No one should give anyone access to their installation that way. * Thread Starter [espreson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/espreson/) * (@espreson) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-6159829) * [@urkekg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urkekg/) how to resolve this server issue? * Plugin Author [Aleksandar Urošević](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urkekg/) * (@urkekg) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-6159846) * [@jan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jan/) Dembowsky: Thank you for note, it was helpful. I appreciate it and understand point. * Unfortunately, I ask for admin access only when there is issue I can’t figure out from details and reports provided by latest version of plugin (like in this case, as I did not predict to wp_remote_get() fail to communicate with googleapis. com because server limitations/restrictions). * IMHO, it’s better to help user if I can, than to say “I can’t help”, even if that requires temporary dashboard access. There was only one user who denied to provide dashboard access (email support), and that is OK. But, I’ll consider that in the future. * These cases help me to improve plugin and try to make it available for all users/ servers. Also, these cases makes better FAQ. * And, at the end, not all users are developers; sometime is faster to do homework by myself, than to spend ten days training user to master WordPress. * One more detail. As I often use premium plugins and themes, their support often request admin access, sometime even FTP access. And that is legit if I need to know what’s wrong with plugin/theme. So I though it’s Ok to do same for free plugins. But, will consider that in future. * Once more time, thank you for that note. * Plugin Author [Aleksandar Urošević](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urkekg/) * (@urkekg) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-6159847) * [@espreson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/espreson/) Contact server/hosting support and ask them why [wp_remote_get](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_remote_get) from WordPress does not work. * [Andrew Nevins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anevins/) * (@anevins) * WCLDN 2018 Contributor | Volunteer support * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-6159848) * I don’t know if it’s just me, but it sounds like you’re taking the point lightly. Maybe because Jan was so polite. * It’s a serious point. * Plugin Author [Aleksandar Urošević](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urkekg/) * (@urkekg) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-6159852) * [@andrew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrew/) I’m sorry if you see my explanation about why I asked for dashboard access as “taking the point lightly”. I just trying to be polite and detailed. * So, to be short and clear, I’ll note again: **I will not ask users of my free plugins for dashboard access in the future.** Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) The topic ‘Error: Oops, something went wrong’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/youtube-channel/assets/icon.svg?rev=2845692) * [My YouTube Channel](https://wordpress.org/plugins/youtube-channel/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/youtube-channel/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/youtube-channel/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/youtube-channel/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/youtube-channel/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/youtube-channel/reviews/) * 8 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [Aleksandar Urošević](https://wordpress.org/support/users/urkekg/) * Last activity: [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-6159852) * Status: not a support question
