 * Hello, I have just installed the plugin. I set the API key and created my first
   weather. It looks like I have made all the necessary settings. I put the shortcode
   in the sidebar.
 * Wen I open the home page – the weather wodget starts to load, I see flower like
   icon rotating, but then nothing happens – the field is empty.
 * Please support me with my first weather 🙂

 * It takes several hours before a new OpenWeatherMap API key gets activated. Try
   if it works when you take out your API key again and use the built-in key. Tomorrow
   you can then set your API key again.
 * Also, you need to select the fields you would like to display. See [https://ujsoftware.com/owm-weather-blog/owm-weather-create-your-first-weather/](https://ujsoftware.com/owm-weather-blog/owm-weather-create-your-first-weather/).
 * Hope that helps.
