After upgrading to Joomla 1.7, we lost our weather module and since it is more for appearance than anything else, did not want to spend alot on it. This fit the bill perfectly. I did have two very minor issues which we dealt with in an extremely timely manner. The support was excellent. Thanks for a great extension!

Works great, but on my site I needed some space between the search box and the search button because they were butted right up against each other, which was quite visually unappealing. Developer wanted $75 to fix this, which is unfortunate.

Well I've tried a couiple of these weather modules now and this is by far the best - worth every penny - flexible, customisable.
And yes, you can use all major cities worldwide, there is a comment on the purchase page which says just US cities - ignore it, I'm here in Germany and it works like a dream. Thanks for a great module!

So, I tried a bunch of weather modules and finally decided to buy this one. After all, for $10, maybe they'll have some support to customize it, etc.

The first version was fine. It did everything I needed but I was having a hard time getting it to fit in my template. Rafael was extremely responsive and within a couple of weeks made a new version that allowed some resizing, etc. Now, it is AWESOME.

It only does US weather and you have to sign up for an api-key at weather.com but it is totally worth the effort. This is hands down the best of like 20 different modules that I tried.

Thanks CorePHP!!!

Only US cities possible - sorry, I was expecting far more countries to be available
Owner's reply

It is possible to use international cities. It is not restricted to US only. Here is an example: trabzon.net.tr
