Thanks for > reporting this issue. * Yes I can confirm that. * Now I’ve just upgraded to 2.85 and it’s still working, but I’m not game to disconnect it as would assume the same issue would arise on reconnecting it again 🙂 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Disqus Comment System] Unable to connect to the Disqus API servers](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-connect-to-the-disqus-api-servers-7/) * [Bron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/squireb/) * (@squireb) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-connect-to-the-disqus-api-servers-7/#post-7354153) * I just found that grabbing version 2.83 works ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/disqus-comment-system/developers/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/disqus-comment-system/developers/)), so may be a suitable workaround for now, at least for me as I’m on my way to moving to another platform, anyway). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Disqus Comment System] Unable to connect to the Disqus API servers](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-connect-to-the-disqus-api-servers-7/) * [Bron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/squireb/) * (@squireb) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-connect-to-the-disqus-api-servers-7/#post-7354152) * Hi, same issue here, too, and not a multisite install. I’m running on Azure. I have confirmed I have no issues connecting to the API using curl (assuming this is the right way to do this, I’m fairly new to curl usage): * > curl [http://disqus.com:80](http://disqus.com:80) D:\home\site\wwwroot % Total% Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed * 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 –:–:– –:–:– –:–:– 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 –:–:– –:–:– –:–:– 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 –:–:– –:–:– –:–:– 0 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP-Polls] [Plugin: WP-Polls] Allow users to add own answer](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-polls-allow-users-to-add-own-answer/) * [Bron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/squireb/) * (@squireb) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-polls-allow-users-to-add-own-answer/#post-2939199) * I’m in need of this functionality at the moment, as well, did anyone find a way to do this with existing WP-Polls functionality, or was it difficult to customise the plugin to add this? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Multiple Widgets in Different Sidebars](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-widgets-in-different-sidebars/) * [Bron](https://wordpress.org/support/users/squireb/) * (@squireb) * [16 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-widgets-in-different-sidebars/#post-973817) * Hi, * Did you manage to solve your issue?
