    Hi am trying to automate a weather widget to display the weather for a particlular city, or the displayed city… Is there a shortcode or a global variable for the city, Country i can use to replace the $locationcity in the weather widget?

    Hi,

    you can get the current location with the function 

    geodir_get_current_location();

    example:
    add this within the widget code:

    $current_location = geodir_get_current_location(array('echo'=> false));

    and use the variable :

    $current_location;

    wherever needed.

    Thx
