Display current NOAA\/weather.gov observation data using Elementor widgets and shortcodes.<\/div>\n

One8 Weather Data Fields is a lightweight utility plugin that fetches current observation data directly from NOAA’s weather.gov API for your configured location. No personal data is sent to NOAA. Requests include a standard User-Agent identifying the plugin.<\/p>\n

The free\/core plugin displays current observation fields such as temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, visibility, station details, and current condition icons. It provides the data through Elementor widgets and the [weather_field]<\/code> shortcode so you can style and integrate it in your own layout.<\/p>\n

Forecasts, radar maps, alerts, marine data, tides, lunar data, and climate data are not included in the free\/core plugin.<\/p>\n

Features<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Fetch and cache current weather observations from NOAA\/weather.gov<\/li>\n
  • Drag-and-drop Elementor widget for current observation fields<\/li>\n
  • Use a simple shortcode, e.g.: [weather_field key=\"obs_temp\"]<\/code><\/li>\n
  • WP-Cron-driven caching, with an admin option to force refresh<\/li>\n
  • Developer hooks and filters to modify API URLs, cache TTL, and output format<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Usage<\/h3>\n

    1. Configure Your Location<\/h3>\n

    After installing and activating One8 Weather Data Fields:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Go to Settings -> One8 Weather Data Fields<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Enter your Latitude and Longitude<\/strong> (e.g. 40.6413<\/code>, -73.7781<\/code> for JFK)<\/li>\n
    • (Optional)<\/em> Use the ZIP code lookup on the Coordinates Lookup<\/strong> tab to auto-fill your coordinates<\/li>\n
    • Click Save Changes<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • (Optional)<\/em> Click Refresh Weather Data Now<\/strong> on the Manual Refresh<\/strong> tab to force a fresh fetch from NOAA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      2. Using the Elementor Widget<\/h3>\n

      If you use Elementor:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Open any page in the Elementor editor<\/li>\n
      • Look for the One8 Weather Data Fields<\/strong> category<\/li>\n
      • Drag the Weather Field<\/strong> widget onto your page<\/li>\n
      • Select your desired Field Key<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Use Elementor’s styling options (typography, color, padding, etc.)<\/li>\n
      • You can use multiple Weather Field widgets on the same page<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Each widget includes Elementor’s own Before<\/strong> and After<\/strong> text options<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        3. Using Shortcodes<\/h3>\n

        Use the [weather_field]<\/code> shortcode in any post, page, or widget.<\/p>\n

        Examples:<\/strong>
        \n– Current temperature: [weather_field key=\"obs_temp\"]<\/code>
        \n– Current wind gust with fallback: [weather_field key=\"obs_wind_gust\" fallback=\"No gust reported\"]<\/code>
        \n– Current wind (speed + direction): [weather_field key=\"obs_wind_combined\"]<\/code>
        \n– Station code: [weather_field key=\"obs_station_code\"]<\/code>
        \n– Current icon as an image: [weather_field key=\"obs_icon\" type=\"icon\" class=\"my-weather-icon\"]<\/code><\/p>\n

        By default the shortcode uses the station selected by the plugin for your configured coordinates (or your optional station override in Settings).<\/p>\n

        Supported optional shortcode attributes are before<\/code>, after<\/code>, fallback<\/code>, type<\/code>, and class<\/code>.<\/p>\n

        Available Shortcode Fields (Current Observations)<\/h3>\n

        Use the [weather_field]<\/code> shortcode with any of the following key=\"...\"<\/code> values:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • obs_temp<\/code> – Observed temperature at the reporting station<\/li>\n
        • obs_dewpoint<\/code> – Dew point temperature<\/li>\n
        • obs_humidity<\/code> – Relative humidity (percent)<\/li>\n
        • obs_wind_dir<\/code> – Wind direction (e.g., “NW”)<\/li>\n
        • obs_wind_speed<\/code> – Sustained wind speed<\/li>\n
        • obs_wind_gust<\/code> – Peak wind gusts (if reported)<\/li>\n
        • obs_wind_combined<\/code> – Combined wind direction and speed<\/li>\n
        • obs_pressure<\/code> – Atmospheric pressure<\/li>\n
        • obs_visibility<\/code> – Horizontal visibility<\/li>\n
        • obs_wind_chill<\/code> – Wind chill temperature (if reported by NOAA\/weather.gov)<\/li>\n
        • obs_heat_index<\/code> – Heat index value (if reported by NOAA\/weather.gov)<\/li>\n
        • obs_desc<\/code> – Textual description (e.g., “Partly Cloudy”)<\/li>\n
        • obs_time<\/code> – Timestamp of the last observation<\/li>\n
        • obs_icon<\/code> – URL to the icon representing current conditions<\/li>\n
        • obs_station_code<\/code> – Official station code (e.g., “KJFK”)<\/li>\n
        • station_name<\/code> – Full name of the reporting station<\/li>\n
        • station_elev<\/code> – Elevation of the reporting station<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Privacy<\/h3>\n

          This plugin fetches public weather observation data from the National Weather Service (NOAA) at api.weather.gov<\/code> to display observations for your configured location. No personal data is sent to NOAA.<\/strong> Requests include a standard User-Agent identifying the plugin.<\/p>\n
