 * Recently plugin stopped working. No longer recognizes ANY cities. Short code 
   and widget do not work for any cities.
 * I only see a text alert block where the weather widget should be “No Weather 
   Information Available”.
 * I tried to delete and reinstall.
    I tried to delete and recreate new API keys.
 * Nothing seems to work.
    Please help.

 * Here is the short code that I used:
 * [awesome-weather location=”Branson” text_color=”#ffffff” background_by_weather
   =”1″]
 * This short worked fine for 8 months. Now it does not recognize the city. When
   I change it to Chicago or Paris, it still does not recognize.
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks

 * Can you try adding the owm_city_id this might help:
 * `[awesome-weather location="Branson" owm_city_id="4378219" text_color="#ffffff"
   background_by_weather="1"]`

 * I’m still waiting with this issue, really need a fix. The city id doesnt work
   because we serve weather widgets dynamically and by address data (city, state,
   country names)
 * We do it dynamically so cant find the city id everytime
