I’m the one who couldn’t use this plugin because couldn’t update cURL. I moved the wordpress installation to another host with updated cURL, and now when I activate the plugin I get this error:
Fatal error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[’ in /var/www/vhosts/XXXXX/denki/wp-content/plugins/wp-discourse/lib/utilities.php on line 23
The problem with that is that version won’t be getting any updates. I made it for someone who’s forum broke after upgrading the plugin - the plugin now requires php >= 5.4. The plugin is supposed to give a helpful error message when it’s installed on anything less than that. I’ll fix that error message today, and also try to add a warning about curl when the forum URL begins with https. Php 5.3.3 is a very old version. It no longer gets security updates and really shouldn’t be used.
