It's simple. As a newcomer to our forum, certain anti-spam measures are active for a certain period.
After that you will have full credentials as well as edit options next to your posts.

In my 20 years of xbmc/kodi I've never seen such a childish display of bad taste and vindictive coding.

python 2 is dead, therefor Kodi 18 is dead and it should no longer be used.

please use the Multi Weather addon with Kodi 19 instead.

"Kodi 18 is dead "

What

Kodi 18 is most certainly NOT dead. To say so is absolute ignorance. As long as OSMC doesn't use Kodi 19, I cannot use Kodi 19. As long as many add-ons don't function under Kodi 19, I cannot use Kodi 19. Kodi 18 will be completely relevant and alive until it is no longer used as the basis for major media center distributions like OSMC. I understand ronie's desire to move on, and appreciate all the work he's put into these addons, but to completely remove it from my machine without my permission while it still worked perfectly fine just plain pisses me off! It was the only weather addon I could get to actually work for my city with any level of accuracy, and now I literally have nothing. Rude and uncalled for. Don't want to keep the Yahoo weather addon going? That's fine. Let people know it's unsupported and move on. But let people keep it installed as it was on their system until it actually stops working at least. I don't see what the problem with that is. This just torques me off.

Make sure you turn Yahoo Weather addon auto update off before you install, or you will be updated to the non-working version again.

Thank you for the link. However, I've tried that and after seeing their spinning dots animation for a minute or so, I keep getting an error from the sendfile site.

Download v5.0.7 from link in this post:- https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=169410&pid=3021301#pid3021301
Switch off Yahoo auto update.
Install 5.0.7 and replace default .py with the version you downloaded from this post:- https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3020873
Exit and restart Kodi, should work

It happened today and 2 more times last week, so it is not a big issue right now. Yahoo weather 5.1.0 plus the patched default.py, on kodi 18.9 in libreelec x64 9.2.6.
The reason I used 5.1.0 is because kodi sees it as the latest version and won't upgrade to the broken one. Shall I move back to 5.0.7 and disable auto update just for yahoo weather?
I would move to kodi 19, but I don't think libreelec 10 will be ready before kodi 19.1.

It won't matter soon.  Yahoo are closing down the API that the addon uses on 1st May 2021 and after that date it won't work anyway...
