[GNC] Help getting online prices

Fri Aug 7 09:53:34 EDT 2026

I'm having a similar problem; ukfunds not working, ftfunds not working.
Appending a :GBP or :GBX suffix to the ISIN hasn't helped. Updating to
Gnucash 5.16 and FQ 1.70 hasn't helped.

I don't understand the reference in the previous post to FTfunds.pm. I
can't find that file in my system and wouldn't know how to update it.

Can anyone explain or has anyone found another solution?

Screenshot below, with illustrations for one ISIN but I get the same with
all ISINs I have tried.
