Unknown Country Flag

Please let me know who will fix the above issue because I think the admin of this plugin is not well…

Please read the other posts before posting the same issue over and over again.

I posted a new topic with detailed instructions on how to fix this yesterday, but apparently it was deleted already. The new MaxMind databases do work with the current version of Slimstat if you manually upload the correct file to your host. I guess even though I can answer your question, no one is allowed to offer support in this forum (which seems to defeat the point of having a forum in the first place).

@nurban, could you please upload it somewhere?

I saw your original post but never thought they would delete it.

Thank you so much for your help!

Hi, I followed the tips Nurban wrote. Deleted the newest Slimstat version I had installed.
Deleted manually, with Filezilla, the folder “wp-content/uploads/wp-slimstat”.
Installed an older version of Slimstat, via “https://pluginarchive.com/wordpress/wp-slimstat/v/4-8-7-3”
Installed this and renamed GeoLite2-Country.mmdb, which is implemented in the file GeoLite2-Country_20200128.tar.gz (This is downloadable on https://www.maxmind.com/ after registering) to maxmind.mmdb.
After changing the name I uploaded it with FileZilla to the directory wp-content/uploads/wp-slimstat and now the countries can be seen again. Lucky me.

Don’t know what happens when I update the Slimstat Plugin. I’ll try that later on.
Good luck and thanks Nurban for the solution as long as it lasts.

Hi there.
Just updated Slimstat to the latest version and everything still works.

Roel, the plugin will delete an existing db you manually uploaded to the plugins upload dir when it decides that it is outdated. As the download of the new db now fails, geolocation will break then.

To install the proposed MaxMind license key support manually for now as a workaround, see https://github.com/slimstat/wp-slimstat/pull/5#issuecomment-583119369
