 * Hi,
 * Firstly thanks for the great plugin, the best for weather that I’ve found on 
   wordpress.
 * Recently the giweather widget doesn’t load properly and displays a timer and 
   the message ‘connection error’.
 * I also get this error on the inspect element console:
 * Failed to parse SourceMap: /wp-content/plugins/giweather/extras/mod_giweather/
   tmpl/js/hammer.min.map
 * Could you please advise as I am running this plugin on several websites at the
   moment.
 * Many thanks

 * I re-installed the plugin and it initially seems to get the giweather widget 
   working again.
 * However when you log out the ‘connection error’ message appears again.

 * Solved this. The problem was actually caused by a setting in the IP Geo Block
   plugin. Whether its a fundamental problem with this plugin or that one, I’m not
   sure.
