 * Installation of smip worked fine, and also the settings work. but the icons do
   not show up.
    There is a hint to visit the FAQ area becasue of cURL problems (
   Error 56). I did that, but without finding big help ther(“curl issue, please 
   contact your server admin”).
 * I checked with php info and all seems to be ok:
    cURL support: enabled cURL information:
   7.50.3 IDN, IPv6, Largefile, NTLM, SSL, libz: all supported protocols: ftp, ftps,
   http, https, dict, file, gopher, telnet, rtsp, tftp and the mail protocols are
   supported
 * PHP version is 5.3.29
 * The hoster is Strato, package is PowerWeb Plus.
 * On another server (managed server with OVH) the plugin works nicely. So I guess
   it must be a communication/server issue.
 * Wat is needed and missing? Are special php.ini settings required?
    Anything I
   could ask the hoster to do? Where and how could I get more details about the 
   issue (log files, special php info files, …)?
 * Thanks for the great plugin. And I really would like to use it on the Strato 
   server also 😉
    Regards Hans
