Sonder Weather code doesnt exist for my city

Post by Exoity »

Im not sure why but every way I look my weather code is either not available in any website or its too long for the program to accept, i saw someone else have a problem with a different skin that suggested they use the yahoo weather url to get the data from but i cant quite figure out how to do it since the strings are different (obviously) :(

If this is the skin in question ( https://www.deviantart.com/apexxx-sensei/art/Sonder-778937140) ,then it does not work because the weather source used is deprecated as of 01/15/2020.
Now most weather skins that use weather.com as a source ,use the latitude and longitude of the location, they no longer use weather codes for locations.
You can find weather skins here:

You can find the weather in the Panel and TextItems folders and both work (I tested) after you enter the coordinates in the settings (Personalization) and refresh the skin manually.
