API outdated?

    Hello,

    Just a heads up, it seems like Yelp is changing their API from Yelp 2.0 to Yelp Fusion. It was difficult for me to find my API keys since the links in your settings no longer work. I eventually navigated my way to this page where I was able to find them: https://www.yelp.com/developers/v2/manage_api_keys

    From the Yelp blog:

    “With our continued focus on new and improved functionality in Yelp Fusion, we are going to start ramping down work on public API v2. Thus, we will disable new v2 API signups on April 1, but current API v2 keys will continue to work. As soon as we’ve established a timeline for shutting down API v2, we will share it with the community and ensure that everyone has sufficient time to transition their applications.”

    https://engineeringblog.yelp.com/2017/02/recent-improvements-to-the-fusion-api.html

    It sounds like widgets on API 2.0 might eventually stop working though? Will we need to re-generate Fusion keys for all of our widgets?

    Thanks!

    Yes, we’ve been watching their development. It’s not totally clear what they are thinking with these drastic changes to their API but we are planning to update our plugin soon and will do the best to keep all current functionality and even add more when possible.

    We’ll get the docs updated as well. Thanks!
