The same goes for geolocation data. The extension doesn't use the keys for geolocation either.

Duplicate of #41, but maybe a new release should be made soon as possible?

[netphantm]

yeah, I didn't find that one, cos it's closed..

Got an Open Weather API key and can't add/enter the key in the extension as it says it's invalid. I've copy-pasted it from the Open Weather email and it's not accepted - there's no way to actually test the key validity - no button to click etc - it just shows a triangle with a pling (!) in. I've waited the several hours to let them make it valid. I guess that's probably why it isn't saved anywhere. Either way, that feature doesn't work at all.

Same on Fedora 40 Workstation. I tried use dconf to set key but no luck.

In the comment thread there, about 2 weeks ago, penguin-teal, the owner of the repo said a release will be soon. Is there any update on this?

Based on #51 (which presumably fixes this issue), this worked for me:

gsettings --schemadir ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/openweather-extension@penguin-teal.github.io/schemas set org.gnome.shell.extensions.openweatherrefined custom-keys "['', '<key>', '', '']"

Facing it on Fedora 40 Gnome

Just tried @jhpratt solution (using my API key) for openweathermap.org and it works.
