FAQ

Is there a detailed reference manual coming with the widget?
It is very easy. All you have to know about customizing and setting the widget is written in the manual. But if you need additional information write in the support.

Can I change the weather icon set?
Of course. Search the web, or draw your own icons and overwrite the default iconset. The deafault icon size is 57x57px

Can I change the weather background?
Yes, you can. The deafult height is 230px. You can overwrite it, in the img library

Does the widget slow down my side? How can I prevent this?
The weather forecast of a given location normally doesn´t change fastly. I built in a cache in the plugin.
This helps in two things: The server of esotanc.hu doesn´t have to handle too many quests for weather data and your site should speed up a little bit, because your user will see the cached data!
