Okay! So I upgraded again 3.7 and everything seems to be working properly in the control panel for plugins. I can search and the links work and can install them in 3.7. Thanks again Dion.

yes I’ve installed plugins but I’ve still got the downgraded 3.6.1 WordPress installed. I’ve not upgraded again to 3.7.

I couldn’t find any packages matching “PHP OpenSSL” so I’m not sure what’s not installed or how to install it.

Thanks for your assistance Dion it’s much appreciated!

I’m guessing there is something about the up date that is breaking the OpenSSL Toolkit… I’ve synchronized the repository databases and update the system’s packages (archlinux: pacman -Syu) had to then reboot the server as mysqld crashed… Checked in again with Dion’s plugin and got this simmialr output:

OpenSSL is installed as apache (and a lot more pkgs) depends on it…
What’s curious is that Dion’s plug in output says “OpenSSL/1.0.1e”, but installed is an updateded version: openssl 1.0.1.e-4?

So I downgraded Word press to 3.6.1 and resolved the problem in the control panel.

Now I can use the links from the plugins tab in the control panel, but wordpress jetpack plugin still can not communicate with SSL and OpenSSL appears broken in the repository (won’t install with “pacman -Su openssl”) ??

Oh well. I wonder if I build OpenSSL from source or pull from a user or test repository if it might install (?).

Dion thanks for the help… I installed your plug in and received the following message:
