BeachFinder Widget

BeachFinder Widget adds the [beachfinder_widget] shortcode. It renders an iframe pointing to the official BeachFinder widget at https://getbeachfinder.com/widget/beach-conditions.

The shortcode accepts optional parameters for location, display text, language, search radius, result limit, theme and height.

External service

This plugin connects to BeachFinder at https://getbeachfinder.com to display the beach conditions widget. The widget is loaded in an iframe from https://getbeachfinder.com/widget/beach-conditions.

When the iframe loads, the visitor’s browser makes a request to BeachFinder. The request can include shortcode settings such as latitude, longitude, radius, result limit, language, title and theme. Standard HTTP request data such as IP address, user agent and referrer may also be received by BeachFinder. BeachFinder may store the host domain, host page path, widget settings, and hashed IP address and user agent for analytics, abuse prevention and service reliability.

No BeachFinder account or API key is required to use this plugin.
