i have a setup on a droplet that have ubuntu 16 + nginx + php7 i installed Wordpress and everything was fine, until i installed plugin that connects to some API’s…
the plugin gives me error saying (wp_remote_get() failed. Webservices won’t work with your server. Contact your hosting provider. Error: Could not resolve host: xxx.xxx.xxxx )
so how could i enable wp_remote_get(), i searched a lot till i knew its something related to CURL, which i have installed before and fully functional, any ideas ??
