Probably, nobody in this mailing list can help you with that. That is
because the WIEN2k users that developed and hosted the
add_boltz2_to_w2web package for doing that changed its availability from
public to private.
A long time ago, I think a WIEN2k user mentioned to me in a private
communication that they got a newer version of that package in a
Facebook group after getting accepted to the private group, which should
be at:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/wien2k.Algeria
However, I'm not a member of that group, so I don't know if that is
available or supported there today. You would have to try joining the
group yourself to find out.
If I recall correctly, the add_boltz2_to_w2web package had some plotting
functionality that might have been helpful. However, beyond that it
might not have been so useful.
It is likely better to learn how to use the btp2 terminal commands
instead (that do not use w2web) that are given in the BoltzTraP2 tutorial:
https://gitlab.com/sousaw/BoltzTraP2/-/wikis/tutorial
That is because when users encounter WIEN2k calculations that require a
HPC (high computing cluster) system, those calculations need terminal
commands submitted in a job script:
http://susi.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/reg_user/faq/pbs.html
The add_boltz2_to_w2web using BoltzTraP2 would provide a calculated
result for ZT using:
ZT = σS^2T/ke
However, as you can see, the result is usually incorrect as it neglected
the significant kl contribution:
ZT = σS^2T/(ke + kl)
where
σ is the electrical conductivity
S is the Seebeck coefficient
T is Temperature
ke is the electronic thermal conductivity
kl is the lattice thermal conductivity
Other DFT software such as VASP and Quantum Espresso should be able to
calculate kl using software such as phono3py and almabte:
https://phonopy.github.io/phono3py/
https://almabte.bitbucket.io/
Unfortunately, I have not heard of an interface program for WIEN2k yet
that can calculate kl. You can read about why the WIEN2k kl calculation
was not supported by phono3py at:

Dear users.
Hello everyone
I was wondering if you would guide me how I can add Boltztrap in the
tasks part of graphical interface w2web. I have installed Boltztrap
using the pip command. I have also exported the PATH of boltztrap to
.bashrc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Best regards.
