I know the Multiweather is down or broken. I have tried to add the Git. addon and have done so successfully. But when I try and add my location through the setting in the addon I can't make it work. I need some help or direction. Thanks, Mike.

If automatic location is wrong, disable it, then click on Location 1 and type yours, then click OK.

I have got this far, as in get into settings and put my City, State, & Zip into location 1. Then when I hit ok nothing happens. When Multi weather was working I followed this same procedure and it always worked. I have even done a clean install, then deleted Multi weather and then installed Gismeteo, went thru the same settings process and nothing? I know weather is not imperative, I just like having it. I guess one question would be, in the illustration are you saying leave the current location on or off? Thanks, Mike

It tells you to simply enter the nearest large town, it doesnt tell you to put state or zip, maybe thats your issue? Works fine for me.

I have always used City, State, And Zip. I tried my city only and same result. I will try a large city near me next and see if that works. It looks as though I am the only one having this problem, so it must be me. I doesn't work on my shield or my android box either one.
Thanks, Mike

You could enter a location on the URL below, then copy the number after the location in the URL address bar, and paste just that in Kodi along with Location in Expert:

Well, this is not Multi-weather anymore, this is Gizmeteo, its not gonna work the same as your used to. It doesnt recognize states or zip codes, it recognizes towns, like it says when the keyboard opens.

On top of where it says 'disable', 'uninstall', there is a button called 'use'... make sure the 'use' button is clicked.

I can use some assistance with the broken weather program. How can I fix it?

Go to the 'add ons' category, look at the bottom and find 'search add ons', and type in 'gismeteo'. This is the add on you are replacing the broken one with. So hit install, make sure its 'enabled' then go into 'configure' and put your city in, then make sure you have the 'use' button also clicked. Im a very novice and i was able to do it.
