    Yeah, don’t follow that guide, it’s much easier than that. ??

    All you need to do is add a Text widget to your widget area of choice at Appearance -> Widgets in your blog’s Dashboard, then paste the code from https://www.surfline.com/widgets2/create_widget_forecast_b.cfm?id=3309&layout=v&wid=45489 into that Text widget.

    I thank you for your help,it worked just fine. I know have another problem. Last night playing around I took that widget code and put it into a zip file and downloaded it to my site. I now have an area I did not know existed what I thought was below my footer. I have another surf forecast and can not find where it is located to remove it.
    My site I am trying to build is Coastalpropertiesofmexico.com You can see it at the bottom of the page.

    Ah, it looks like maybe you added that to your theme’s footer template?

    Check Appearance -> Editor in your blog’s Dashboard and look for the code in the footer template.

    Or, if you haven’t customized your theme files besides that, just reinstall the theme.
