Curl Required?

  • I just installed this plugin and tried to test it, but when I visited the page into which I inserted the shortcode, it generated a fatal PHP error. The error is as follows:

    PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function curl_init() in /var/www/wp-content/plugins/advanced-xml-reader/curl.php on line 58, referer: https://www.example.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=2&action=edit&message=1

    I guess that means the cURL is required in order to use this plugin, and that I don’t have cURL enabled on my server.

    Is there a particular reason you’re using cURL rather than utilizing the built-in HTTP API in WordPress? Thank you.

    Hi Curtiss,
    I’ve never seen that article. It sounds very promising. I’m going to read it and let you know if it’s possible to use this instead of cURL.

    Many thanks!

    Today, I released an update for this plugin. From now it uses the WordPress HTTP API. The new version is called 0.3.3 and will be available in a few hours.
