Hello,

We are investigating the issue and will get back to you soon.

Thank you for your patience in this matter.

Hello,

Please add the following code in the functions.php file of your current theme or child theme:

function mts_set_curl_cipher( $handle ) {
    curl_setopt( $handle, CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST, 'RSA_AES_128_CBC_SHA1' );
}
add_action( 'http_api_curl', 'mts_set_curl_cipher', 10, 1 );

You can use a FTP client to edit the file, or add it directly in WP Admin > Themes > Editor > functions.php. I recommend creating a backup before making any changes.

Please try activating the plugin again after adding the code.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

What is happening here is that your site is trying to connect to MyThemeShop servers but failing because the connection method your server is using is too old.

What needs to be updated is cURL (7.63) and OpenSSL. This should be updated not only for the functionality of MyThemeShop and your SSL connections but for the security of your site in general as well.

If you are not hosting the site yourself you will need to reach out to your host and ask them to update cURL.

Can you please get back to them?

Also, our recommended hosting, SiteGround offers the latest versions of all the Software.

Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
