Can we replace "United States of America" with the State (territory) name?

    Is there a CSS or PHP change we can make to change “United States of America” to the actual State (territory) name for display on the widget?

    My site is for small businesses & events in the US and everyone here knows what country they’re in, but it would help to see the State name listed next to the city, since I cover multiple states within the US.

    Thank you for your help and GREAT WORK on this plugin!!

    Hi Matt,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    So what you are looking for is US City name, US State

    No mention of country. Is that correct?

    Thanks

    Also may I have a link to your website where our widget is currently installed?

    Thanks

    Hi Apixu!

    To answer your questions…

    1) yes – instead of it displaying “Creston, United States of America”, I need it to show “Creston, Iowa” – which is the City and State, respectively. The country is implied so it is redundant to display it in my case.

    2) unfortunately my site is not live yet because I need to fine-tune some of these issues before I open it to the public. I have included a screen-shot since I cannot list the URL. I hope this helps you see what I am trying to accomplish. SCREENSHOT

    Thank you very much for an EXCELLENT plugin!

    *notice, I have also removed the “+” before the temperatures via the PHP file. These are not required in the US and it helps to simplify the visual appeal of the widget, in my opinion. 🙂

    Also, once I am done with my site and open it to the public, I will be honored to let you use it in a showcase of how the plugin is used on real sites.

    Any word on this? I’ll go ahead and remove the location field with CSS until I hear back. Thanks!

    Hi,

    We have made LIVE a new version which now allows you to set location display format. Please update the plugin.

    From the settings of Apixu Weather widget you can now choose the location display format.

    Please do share any feedback or comments you may have.
