Hey, Gary, thank you for your answer!

Unfortunately I have an error “syntax error, unexpected ‘-\>’ (T\_OBJECT\_OPERATOR)” for the following line:

`new \WPDiscourse\Utilities\PublicPluginUtilities()->discourse_request(`

The PHP version is 7.4, it must work. I don’t have the idea about the reason error occurs.
