    Hello,

    First of all I must say that I love this plugin, great work!

    My question is.. how could I add the forecast for several days into a post/page? I'd like to keep the sidebar widget short and clean with some general information (that's done) and a more detailed forecast in a specific post.

    Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

    Mike

    from developer:

    manually edit your template
       file and put the wp-forecast function where you want your weather
       data to show up.
       Example:
    
    <ul>
    <li>
                     <?php if(function_exists(wp_forecast)) {
                       wp_forecast( <widget_id> );
                     } ?>
                 </li>
    </ul>
    
         You have to replace <widget\_id> with the choosen widget id.
         For the first widget use wp\_forecast("A"), for the second
         wp\_forecast("B") and so on.
         In most cases it is advisable to put the call into a div environment.

    hello crz,
    from version 2.4 on there is a shortcode built into wp-forecast.
    you can just put [wpforecast id="A"] in your post and the widget is displayed in an iframe not slowing down the rest of the post.

    cheers
