[SanketDG]

From what I grasp, whatever you enter as "New Delhi" in the form is actually expecting a integer.

[devkapilbansal]

@SanketDG but form provides me with a drop down menu only.

[devkapilbansal]

I will open an issue for this too soon

[Kajol-Kumari]

@KapilBansal320 can please verify once if it's working for other cities listed in the dropdown?

[devkapilbansal]

@Kajol-Kumari issue arises for other cities as well.

Opened an issue for this at #1121

[devkapilbansal]

@Kajol-Kumari @vj-codes can you provide me with a way to solve this. As libraries like django-cities-light and django-easy-pdf don't support Django 3 yet.

Or should I search for their alternatives now.

[SanketDG]

Yes, django-cities-light is in sad state of affairs, please try to look for alternatives.

[devkapilbansal]

At first, I am testing this repositories to find for bugs and to understand it better. Please look at issues opened by me too.

[devkapilbansal]

Unassigning at this moment. Will look into this if I found better alternatives.
