I'm trying to install a plugin, but it's not accepting the API key. The product owner says my hosting must have "fsockopen()" enabled. Can someone help me with this?

Hey Kathy...here is the unhelpful response I got, I copied in my request!

GregRobs about 4 hours ago Hi, I have purchased a program called "Azon Authority".
They have some plugins I need to be able to use...I got this message:

"Thank you for quick response. I have tried but failed to activate your Azon Authority plugins. Would you please double check with your host if they have disabled “fsockopen()” for security reason? If so then ask them to enable this since this is required for activation of Azon Authority plugin."

Could I get a one time dispensation to get this done?
Thanks

Greg Website Help about a year ago Hi Greg,

We don't allow security plugins because we perform Wordpress tailored security measures that make these plugins redundant and they add unnecessary load to the server and performance reduction to your site.

Feel free to get back to us if you require any further assistance.

This could be due to WA not allowing certain connections (a security thing). I suggest you contact support explaining and ask for one-time access to install the api key. :)

Thanks Kathy, I'll do that very thing! :)

You're welcome! :)

Well, I've sent my request, let's see what happens;-)

Support are usually pretty fast responding, not sure about at the weekend though.

I've been following the training "

It depends on exactly what you're trying to achieve and what your domain registrar where you registered the domain permits. Rich.

I was hoping to set up a 301 redirect as per Pobman's training. But it looks like I wont be able to do this as uk2.net don't appear to allow this!
No matter, I'm not sure it will help anyway.
I'm still reeling a bit, wrote a page 4 days ago and am now top spot page one of google for the search term! 4 days to number one...quite incredible - I must be doing something right as I have 72 subscribers to boot!
Thanks for your input @Rich

I could use a little guidance!

I've been trying to spruce up my site and now the comment boxes has disappeared from some of my posts/pages.

No dunces here just students :)

thanks tommy, sometimes I find myself whizzing along, others I'm stumped by the simplest things!

Go into the page or post and click on Screen Options (top right) and tick the boxes marked Discussion or Comments, etc. Rich.

Duh, what a dunce ... Sooo simple thanks @RICH

LOL, not at all. It's not exactly obvious. R.

Hey rich my particular template doesn't have that option what do I do?

You must be editing a Page or Post for this to work. It's rare that my ticking the Discussion and/or Comments boxes in Screen Options it doesn't add checkboxes beneath the editor window that lets you control this. However, it might be theme dependent, so also check Appearance > Themes and then any options to the right of the theme thumbnail image. Also, Settings > Discussion. Rich.

Okay I found it and I ticked off the boxes but it still is not showing up?????????????

OK, if you've ticked the boxes in Screen Options, you'll now see that it's added a section "Discussions" underneath the editor window where you can control whether or not comments appear. :) Rich.
