Images still locked

Hi,

Hope you can help me out yet again.
I’m using a plugin for extended user profiles (UPME).
This plugin stores users profile pictures in wp-content/uploads/upme.

Your plugin is causing a problem here I think. Even when logged in, the profile pictures are not displayed. Even though I excluded image files from being locked.

My UAM settings:
Locked files : Yes
Download type : Fopen
Locked file type > File types not to lock: gif,jpg,jpeg,png
.htaccess password : random

The only fix I found was excluding the UPME path in .htaccess like this:
RewriteRule ^(upme)($|/) – [L]

But updating your plugin restores the old htaccess file.

Do you have a more permanent fix for me?

Thanks!
