate the possibility to add the name of the city as mine is a very little town who never existe. So just chose the main city in your area and add your city name.
ATTENTION: a very important notice is missing for a good installation!

This plugin has worked great for me on multiple websites, and I would say its the best free weather plugin currently available.
Ensure you have the most up to date version otherwise openweathermap data will not be accessible (after a recent change by openweathermap).
I highlighted this issue and the developer got back to me immediately, informing me of the issue and that it was fixed in the new update.
Highly recommended.
