Set allow_url_fopen = On in php.ini. Get more info here

That is the proper way. However allow_url_include needs to be set to true in your php.ini.

Your PHP version need to be >= 4.3.0.

You need to enable the "allow_url_fopen" in your php.ini file:

allow_url_fopen = On

I suggest you to read on the include function in php.net.
