Unable to enter API key

    Hey there,
    I installed the plugin on a website and signed up for the api key, which I have. Now in backend of website it says ‘Compress JPEG & PNG images: Please fill in an API key to start compressing images.
    Great – but when I click on that notification, it just goes away and I have nowhere to enter in the API key. I’ve turned off adblock and any chrome extensions that might somehow interfere but nothing. Any thoughts? What is the code to tie it right into the wp-config file? I don’t mind doing that if I have to as a work around.
    Thanks!

    Hi,

    It seems that you have downloaded an early version of 1.3.0 where the link in the notice was not working correctly. You can copy the link and paste in your address bar. You can also go in the Admin to the page via the menu Settings -> Media and set the API key yourself. An alternative is to define it in your wp-config.php file. Via define('TINY_API_KEY', 'YOUR_KEY');

    If you want the released version of 1.3.0 you have to remove the plugin and reinstall it. No data will be lost by doing so. Other than that the versions are completely the same. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for getting back to us.

    Thanks for that. Didn’t even think of just copying the link and trying that. Worked like a charm. Thank you for the quick feedback!
