 * How can I access the settings for this? I keep getting the following error even
   after updating to 3.7 and the respected (child) plugins listed below.
 * Failed to query WordPress.org Plugin Directory for the following plugin:
    - [`auto-sizes`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/auto-sizes/) (active)
    - [`dominant-color-images`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/dominant-color-images/)(
      active)
    - [`embed-optimizer`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/embed-optimizer/) (active)
    - [`image-prioritizer`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/image-prioritizer/) (active)
    - [`performant-translations`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/performant-translations/)(
      active)
    - [`speculation-rules`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/speculation-rules/) (active)
    - [`web-worker-offloading`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/web-worker-offloading/)(
      installed)
    - [`webp-uploads`](https://wordpress.org/plugins/webp-uploads/) (active)
 * The following error occurred:
    - Plugin not found in API response.
 * Please consider manual plugin installation and activation. You can then access
   each plugin’s settings via its respective “Settings” link on the Plugins screen.

 * This has been reported before in [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-found-9/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-found-9/)
 * Please review that issue.
 * We haven’t determined the cause for the why the WordPress.org API is not returning
   the expected results in your case.
 * Where is your site hosted?

 * I missed that original post on this issue. I’m hosted on Flywheel, which is also
   WPEngine.

 * I am having this same issue. I’ve tried the alpha release of the plugin 3.6.0-
   alpha, but I still have the same issue.

 * Actually, downgrading yields this screen:

 * Clicking activate on any of the items yields this:

 * Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. For reference, I too am hosted 
   on WP Engine.

 * I think this is something that y’all will need to contact WP Engine support about.
   We don’t have visibility into how they have implemented their plugin directory
   API so unfortunately we don’t have a way to debug this.
