## Beschreibung

uk-tides displays tide times and heights for a particular location in the UK.
 The
information that is displayed is obtained from the RSS feed for tidetimes.org.uk(
eg https://www.tidetimes.org.uk/chichester-harbour-entrance-tide-times.rss ) or 
tidetimes.co.uk ( eg https://www.tidetimes.co.uk/rss/chichester-harbour-entrance-
tide-times ). The data is cached until midnight.

This plugin implements a block called UK tides ( uk-tides/uk-tides ).

 * It’s much easier to use than the shortcode.
 * It uses the functionality that was previously implemented as the [bw_tides] shortcode.
 * The block is not dependent upon the oik plugin.

The syntax for the [bw_tides] shortcode is:

[bw_tides
 tideurl=“https://www.tidetimes.org.uk/chichester-harbour-entrance-tide-
times.rss|other – RSS feed URL for location“ store=“1|store key – unique key for
caching result“]

Examples:
 [bw_tides] with no parameters will display the tide times and heights
for Chichester Harbour Entrance. The information will be cached in store=1 until
midnight.

[bw_tides store=bw_tides_pompey tideurl=“https://www.tidetimes.org.uk/portsmouth“]
will display the tide times and heights obtained from
 https://www.tidetimes.org.
uk/portsmouth-tide-times.rss and cache the result in a store named ‚bw_tides_pompey‘

Note: Using the store parameter allows you to display tide time and height information
for more than one location.

Examples:
 If you prefer you can use tidetimes.co.uk as the source for tidal information.

[bw_tides tideurl=“https://www.tidetimes.co.uk/rss/chichester-harbour-entrance-tide-
times“]

## FAQ

### Installation

 1. Upload the contents of the uk-tides plugin to the `/wp-content/plugins/uk-tides‘
    directory
 2. Activate the uk-tides plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress
 3. Whenever you want to produce UK Tide times and heights for the current date use
    the UK tides block.

### How do I find the value for tideurl?

Note: This is not necessary when you use the block, the tideurl is automatically
created based on your selection of Site and Port.

 * Visit www.tidetimes.org.uk,
 * click on the location of your choice,
 * click on the RSS feed icon,
 * copy the URL from the feed

eg for Brighton Marina the value for tideurl is https://www.tidetimes.org.uk/brighton-
marina-tide-times.rss

oder

 * Visit www.tidetimes.co.uk,
 * click on the location of your choice,
 * click on the RSS feed icon,
 * copy the URL from the feed
    eg for Brighton Marina the value for tideurl is https://
   www.tidetimes.co.uk/rss/brighton-marina-tide-times

### What if I don’t live in the UK?

uk-tides currently only works for the UK and Ireland since the information is obtained
from https://www.tidetimes.org.uk or https://www.tidetimes.co.uk
 If you can point
us to a resource for other locations then it should be possible to develop a very
similar solution.

### Isn’t there some JavaScript that does something similar?

Yes. See https://www.tidetimes.org.uk/widgets or https://www.tidetimes.co.uk/widgets

You may find the output harder to (re)style.
