 * Hi, I use zara 4 in several sites with no issues. However, one of them doesn’t
   keep api credentials after being saved. I get the OK message after introducing
   credentials, but when I try to compress images I get again the message “Zara 
   4 needs to be setup before you can compress your images. Continue Setup”.
 * This is the site I used for trial, I could compress first images perfectly. I
   have a 5gb 1 time plan with 4.5 Gb remaining.

 * Hi Paliducho,
 * We’re having a bit of trouble replicating this issue at the moment. We believe
   it’s possible there may be some kind of configuration/permissions issue on your
   WP server or that the Zara 4 settings storage has been corrupted in some way.
 * Can I get you to please upgrade to our latest plugin v1.1.14. You can then reset
   the Zara 4 plugin settings by clicking the ‘Clear Settings’ button at the bottom
   of the Zara 4 plugin setting page. Then try re-entering your API credentials.
 * The latest update also provides an alternative settings storage method that should
   work as a fallback if there is a configuration problem.
 * I’ve checked your account and there’s no problem there, so we think it must be
   something to do with our WP plugin.
 * Let me know how you get on.
 * Friendly regards,
    Carl.

 * This is the site I used for trial. It looks like the problem comes from here,
   as I have no issue in any other site in this server or any other.
 * I did everything you suggested but didn’t work.
 * Thanks

 * Hi Paliducho,
 * We remain unable to replicate the issues you appear to be experiencing.
 * We believe this may be due to PHP not having the correct ‘write’ permissions 
   in the root directory for your WordPress site.
    Can I ask you again, to upgrade
   to our latest release 1.1.15. Try un-installing Zara 4 and re-installing the 
   new version from ‘fresh’.
 * Should the problem persist, we will need to have much greater knowledge of exactly
   the set-up you have used.
    We would need to know the operating system, PHP version
   and MYSQL version. Hopefully, by re-installing the new new fresh version, we 
   will have fixed the problems and this will not be necessary.
 * Let me know how you get on.
 * Friendly regards,
    Lisa

 * I’m sorry, no way. I did everything but nothing worked.
 * If you give me an email I can send you access admin to my site, ftp or whatever
   you need if this is useful for you.
 * Thank you very much

 * Hi Paliducho,
    If you send the details to [support@zara4.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/api-data-not-saved/support@zara4.com?output_format=md)
   I can get an engineer to look at it for you. We believe this is something to 
   do with your server settings, and with the ability to access your site, we should
   be able to find it. [support@zara4.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/api-data-not-saved/support@zara4.com?output_format=md)
   is a secure email address. Friendly regards, Lisa

 * Hi Paliducho,
 * thank you for your assistance with this issue. The problem seems to have been
   caused by the Zara 4 plugin settings being incorrectly cached by WordPress or
   another caching plugin on your server.
 * In our latest plugin v1.1.18 we have implemented a fix for this, so hopefully
   this is now resolved.
 * Let me know how you get on.
 * Friendly regards,
    Lisa
