load_taxa(server = "https://fishbase.ropensci.org/sealifebase") not loading sealifebase #117

load_taxa loads a cached copy by default, somehow seems like when loading from cache it's using fishbase regardless of the server argument.

Hi Carl, I am a newcomer to rfishbase (and Github), and have had this problem - even when I specify sealifebase using the sample code, it gets fish names from fishbase:

common_to_sci("king crab", server = "http://fishbase.ropensci.org/sealifebase") [1] "Glyptocephalus cynoglossus"

Have you been able to resolve this? Many thanks, Emily

Can you try using the version installed from GitHub? This is a bug in the cran version but should be fixed on the GitHub one

Thanks Carl - have done so, and it seems to be working. Thanks for your quick reply.

Great, thanks for confirming. The patched version should be on CRAN now.
