PHP Fatal Error when api.contentclick.co.uk is down

    The function cc_api_request() in contentclick/includes/functions.php makes an API call to api.contentclick.co.uk, via the WP_Http class

    If this API call fails, then a WP_Error object comes back…. which the code in cc_api_request() is not anticipating – and it attempts to access it as an array. Result: PHP Fatal Error.

    $request = new WP_Http;
        $result = $request->request( $url.$query_string_post );
        if(isset($result['body'])){

    i.e. if api.contentclick.co.uk is down, then your WordPress site will go down too. 🙁

    PHP Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in wp-content/plugins/contentclick/includes/functions.php on line 20
