The shortcode can be included in Posts, Pages and Text Widgets. The shortcode allows you to set your own title and whether or not to show a graph with it. Example Shortcode: [USGS location=’09080400′ title=’Great Place To Fish’ graph=’ show’] ## Screenshots * [[ * Site Code Search By State * [[ * Admin Page * [[ * Showing USGS Data as a Widget * [[ * Showing USGS Without Graphs in a Post ## Installation #### Using The WordPress Dashboard 1.

Enter [USGS location=’09080400′ graph=’show’ title=’The Title’]. The location is the Site Code for the station, graph is set to ’show’ to show the graphs, the title is what you want to display as a title. If this is blank it will display the location name. ### How do I find the Site Code? You can find the Site Code quickly and easily by searching for it based on state in the easy to use Site Code Search tab on the plugin settings page. ### Why is the data not updating? There is a built in cache for the data. The data will update every 15 minutes in order to help with site speed and limit the calls to USGS. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ca22fb307b235fe107b9962e6307837175445b28364916b21b9285d74b971061? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-31413/)󠁿 [Kevin](https://profiles.wordpress.org/torahboy/) 4 An t-Iuchar 2021 Thanks for the dedication.
