GeoIP API Issue

    Hello,

    I actively use this plugin on many of my websites. I was having trouble with country dialing code determination function due to frequent API issue. This issue has been resolved with the last update. The official latest version of the plugin uses the ipwho.is API. This API works fine but has a monthly quota. You can view this situation at https://ipwhois.io/pricing.

    Since my websites exceeded this quota, the automatic country detection function stopped working on my websites. That’s why I went into a new API research. Finally, I found a really free API and started using it on my websites by integrating it into the plugin. Currently this API works without any problems.

    The reason why I am writing this article is to offer a solution to those who have the same problem. My request from the plugin developer is to test this API and publish it as an official plugin version. You can access API information from the address below.

    Kind regards,

    -YBS

    Kindly update the plugin version. You will get a new API URL.
