Love your widget - well done. I too, have the problem if I specify a time offset. I am in Australia and the time is GMT 11. If I specify this time it says ‘APOD not available’, but if I leave it at zero it works fine. Is there any disadvantage in not setting an offset?

Another handy plugin I use on some sites for displaying anything random which could be ads/photos/quotes/tip of the day etc is the Ad-Rotator one:
(http://kpumuk.info/projects/wordpress-plugins/ad-rotator/).
I’m guessing that this could be used to pull an image from anywhere too (maybe even resize images?) as it can display any html code.

Best of luck and keep making plugins!

Hi, I came across your APOD a few days ago. Cool widget. Was wondering if it would be all that difficult to have it pull a random image from a folder on a daily basis- just not APOD. Was looking at it morte from a generic pic of the day standpoint. Tried just changing the URL in the code, but I’m thinking theres more to it than that, since that didnt actually work.. Can ya give me a hint as to what to look at?

Thanks!

This widget is so cool! The photos are just every day stuff, but every night w/explanation so we know what we’re looking @. I have looked for scientific/space info for research & this is just what I needed. Thanks!

It works perfectly Paul. Now I have APOD displayed all the time.
The timezone here is GMT 7, so I set the plugin to -7.
Thanks.

@Dhan

I’ve made a minor update to the APOD widget to allow setting an hour offset, so you should be able to adjust it accordingly now.

My Wordpress installation uses local timezone GMT+07
The problem happens when local time shifts from 23.59 to 00.00, it moves to new date and APOD plugin shows “APOD not available”.
Can I set the timezone in the plugin to stay in GMT+00 instead of being carried by Wordpress timezone?

Is there any way to use this plugin without wordpress? I do use the normal version but I would like to be able to use it without wordpress also in a big development project I’m in right now.
