    Hi all,

    I wasn’t able to even “Search” or “Add New” plug-ins to my WordPress site with LEGENDA theme installed.
    It idles for a while and then ends up with this error:

    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.

    This error is very generic and i already contacted my hosting provider, apparently there was no issues with the web server / physical machine.

    Just a day ago it was working fine. Could anyone help/ assist as im not a technical person.

    admin: You can find my WPadmin details in the private content section, the theme was installed & configured by 8theme as well. Could you please kindly help me?

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Hello,

    This problem isn’t related to our theme. The warning you are getting is “WordPress could not establish a secure connection to WordPress.org. Please contact your server administrator.) in /home/egadget2/public_html/wp-admin/includes/plugin-install.php on line 77”.
    You should ask your host to check the connection settings, maybe they are using some proxy settings as well.

    Regards,
    Eva Kemp.
