Hello,
i've added a couple of YoWindow Widgets to my Wordpress.com weblog. I noticed that the displayed time for Rapid City, SD is wrong.
Current time says 5:55 and it should be 3:55. I also have Denver as a Widget and that one displays the correct time.

Aah, i think something went wrong then. Corrected it on my site.
Do you have a easy way to search for these codes so i can verify my other entries?

Hi Oliver,
It is really simple.
Click on YoWindow.com at the top of the forum.
On the right, you will see the widget with 'Free Weather Widget' under it. Click on 'Free Weather Widget'.
Choose your location.
Scroll down the page to see the code which contains the GeoId in it.
It is just that simple.

Re: Wrong time displayed for Rapid City, SD
Yeah i know. Thats how i created the widget codes in the first place But now i have like 10 widget codes in place.
And i want to check the other way around. So just enter the number and see what city belongs to that. Just to verify.

Hi Oliver,
This is how I do what you are asking.
Go up to the Url and key in geonames.org/ followed by the geoid. For example geonames.org/5106529 .
Press enter and it will display the location.
There may be other ways of searching the geoid, but this is the way I do it.
