Title: New API Key Doesn't Work Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # New API Key Doesn't Work * [rqdavis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rqdavis/) * (@rqdavis) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/) * I applied for and received a new API Key, deactivated and reactivated the plugin, and entered the new key, but I receive this message: * Invalid Key (my key here) for WorldWeatherOnline! System: WP:3.5.1 – weaver-ii- pro-3 – PHP:5.3.15 MYSQL:5.1.68-log – Apple Safari 5.1.8 on mac * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/weather-and-weather-forecast-widget/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/weather-and-weather-forecast-widget/) Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) * [Marteens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marteens/) * (@marteens) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602030) * Hi! * Did you ever get this to work? * I got the same problem. I tried to follow [these instructions](https://www.facebook.com/notes/world-weather-online/introducing-faster-more-efficient-and-even-more-reliable-services/451128854963809), but I couldn’t get it to work. I think my problem is in step 2.. * [huwang](https://wordpress.org/support/users/huwang/) * (@huwang) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602032) * I just got it work. Here is how. In the instruction in Marteens’s post, step 2 says to change the API url. So go the the widget source code, change the occurrence of [http://free.worldweaatheronline.com/feed/ and [http://www.worldweaatheronline.com/feed/ to [http://api.worldweatheronline.com/free/v1/. It then works. * Files you need to change are : gg_funx_.php and wweather_widget.php * Good luck. * [Marteens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marteens/) * (@marteens) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602033) * Ok, great thanks! I had only changed the weather_widget.php, so that’s why it didn’t work for me earlier. Now I changed the gg_funx_.php aswell and it works perfectly. * In both gg_funx_.php and weather_widget.php I found two lines with “[http://free.worldweatheronline.com/feed/…”](http://free.worldweatheronline.com/feed/…”); * and I changed it to * “[http://api.worldweatheronline.com/free/v1/…”](http://api.worldweatheronline.com/free/v1/…”); * just like huwang said. So thanks again 😉 * [sierramike](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sierramike/) * (@sierramike) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602035) * So much thanks, I did the same and got it working ! * [treehousecreations](https://wordpress.org/support/users/treehousecreations/) * (@treehousecreations) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602046) * I’m sorry, i’m kinda new at this. Where can I find the source code for gg_funx_. php and wweather_widget.php. * Thanks, Ken * [Dolomats0](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dolomats0/) * (@dolomats0) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602047) * Thank you guy’s that helped me * [J Reswob](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justinb81/) * (@justinb81) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602050) * Thank you this worked for me aswell! * **treehousecreations** the files are located in your plugin directory. ex. /wordpress/ wp-content/plugins/weather-and-weather-forecast-widget/ * [karimchedid](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karimchedid/) * (@karimchedid) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-api-key-doesnt-work/#post-3602057) * Thanks a lot , now its accepting the key , but i am having this message “Sorry!
