@@ -25 +26 @@
 == Installation ==
 1. Upload/activate the plugin.
-2. Add the “Spelhubben Weather” block or use the `[spelhubben_weather]` shortcode.
+2. Go to **Settings → Spelhubben Weather** and set defaults (place, shown fields, layout, providers, cache time).
+3. Add weather to your site in any of these ways:
+
+= Block (Gutenberg) =
+- Edit a page/post → click **Add block** → search for **“Spelhubben Weather”**.
+- Optional: override defaults in the block sidebar (place/lat,lon, layout, map, forecast).
+
+= Shortcode =
+- Insert `[spelhubben_weather]` anywhere shortcodes are supported.
+- Examples:
+  - Basic: `[spelhubben_weather]`
+  - Compact with map & animation: `[spelhubben_weather place="Gothenburg" layout="compact" map="1" animate="1"]`
+  - Inline no map: `[spelhubben_weather lat="57.7089" lon="11.9746" layout="inline" map="0" show="temp,icon"]`
+  - Detailed + daily forecast (5 days) + provider mix: `[spelhubben_weather place="Umeå" layout="detailed" forecast="daily" days="5" providers="smhi,yr,openmeteo"]`
+
+= Classic Widget =
+- Go to **Appearance → Widgets** → add **Spelhubben Weather**.
+- Configure per-widget options (title, place or lat/lon, fields, layout, map, forecast, days, CSS class).
 
 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
+
 = Where does the data come from? =
-From public APIs such as Open-Meteo, SMHI and Yr/MET Norway (depending on your settings).
+From public APIs such as Open-Meteo, SMHI and Yr/MET Norway. You choose providers under **Settings → Spelhubben Weather** or per block/shortcode/widget via the `providers` attribute.
 
 = Do I need an API key? =
-No, but for Yr/MET Norway it’s recommended to include contact info (email/URL) in the settings (User-Agent).
+No. For Yr/MET Norway it’s recommended to include contact info (email/URL) in **Settings → Spelhubben Weather → Yr contact/UA** so your User-Agent is compliant.
+
+= Block, shortcode or widget — what’s the difference? =
+All three render the same UI. Use the **block** in the block editor, the **shortcode** in classic content areas, and the **widget** in sidebars (Appearance → Widgets). Each lets you override global defaults.
+
+= How do place and coordinates work? =
+If `lat` and `lon` are provided they take precedence. Otherwise the plugin geocodes the `place` string (e.g. `place="Umeå"`). Set a global default place in settings.
+
+= What fields can I show/hide? =
+Use `show="temp,wind,icon"` (comma separated). Defaults are set in settings.
+
+= How do layouts work? =
+Choose `layout="inline|compact|card|detailed"`. “Detailed” supports the multi-day forecast row.
+
+= How do I enable the map and set its size? =
+`map="1"` shows a Leaflet map (OpenStreetMap). Control height with `map_height="240"` (px). Global defaults exist in settings.
+
+= How do I enable animations? =
+`animate="1"` adds subtle UI animation. Global default is in settings.
+
+= How do I get a daily forecast? =
+Set `forecast="daily"` and `days="3–10"`. Example: `forecast="daily" days="5"`.
+
+= Can I mix providers and get a consensus? =
+Yes. Set `providers="smhi,yr,openmeteo"` (order doesn’t matter). The plugin calculates a simple consensus across available providers for the displayed fields.
+
+= Caching — how long is data stored? =
+Responses are cached with WordPress transients. Change TTL (minutes) in settings. Clear by saving settings or changing attributes (which creates a new cache key).
+
+= Does it work without JavaScript? =
+Yes, rendering is server-side. The map (Leaflet) requires JS.
+
+= Translations? =
+The plugin is fully translatable. Strings are available on translate.wordpress.org. Ship `.pot/.po/.mo` in `/languages`.
+
+= GDPR / privacy? =
+The plugin does not set cookies by itself. If you enable the map, Leaflet/OpenStreetMap tiles are requested client-side. Mention OSM in your privacy notice if needed.
+
+= Troubleshooting tips =
+- Nothing shows: check that at least one provider is selected in settings.
+- Wrong location: provide exact `lat`/`lon` or a more specific `place` (e.g. “Uddevalla, SE”).
+- Map not visible: ensure `map="1"` and that your theme/container is wide/tall enough; increase `map_height`.
+- Rate limiting: reduce refreshes or increase cache TTL.
