object(WP_Error)#846 (2) – Plugin API Error

    I have been having numerous issues with WordPress and security for the past few months. After many attempts to remedy the issue, I just up and deleted everything (database, install, ect…) and decided to start fresh and take steps to prevent malware from making it’s way into my site.

    In doing so, I am now having another issue that I have never experienced before. Anytime I try to install ANY plugin I get this error message:

    object(WP_Error)#846 (2) { [“errors”]=> array(1) { [“plugins_api_failed”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(219) “An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with www.remarpro.com or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums.” } } [“error_data”]=> array(1) { [“plugins_api_failed”]=> string(82) “cURL error 7: Failed to connect to api.www.remarpro.com port 80: Connection timed out” } }

    Something went wrong with the plugin API.

    Any clue how to remedy it?

    Maybe a long shot but have you checked with your host to make sure the outbound connection isn’t being blocked for some reason?

    After trying numerous things over the course of several hours I gave up and went to bed. The site was being slow and laggy after the new install and trying to fix whatever the issue was was driving me crazy. Got on this afternoon and everything is writing prefect. I don’t know what resolved it, but I’ll take it. Thank you for your help.

    Any advice on keeping malware and viruses off WordPress? I just installed Wordfence (free, not premium yet) and I’m going to install the ‘ limit logins’ plugin as well. Just wanting to be as protected to keep it from happening again. I don’t want to start over again, just lost two years of work.

    Actually almost fixed… I have a required plug in that is still giving me the same error message. ‘Respond.js’. I was going to just downoad it off the wordpress site and install it myself, but I can’t even find it there?

    What it does and where to get it:

    I’m a little hesitant to download anything from a site that isn’t WordPress, but thank you.
