## Description

Add a **world clock** to your WordPress site in seconds. Choose from five clock 
widget styles — a digital clock, an analog clock, a multi-city world clock, a spinning
3D globe, or a date card. Every clock updates in real time in the visitor’s own 
browser, so there is **no API key, no server calls, and nothing to configure to 
get started**.

Show a single **time zone**, or up to eight cities side by side — useful for remote
teams, travel sites, international stores, and anyone whose readers are not in one
place.

#### Key Features

 * **5 clock widget styles** — Digital, Analog, World Clock, Spinning Globe, Date
   Card
 * **No API key** — times are computed in the browser; nothing to sign up for
 * **World clock** — show up to 8 cities across time zones at once
 * **Spinning globe** — a glowing vector Earth with live city times orbiting it
 * **Gutenberg block** — native block editor with a live preview
 * **Shortcode** — use `[cwiki_time]` in any post, page, or text widget
 * **Themes & colors** — Light, Dark, or Auto, plus any accent color
 * **12 / 24 hour** — automatic per locale, or force one
 * **Localized dates** — weekday and month names in 40+ languages
 * **Lightweight** — loads asynchronously, no impact on page speed
 * **Privacy-friendly** — no cookies, no personal data collected
 * **Credit link you control** — switch it off site-wide or per embed

#### Widget Styles

 1. **Digital** (240×152) — clean digital time + date
 2. **Analog** (200×210) — classic analog face
 3. **World Clock** (264×288) — multiple cities, live
 4. **Spinning Globe** (280×292) — vector Earth with orbiting city times
 5. **Date Card** (240×230) — big date with day of week

#### Usage

**Gutenberg Block:**
 Add a block, search for “World Clock”, and adjust the settings
in the sidebar. A live preview updates as you type.

**Shortcode:**

    ```
    [cwiki_time]
    ```

With options:

    ```
    [cwiki_time style="globe" theme="dark" accent="f59e0b"]
    [cwiki_time style="digital" tz="Asia/Tokyo" city="Tokyo" format="24"]
    [cwiki_time style="world" zones="America/New_York~New York,Europe/London~London,Asia/Tokyo~Tokyo"]
    ```

#### Shortcode Attributes

 * `style` — digital, analog, world, globe, date (default: digital)
 * `theme` — auto, light, dark (default: auto)
 * `accent` — hex color without # (default: 2563eb)
 * `format` — auto, 12, 24 (default: auto)
 * `seconds` — 1 or 0 (default: 1)
 * `date` — 1 or 0 (default: 1)
 * `tz` — IANA timezone for single-clock styles, e.g. Asia/Tokyo (default: visitor’s
   local time)
 * `city` — label shown under a single clock
 * `zones` — cities for world/globe styles: `tz~Label,tz~Label`
 * `lang` — language code for weekday/month names (default: your site language)
 * `branding` — 1 or 0 (default: 1) — show the optional credit link on this embed

### External services

This plugin relies on an external service to render the clock widget: **Currency.
Wiki**, operated by CurrencyWiki Technologies LLC.

**What the service is and what it is used for**

The clock itself is drawn by a small JavaScript widget hosted at `widget.currency.
wiki`. The plugin does not bundle that script; it builds an embed URL and loads 
the widget from the service. This is what allows the plugin to stay small and to
receive style and localization improvements without a plugin update.

**What data is sent, and when**

 * **On every page view where a clock is displayed**, the visitor’s browser requests
   the widget script from `https://widget.currency.wiki/time/v3/script.js`. That
   request carries the display settings you configured (style, theme, accent color,
   hour format, time zone or city list, language) as URL parameters, plus a `source
   =wp` marker indicating the request came from the WordPress plugin. As with any
   web request, the visitor’s IP address and user agent are visible to the server.
 * **No personal data is collected, and no cookies are set.** The current time is
   computed in the visitor’s own browser from the operating system clock and the
   standard `Intl` time zone database — it is never requested from the server.
 * **In the WordPress admin**, the settings screen makes no request to the service—
   it only links to the online builder. The block editor is the exception: while
   you are configuring a block it loads a live preview from `https://widget.currency.
   wiki/time/v3/embed` (flagged `preview=1` so it is not counted as a site using
   the widget), which sends the same display settings listed above.

## FAQ

### Do I need an API key?

No. The time is computed in the visitor’s browser using the standard `Intl` timezone
database. There is nothing to sign up for.

### Does it slow down my site?

No. The widget loads asynchronously and is only a few kilobytes. It does not block
page rendering.

### Does it collect any data?

No. The widget sets no cookies and collects no personal data from your visitors.
See the “External services” section above for exactly what is requested and when.

### Does it add a link to my site?

Only a small “Powered by Currency.Wiki” credit under the clock. You can switch it
off for the whole site under **World Clock  Settings**, or per embed with `branding
="0"`. The widget looks and works exactly the same either way.

### Can I show several cities at once?

Yes. Use the **World Clock** style (up to 8 cities) or the **Spinning Globe** style(
up to 5 cities).

### Which timezones are supported?

All IANA time zones (e.g. `America/New_York`, `Europe/London`, `Asia/Tokyo`).
