常见问题:
Does the plugin require an API key?
No. Version 2.2 calculates the Moon phase, moonrise, moonset, astronomical dawn, and astronomical dusk locally. No WeatherAPI key or external astronomy data service is required.
Why do I need latitude and longitude?
Moonrise, moonset, dawn, and dusk are location-specific. Version 2.2 uses the configured latitude, longitude, and timezone to calculate the correct local values. The settings page includes Location Lookup and Use My Current Location helpers to make this easier.
What happens when upgrading from an older API-based version?
After the update, WordPress admins will see a notice asking them to complete the new location settings. The widget will display a safe setup message until latitude, longitude, and timezone are saved. Use Location Lookup or Use My Current Location from the settings page.
Why might times differ from Timeanddate.com or other services?
Moonrise and moonset times can differ between services because of location precision, elevation, terrain/horizon assumptions, atmospheric refraction, and calculation methods.
Does the plugin include Moon images?
Yes. Eight Moon phase images are bundled locally inside the plugin package.
Does the plugin include a Gutenberg block?
Yes. The plugin includes a dynamic Gutenberg block with editor controls for location label, date, title, and display options.
