• Im on a windows machine running XAMPP and after i install the plugin on the plugin setting page this shows up. I created the localhost:90-settings.dat in the respective folder and gave it security permissions for everyone to full control. Still this shows up and I am unable to use this plugin.

    I looked at the 2 posts that match my problem, but both were closed without any replies.

    Settings file does not exist. You will need to manually create this file by using these commands:
    mkdir D:\xampp\htdocs\crestintranet\wp-content\plugins\combine-js/tmp/localhost:90-settings.dat;
    chmod 666 D:\xampp\htdocs\crestintranet\wp-content\plugins\combine-js/tmp/localhost:90-settings.dat;

    Hello,

    I haven’t used the plugin on Windows running XAMPP. I may be able to try it out in the next few weeks. I suspect that the is_writable function returns false for the path to the settings file. I will keep this open and let you know when I have a version to test. Would you be willing to help me test this out?

    Thanks,

    Tim

    Thanks Tim for looking into it and will surely work with you on this.

    One thing however I noticed is that when I look for the .dat file in the folder its missing but when I paste the entire folder path from the settings view in the explorer bar it shows some json of whats stored. So might be a windows thing but would be great if we can resolve this together.
