Hello! I got this plugin working. (well…sort of*)
What was your issue? In my case, this is the output the widget gave me after configuring:
Something went wrong: cURL error 6: Could not resolve host: myforum.comlatest.json
The simple fix for this was to add a slash in the widget settings at the end of forum’s URL, so instead of myforumsurl.com you type in myforumsurl.com/ as it seems there is a simple typo in the plugin itself. The plugin calls for myforumsurl.com/latest.json.
HOVEVER as I’ve mentioned in the beginning, I got it sorta working, but not really. The widget is only visible to my admin account, it disappears as I log out, it isn’t showing for lower level accounts either. I have no idea how to fix this one. Good luck.
