Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in /users/my name/www/wp-content/plugins/userpro/lib/envato/Envato_marketplaces.php on line 374

You already mentioned that cURL needs to be enabled and the error seems to be about cURL but what do I need to do now? I checked the “Envato_marketplace.php” on line 374 and it says:

$ch = curl_init($url);

I presume that this is the line that checks if cURL is active?

I already read articles and tutorials but it’s soo complicated. Some say you need to have a php.ini.
I didn’t have the file, so I created one but what now? I read that you are supposed to add this line in the php.ini to make it work: ;extension=php_curl.dll ,nothing happened. I also read through the comment section on codecanyon and there was a user before that said you need to install it by doing this:

I just installed it thus:

sudo service apache2 restart

Do I have to add these lines to the php.ini? I’m confused

I also checked all the server stats from my host with this code in a php file:
<? phpinfo(); ?> There is not one single line about cURL. All I know is that they use Linux.
They however, refuse to do any kind of modifications for individual users. Am I able to solve this problem by creating a php.ini,etc.? I hope you can help me with this Ahmed

This is really frustrating, I just want to get started working with this amazing plugin.

Thanks!

Means curl must be enabled and activated first. Please ask your host to enable. It’s indeed frustrating to have curl disabled. Here’s a source to confirm the issue is from webhost.

That’s not the plugin error I am sorry.

You can verify it manually without cURL!

Execute that code in functions.php and make sure it’s run

You can mark this thread as solved

Thanks again!
