Recently this plasmoid is not working. In journal I have these errors:

In Archlinux many plasma package names have been changed with "5" suffix Or maybe Yahoo has changed something.
Yapstocks also just stopped working for me, both in Arch and Neon. In both systems the Yapstocks window is blank. Stock lookup is working, though. So I am assuming that it is connecting to Yahoo Finance.
I have tried uninstalling Yapstocks, then reinstalling it. That did not fix the issue.
@librehat Which API no longer works? Does that mean YapStocks stopped working for good? :'(
@librehat if you're open to it, it looks like the Yahoo APIs could be somewhat easily replaced with CNBC's APIs. No idea what their Terms of Service are though, I just scraped these from their main page. They don't seem to require any authentication, cookies, user agents, etc. right now.
Some symbols like Futures and Indexes use different syntax than Yahoo, ^DJI vs .DJI, so people would have to reconfigure their widgets.
# search quotes

# get multiple quotes
# multiple symbols joined with "|"
# when a symbol is unchanged (+0.00, +0.00%) , `change` and `change_pct` become the string "UNCH"

#not sure about Profile call
Also /www.marketwatch.com is easier.
For example: VALUE=$(curl -sS https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/TSLA | grep '<meta name="price" content="' | cut -d'"' -f4 | sed 's/$//g') PERCENT=$(curl -sS https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/TSLA | grep '<meta name="priceChange" content="' | cut -d'"' -f4)
The Cinnamon Desklet "Yahoo Finance Quotes" had stopped working, but again works. There is now a "Custom User-Agent header" in the configuration. It includes "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/115.0". I'm not sure if something like this would be useful for Yapstocks.
Anyway, in the mean time, I switched over to Cinnamon until this issue is resolved.
Sorry no, I don't really have time to do any major changes to this project
If that's the case I suggest you mention something about it not working in the description and that you have no time to update it; maybe someone else will be interested to maintain it or fork it; it's a great little applet :)
I've updated the readme. I'll soon mark this project as archived
Thank you all for your support when it worked :)
