 * Hi,
 * I have linked up the shortcode generated out the backend into the end of an article
   and from about 15 attempts I was only able to receive the desired result once.
 * On submission, I am redirected to a page displaying WP_Error. The ticket into
   Zendesk is still being created. Any ideas?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fconsistent-submission-errors%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@hemindesai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hemindesai/),
 * I’ve just pushed an update for the plugin which will show more of the error message
   from WP_Error. Please could you update to version 2.9.2?
 * After doing so, if you try adding your email address to this option – [https://i.imgur.com/5akRWXz.png](https://i.imgur.com/5akRWXz.png)–
   some extra information about the WP_Error will be emailed to you. Please do that,
   then try submitting another ticket and let me know the error message in the email.

 * Hi [@pipdig](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pipdig/),

 * Ah we’ll need to add a little more context to that. Sorry I should have accounted
   for this in the previous update. I’ve just pushed update 2.9.3 now, please go
   ahead and update once more then try submitting a ticket. That should show the
   full error log in the email message this time 🙂

 * Hi [@pipdig](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pipdig/),
 * Thank you! I have updated and run again, here is the error received by email:
   `
   WP_Error Message: cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10001 milliseconds
   with 0 bytes received`

 * Ah that’s more like it!
 * This error means that the server is taking longer than 10 seconds to receive 
   a response from the Zendesk API, which unusual. It should really take a few seconds
   at most. Your server is timing out after 10 seconds, which must be the connection
   limit.
 * This could mean that the receiving connection from Zendesk is being blocked at
   your end. Are you running any security plugins or a firewall which might be doing
   that?
 * It could be worth checking if cURL is up to date on the server too.

 * unfortunately, this makes complete sense.
 * We have been having trouble with Zendesk for quite some time with the time which
   is taken to process the tickets. I think at this point we are averaging 11/12
   seconds per API request.
 * I suppose that I would have to wait for Zendesk to resolve this before I can 
   continue.
 * Really appreciate your support on this, thank you!

 * Ah ok, hopefully you can get it working with them!
 * Another thing you could try is to increase the timeout for cURL requests. Currently
   it is limited to 10 seconds. You could increase that to 15-20 seconds as a quick
   fix. Ideally you want to get that response time down to 1-2 seconds though.
