Show live weather on any page or template with a native Gutenberg block—no iframe embeds and no API keys in the browser.
4WP Weather fetches current conditions through WordPress (REST + server cache), stores your OpenWeatherMap key safely in the admin, and renders a clean widget you can style with block colors, typography, and spacing.
A plugin by 4wp.dev.
Perfect for
A sidebar or footer weather snippet with temperature, humidity, wind, and more
Landing pages that need local conditions without a third-party widget
Block themes and Full Site Editing layouts
Editors who want icon + text labels per field, editable inline in the block
How it works
Install and activate 4WP Weather.
Open 4WP Weather in the admin menu → Providers, add your OpenWeatherMap API key, and save.
Insert the 4WP Weather block in the editor.
Pick a widget template (Small, Compact, or Advanced) and style (Dark or White).
Choose which parameters to show and how each label appears (icon, icon + text, or text).
Publish—the block loads data on the front end via your server.

Privacy
The API key is stored as a WordPress option and is not exposed to front-end HTML or JavaScript. The block calls forwp-weather/v1/weather; PHP performs the remote request. See External services below.
4WP is our project brand; the letters “WP” appear only as part of that brand name, not as a reference to WordPress. This plugin is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by WordPress.

External services
This plugin connects to the OpenWeatherMap Current Weather API to fetch conditions shown in the weather block, admin live preview, and optional JSON-LD.
When a visitor loads a page with the block (or when an administrator uses the live preview), WordPress sends a server-side HTTPS request to https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather. The request includes:
Your stored API key (appid query parameter), configured in the admin.
Geographic coordinates (lat, lon) from block settings, browser geolocation when the visitor allows it, or a default location you configure.
Or a city name (q) when location search is used.
This plugin does not send visitor IP addresses in the API request. OpenWeatherMap may log requests according to their own policies. Responses are cached on your server (WordPress transients) to reduce repeat API calls.
