Not able to Smush, Error posting to API

@einarso, Seems related to hosting.

No one else has reported it, so I’m guessing it’s particular to your setup.

Can you possibly contact your hosting provider about the same, and see what they have to say about it.

Cheers, Umesh

I am hosting the server myself… not had any problems with other services/plugins.

Here is a screenshot of the error:

Hi Umesh,

We are also having the same issue on at least 4 different sites that we have tested so far. When doing a bulk smush they all come back with the below repeating errors. We are using the newest version of Smush It

@ einarso, Quick Google search tells me that you might have to reconfigure the SSL and the certificates over your server.

Where are you hosting your VPS?

@slickrockweb, Can you possibly check into this. This is something related to server config: https://arashmilani.com/post?id=21

Well – I am not using an ssl on my server. Why would the plugin require ssl? I guess the pictures are sent over the net for processing, but there should at least be an option to not use ssl. All of my pictures are a part of my picture database because I am publishing them on the net so I am not worried about having the comunication secured at all…

I am running a private mac mini server on a static ip from my internet provider.

@einarso, You can add this define( 'WP_SMUSH_API_HTTP', 'https://smushpro.wpmudev.org/1.0/' ); in your config file.

Plugin will use the above specified URL in that case, that should work fine for you.

Thanks

Umesh, can you walk me through this? I am having the same trouble.

Error Posting to API: 0

Adding the code to my config file helped me. Thanx ??

@hustlebus, Can you please open a new thread? So that we don’t end up spamming others.

As @einarso’s, issue is already fixed and the error you posted seems to be completely different.

Appreciate your co-operation in here.

Thanks
