DandyID plugin on WordPress 2.7 doesn't work at all
I can't get it to work.
Using WordPress 2.7, the plugin shows the following behaviour :
1. when clicking save in the options, I get a blank page. Is this normal? Is it not supposed to return to the options page?
2. In the themes/widgets page, I added the widget and it now appears as "%BEG_OF_TITLE%Contacts%END_OF_TITLE%". I can no longer remove it and it breaks my widget bar.
Any ideas? I tried version 1.0.8 and the latest version, but I get the same behaviour.
In advance, thanks. For the moment I have to disable the plugin in order to keep my site running.

Inappropriate?Here's a follow up.
I disabled the plugin and then resaved the widgets layout.
Then I re-enabled the plugin and added DandyID, and it appears correctly in the widgets layout configuration page;
However, it still breaks my widget bar in my pages :
<di_v class="widget dandyIDServices_widget"><h3>Contacts</h3>
<!-- Page not cached by WP Super Cache. No closing HTML tag. Check your theme. -->
What are the requirements in the PHP modules for this plugin ?
(I renamed "div" to "di_v" on purpose in order for you to see what was going on)</di_v> -

Inappropriate?Hi EViollet,
I'm glad you were able to get this working.
Just curious (so I can help others in the future):
1) How did you know you were missing php-curl?
2) What did you do to get the php-curl working?
3) Are you running your blog on Linux or Windows?
Thanks, Neil -
Inappropriate?First of all I looked at my generated pages, and figured that something was missing that was causing an abort of the page generation. I hinted that I was missing some function.
So then I looked at the DandyID php pages and looked at the function calls in there. I was intrigued by the calls to curl so checked if I had php-curl installed. Bingo! It wasn't! I installed it and it worked!
I installed it using the Mandriva RPM manager. Which should also answer your third question! ;)
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Emmanuel, thanks for taking the time to explain this. This helps my understanding so I can help others with this. Neil

Inappropriate?I'd rather there be a version of this plugin which doesn't require curl and would work say using fopen and streams.

Hi catudatemen,
We will look in to using fopen() in the future, but for now, we are only able to support cURL. Thanks, Neil
