    I love this plug-in so much, I may just deactivate it when I have to update and install new plugins. Then turn it on again.

    I don’t want to though. It gives me the error code:

    “Warning: An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums. (WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in /public_html/pcs/wp-admin/includes/plugin-install.php on line 165”

    I’m running 4.8, any thoughts?

    Hi @scriblit

    Thanks for contacting us and glad you like the plugin.

    I’m not sure why you would be getting this error from our plugin as it doesn’t do anything to suppress the normal working of the server or the plugin installation/update process.

    The warning seems to point to a server configuration issue.

    Out of interest, what version of PHP are you running? Also, are you using SSL and are you running any caching plugins?

    Another thing you might want to try is below from https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/120043/an-unexpected-error-occurred-something-may-be-wrong-with-wordpress-org-or-this:

    1) Login to “Cpanel” of Your Hosting
    2) Goto “Health Checks and Monitoring”
    3) Click “Port 80”
    4) Check if its Blocked:
    a) YES >> Delete files which may be listed there
    b) NO >> Contact your Hosting Support
    5) if 4a >> Click unblock the port, It might take couple of min/hrs to get unblocked

    Please let us know if that helps.

    Regards,

    Artem
