I'm trying to implement an API script on my Wordpress Blog that will allow the use of a new WP-Smugmug API.

In order to use this plugin, the script requires the use of "fopen". My hosting server is requesting the following information:

-The IP and the port of the remote server that your script need to connect to

Is this something someone can help me with?

I need the IP address and the port for the server that hosts my Smugmug site I guess???

    I don't really understand what you are doing at all. But, if what you are trying to do is to call Smugmug's APIs, then you would need the IP address of api.smugmug.com. You can see that yourself with the windows command line "ping api.smugmug.com". When I do that, it shows me: 63.81.134.23 which is the IP address of the server at api.smugmug.com.

    The Smugmug API calls are all standard web calls so they work on port 80, the standard web port.

    Now, none of this sounds like it matches up to what I know of an "fopen call" so if this isn't what you are need, then folks will need more information on what you are really trying to do.

    off topic FYI, this is a perfect example of what I was suggesting you fix in your help pages. You can't easily send someone a link that has the proper section of the help page showing. Instead, you have to send them a link and tell them to expand a specific section so they can see the info you want. This could definitely be easier to use for both you and the viewer.
