Widgets like the weather widget only work when I type "weather" in English, not "météo" in French, so I initially thought it didn't exist.

    Should we add weather triggers to language file? This means you'd have to set interface language to your locale.

    “Weer” and “rekenmachine” (Dutch) also don't trigger the weather and calculator widgets.

    cempack If you change interface english to French does it work then?

        Vlad No it doesn't, I already got my kagi in French.

              eiter that, your search region or based on ip-location.
              I personally think search region would be the best choice because it's also the option, that shows you results in the given language.
              AFAIK people (at least in germany) often use the english inferface language even if they want to search in german.

                Xamrica It would be preferable to avoid IP-based location tracking, especially if you are frequently traveling.

                    cempack yea, true. But i would still prefer selected search region over interface language.

                        Xamrica I agree with you on this one, I like to have my kagi in English but my region is France.

                            When I search, for example, for "weather Milano" I successfully get a weather widget with the correct location. However, the widget does not appear when I perform the above search in my language (Italian), that is "meteo milano" does not display the widget. "Meteo" is the Italian word for "weather forecast". I think it would be nice to have a list of words in other languages that map to the same weather widget, for example searching for "meteo [CITY]" would display a weather widget for Italian users, and so on.


                            The user will naturally and immediately obtain a weather widget in their own localized language, which is actually what most people do when they search in their own language.
