Hello! I have been trying to get the food channel to work. I installed the food channel around Februrary 2024 and I looked around the menu and didn’t use it for a while until recently I wanted to try to open it again. However, whenever I open it, it gives me an error in Japanese and when I translate it, it doesn’t show an error code and instead it just has a message and then it says, “error code” instead of showing an actual error code. I have linked my account and enabled the pizza channel, I have set up WiiConnect24 and I also got the forecast channel and news channel to work. I deleted the save data for the food channel too. I don’t know what else to try. Thank you for reading! Edit: Also, would deleting the wad and redoing the patcher help since my version is almost a year old? The error that pops up when I open the channel looks like this: ``` An error occured on the server. Please wait a while and try again. error code ``` ---

if that doesn’t work delete the save file make sure to backup the save with an sd card before deleting the demae channel save data. NOTE: to reinstall it just install the new wad, you do not need to delete the old wad first, just go ahead and install the new wad ---

If what i saw last when i looked at the status, the channel is under maintenance due to a change in the dominos api ---
