 * Hi,
 * Is there any way to modify the plugin’s default timeout (if there is one). For
   example with a code snippet in the wp-config file. I’m having trouble with a 
   slow JSON API call not responding using the plugin.
 * Thank you
    Martin

 * Hi [@martinsjolund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/martinsjolund/),
 * Could you elaborate on what exactly happens? Are you sure that’s the plugin hitting
   the limit and not your server hitting the execution time limit?

 * I’m fetching data from an API with an URL. There are two URLs and the first one
   works fine but the second one seems to time-out after loading for about 5s. The
   server logs say that the request is aborted by the plugin. The API is set to 
   time-out after 30s, so I’m sure it’s not the server who’s hitting a limit.
 * The request works sometimes, when there is cached data to access. I would like
   to test changing the time-out of the plugin to 10s if that is possible.

 * Hi [@martinsjolund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/martinsjolund/),
 * Please share the URL of the API that you’re using to replicate the issue.
 * With the plugin settings of the plugin, you cannot control the timeout time.
 * Thanks!
