Fix the wp_remote_get() failed

-

Some plugins will test for it and return a result of 'failed'. However, the plugin itself may be the cause. One plugin was giving me error for wp_remote_get() so I started to test if server had curl installed, then I checked the php.ini file for Allow_url_include = on and then checked if wp_remote_get worked in a different plugin. It did.
Lesson learned, save yourself time by first checking that the wordpress plugin that is claiming your server doesn't work is actually correct. Or, if you feel like modifying the plugins code to fix it, you could go to file editor and look for the test function and change the URL being used with one that is still live and able to return data.

Fix for MagicDisc driver mcdbus.inf not signed

Open the folder where you extracted the files. Copy the mcdbus.inf file and paste it into these two folder locati

Fix Woozone Import Synchronization test fails at Step 1

-
The problem may be an easy fix for you as it was for me! Turns out that I had entered my Amazon AWS credentials into their appropriate boxes under Amazon config tab and hit the Save button. I knew the information was correct because I had copied and pasted from my AWS console directly. How ever, that is the wrong way to do it because Woozone won't work unless you hit the Test button and it shows Success. Then you hit Save button. And go back to server status and check import synchronization test again. It passes Step 1 now.
