with the plugin?

available yet. What should I do now?
**A.:** In this case, to display your OPDS catalogue, you’ll first need to flush
your WordPress rewrite rules. In the WordPress admin dashboard, click Settings -
> Permalinks. Once here, just click Save Changes, which will flush the rewrite rules.
