[Question] Weather variables

[VicoHBB]

Hi everyone,I noticed that the weather widget is not working correctly, searching in the files I found that in the user_variables.lua file these variables are blank, (I put the code snippet below) could someone guide me on which API to use and how to put the coordinates?

return {
	widget = {
		weather = {
			--- API Key
			key = "",
			--- Coordinates
			coordinates = {
				"", --- lat
				"", --- lon
			},
		},

		--- Github activity
		github = {
			username = "VicoHBB",
		},
	},
}

@VicoHBB you need to create an acccount at https://openweathermap.org/api, copy your API Key and paste it into the key variable, then look up for your coordinates using google or the GPS of your phone and put those in the 2 pairs of double quotes as indicated, the top one being latitude and the bottom one longitude.

Is there any other step? I have registered and entered my data, but it still doesn't work properly :(

@VicoHBB iirc that's all i did, sorry m8.

I can´t get the weather widget to work correctly.
This is my user settings

return {
	widget = {
		weather = {
			--- API Key
			key = "3565a3982c9a954a87ea9c61793ca206",
			--- Coordinates
			coordinates = {
				"56.663445", --- lat
				"16.356779", --- lon
			},
		},

		--- Github activity
		github = {
			username = "mrmattias",
		},
	},
}

@dmguezjaviersnet Do you create other API key or just use the key by default?

The key that I currently use is the default one. Den mån 26 sep. 2022 15:57VicoHBB ***@***.***> skrev:

For anyone coming to see this in the future the weather widget will no longer work as it calls OneCall 2.5 which has since been upgraded to OneCall 3.0.
When you create an account you now need to subscribe to their plan which doesn't cost anything as long as you make sure your script doesn't call it more than 1000 times per day.
