AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
ICIT Weather Widget is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 4 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by interconnectit — established developer track record
Cons
- −Average rating below 4.0 (3.0★) — read recent low-star reviews before committing

Weather information is pulled from the OpenWeatherMap API. This plugin adds a widget that can be dropped into any sidebar, can be customised to suit your theme and won’t hit any usage limits.
The widget can be configured as follows:
API key – required to get weather data from OWM, once entered it will be saved and auto filled in future widgets
Country – choose the country to get weather data from. (Some countries do not have an average result for weather conditions)
City – Enter the name of your area to recieve the weather results. If you want to use City ID, go to OpenWeatherMaps City List.
Display Mode – you can choose to show either a compact view of the current weather or show the forecast for the current day and next three days.
Colour Style – Choose between two styles of colouring:
Style 1 – Primary colour: Background colour of current weather and font colour of forecast, Secondary colour: Font colour of current weather and background colour of forecast.
Style 2 – Primary colour: Font colour for both sections, Secondary colour: background colour of both sections.

Cache Time – this is the interval in minutes before the plugin refreshes the forecast data.
Output CSS – toggle whether the widget should output it’s own CSS.
Show Credit Link – this plugin is offered completely free of charge. If you’re feeling kind please leave this in to send some delicious web traffic our way 🙂
You can override what gets displayed for the location by filling in the widget’s title text.
For info on how to use the shortcode, check the FAQs.
Known problems Multiple shortcodes do not work if they are in the same post, as the data is stored based on the widget ID if displayed in a widget space or the post ID if using the shortcode.
A new shortcode attribute has been added allowing you to add a unique ID to your shortcode which will be used to store data allowing multiple shortcodes per post.
This widget should work in all themes, although some themes styling will mix with the widget leaving bits that look out of place.
IE7 does not support the icons we use for the weather display.
Works in IE8+, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.
