The update is: There is no update at this time.
Once I start converting my free add-ons, it will appear in the XF 2 resource area when it's ready.

I loaded up the addon and only my admin avatar shows the flag. No other members flags are showing. Can anyone comment on a fix for this? Thanks.

Once a user visits, and the cron runs then the flag should show.

Ozzy is close, except users need to visit the site and be logged in for their flag to show.
The cron task just updates the GeoIP database once a month.

Check your data/countryflags folder and be sure the GeoLite2-Country.mmdb file exists.
If it doesn't try manually running the "Update GeoIP Database" cron task to see if it gets downloaded to that folder.
Even if it does exist, try running the cron task to update it. The file may be corrupt.

If you're viewing your site with a proxy, the proxy IP address is being picked up. Though I try to pick up Opera proxies, this could also be true if you're using Opera on a mobile device. And your provider may also be using an automatic proxy which is impossible to detect.
If you're not, then the IP address hasn't been updated at MaxMind yet. I have no control over that.
EDIT: There is one more time the wrong IP address can be picked up and that's if the IP address being returned is the IP address of your site's server. That's a server configuration problem that I can't help with. It's been known to happen most often with nginx.

Now you had to know it was coming. I stopped selling my XF1 add-ons eons ago and now the free XF1 add-ons are no longer available.
I thought you switched to XF2 anyway???
[OzzModz] Country Flags by IP Address
is there any difference with when/how/how frequently this version updates compared to the XF1 version? we didnt have any issues with the XF1 version, but this version seems to be changing flags far more frequently, with more "incorrect" flags (though i know they are IP driven). wondering if...

Everyone may not delete their XF1 add-ons, they may just mark them as unsupported. But in the long run I feel deleting them is better to completely avoid support requests for unsupported add-ons.
