    Using the a fresh install of the WP v3.9, and the latest download of this plugin.
    When I try to set the API Key in the config, I get redirected to a white screen.
    When I check the ajax console, I see an internal server error 500 relating to the ajax call.
    Any ideas on where to begin fixing this?
    I look forward to trying out and using this addon, but need it to work first ??

    I will have to look into this. Thank you for letting me know!

    Thank you for your quick response. I look forward to any update. Honestly, I would be happy for a version without the AJAX verification. Could just return an error once the form is submitted instead.

    I’m unable to reproduce the issue in fresh installs of WP 3.9.1 on my local WAMP stack and my remote Linux server.

    My best educated guess will be that you do not have cURL in PHP. Here’s a simple way to check:

    1. Install and activate WP-ServerInfo
    2. Go to Dashboard > WP-ServerInfo
    3. At the center-top of the page, click the Display PHP Information link
    4. Look for the curl section
    5. If you can’t find it, you don’t have it installed. If you did find the curl section, copy all the information in the section and post it here.

    If you do not have cURL installed, you will need to install it in order to use the Challonge plugin with an API key.

    I hope this helps. ??

    sure enough that was the problem. Installed cURL, restarted the webserver and BOOM! Thanks much.

    Thank you for your patience! I’m glad I could help you resolve the issue! ??

    As a result of this issue, I’m adding checks in version 1.1.3 to prevent the redirecting issue you experienced and it will spit out notices and errors instead when cURL isn’t there. I’ll also add a note about the cURL requirement in the plugin page description.

    The aforementioned changes have been made in version 1.1.3. ??
