API key saved but nothing happens #3

@martijndekuijper Sorry I took so long but I got around to testing the WP plugin and unfortunately it doesn't seem to be working.

I got the API key from getrevue but when I submit it nothing happens. The page reloads with the key still in the field, and it says Settings Saved but I have no way to get to more options.

That is on WP 5.3.x

Hi @jerclarke! Thanks for getting back. Once you set the API key you can then use the "widget" to place a subscribe form in the sidebar or use the shortcode [revue_subscribe] to add the form in your posts.

Ah ok! Well then I guess this ticket is still important: You should tell people what to do next once they have an API key. There's no description of what to do next, or any links that explain how the plugin works. It really seems like nothing happened.

Many plugins with an API key like this would change their UI once a valid key is in place, so I was waiting for that, and either way, this is a good place (mostly empty screen) for lots of details about how to use the plugin's features.
