 * I followed the installation instructions to a T, however the provided apps script
   had an issue preventing me from implementing the plugin. It always errored out
   with a 404.
 * Line 25: `var acceptResponseJSON = JSON.parse(acceptResponse.getContentText());`
   
   Returns this error:`SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<', "<!doctype "... is not
   valid JSON`
 * Therefore I believe the URL on line 21 is wrong, or that the plugin has an issue
   with self-hosting.
 * The url I was given was: [https://placeholder-domain.org/wp2020/wp-json/wpgsi/accept](https://placeholder-domain.org/wp2020/wp-json/wpgsi/accept)

      Reason: url formatting
