Weather API to display the current weather for a location of your choosing as well as the forecast for the current and next day. The simplest way to insert the shortcode into your page or post is to use `[current_weather location="your location here"]` to get the default implementation, which would be your current conditions with forecast and location shown using standard units. The full list of shortcode attributes is: * location - Use a city, state; zip code; WOEID; etc. * units - Either f, for standard, or c, for metric. * show - True, if you want to show your location. Default is true. * forecast - True, if you want to show the forecast. Default is true. * condensed - True, if you want to show the condensed version. Default is false. == Features == * Choose any location worldwide. The plugin will determine your location's WOEID for you. * Use either standard or metric units. * Show or hide the location. * Show or hide the two day forecast. * Condensed version showing icon, temperature, conditions, and location only. * Custom title text. * Multi widget. * Simple shortcode. == Installation == 1.
