In change log in 2.3.1,there is a new item “http channel test status” in system status panel.
And the status is “Not runned yet”

Is there any way to let it run?
Thanks

this is probably a total guess on my part,
I have a hunch that is intended to test whether the data “channels” such as to/from social media, perhaps even Jetpack, actually are functional via some kind of API ping.

I could be wrongo-reindeer on that as one of my employees used to say. 🙂

Hi

The HTTP channel test runs only if needed, for example when gets some information about a video from youtube/vimeo or the likes number from facebook. The theme gets remote information through three channels: http://screencast.com/t/ll8pdssgmo and depending on the host uses the one that works best.
You don’t need to worry about the that, the channel status it will change when the HTTP channel test runs for the first time.

Thanks!
